September 18th
female, medium, adult
DESCRIPTION
Honey is an approximately 3-year-old spayed female Northern cross who looks a little like a miniature Husky or a white Shepherd mix.
Honey is completely blind, but don’t let that fool you—her lack of sight doesn’t slow this amazing girl down much at all! Once she settles into a home, Honey quickly learns the layout and becomes surprisingly confident navigating her surroundings.
House trained & crate trained
Good with calmer dogs
Has been good with the cats she has met
No known allergies & a good eater
Very loving and affectionate
Because Honey is blind, she would do best in a quieter home with older children or no children. She can become excited and will jump up on people for love and attention, something her foster family is patiently working on with her.
Honey does well with other calm dogs who understand that they shouldn’t jump on or bump into her. She enjoys going for walks on a long leash in open spaces, where she can take her time sniffing and experiencing the world around her.
Honey is comfortable going up stairs, although she is understandably nervous about going down them.
This sweet girl has so much love to give and deserves a peaceful, patient and loving forever home where she can feel safe and continue to thrive.
Honey is a terrific girl looking for her forever family. Could that be you?
