Woo

I have been deployed to Iraq, and my wife is having a hard time handling our 15 dogs. She can’t give them the attention they deserve, and is looking for good homes for several of them. The home must be a loving, caring home. We were able to handle the situation when there were two of of us to give them the attention they deserve, but my wife works full time and she isn’t able to handle it alone.

Kelsey, who more readily responds to WOOO, is around 5 years old, and is most likely a miniature pinscher mix. As you may be able to see, she needs to lose some weight! She weighs around 45lbs and should weigh around 35lbs. If she were in a home where she could be walked on a semi-regular basis, the weight would come right off! Woo is very sweet and loving, housebroken, spayed, and just wanting to cuddle, love you, and go for walks. She gets along with other dogs, and I believe she would do well with children, but probably not ear-pulling toddlers. Cats would be OK after introduction. Woo got along with our bird who was not caged just fine once it was explained to her that she was not allowed to touch the bird.

Sweetie is a golden retriever, possibly collie mix, around 5 years old and 65 lbs. She is housebroken, spayed, happy, and loving, and she needs to lose a few pounds. She will require a home with extra love though. Sweetie has macular degeneration, and we have been told she will eventually go blind. We have had her over 3 years which is longer than we were told she would be able to see, and she can still see. It is obvious she cannot see well, as she will bump into things once in a while (I took this picture today, and you can tell she is looking right at me). We took Sweetie in because we like to help the dogs with special needs. She was the first “going blind” dog that we took in. After her, we took one in that was totally blind (that poor girl found a good, loving home!), and that is when I realized that a dog with impaired sight ideally should not be in a large group of dogs. Sweetie gets insecure when all of the other dogs are around her and they bump into her. She does fine with a couple of dogs, but 14 running around her are too much for her to handle. For that reason, we often keep Sweetie alone, and that is not a good situation for her either. When going to a strange environment, Sweetie will need time to adjust to the floors, yard, etc. If she is about to step on an unfamiliar surface, you have to be patient with her until she learns it is safe. Sweetie would not do well with younger dogs or puppies jumping on her. Once she adjusts, she is fine. I did learn with the one completely bind dog that we had that blind dogs do just fine. They smell and listen to their world carefully, and enjoy it! Sweetie has an adorable way of cocking her head when she is listening. Sweetie would do best with older children and no cats.

Greta was found in the woods recently. She’s a puppy and is just becoming used to humans, but she loves them.

Buddy: Black lab mix, 4 years old, 60 lbs, housebroken, highly intelligent, neutered, and he would love nothing more than to have an owner that can cuddle with him, play Frisbee or ball with him, take him for walks, and take him into their heart. Buddy is full or personality. He gets along well with other dogs, but would probably do best in a home without a strong, alpha male. Buddy is truly sweet and loving and waiting to have fun with his human. I believe Buddy would do well with children of all ages and most likely cats. Buddy got along with our un-caged bird fine, once he was told to leave the bird alone.

Sticks earned her name because when I found her on the side of the road, she was nothing but a pile of sticks with skin and fur attached. Her gums were cool to the touch and white. I believe I found her a day or two before she would have died from starvation. She is a hound mix (?), possibly with Rottweiler, 2 years old, 50 lbs, housebroken, spayed, and also highly intelligent. She would do best as an only dog or in a home with only one or two other dogs. She gets along with my other dogs, but she may have a tendency to get aggressive with other dogs (she is very submissive to people). I have not seen a major problem yet, but I believe the possibility exists. I know this hurts her chances of finding a home, but I believe in being honest about a dog’s tendencies. She is very shy to start with, but she is a dog that so wants to be cuddled and loved once she feels comfortable with you. Sticks would do best with older children and no cats.
