Yes! Cats? Yes! Kids? Yes! 6+ History I was found as a stray and landed in a rough, dismal shelter in Kentucky. Very hard for any dog, but especially for a blind dog who can’t see what’s going on. One of the volunteers there felt so badly for me and so he bought me a special Halo device to help me navigate better which was terrific!

I was driven all the way up here by the two nicest KY rescue workers and have been having a fabulous time in my…

Kids? 10+ calm History I used to have a family, and lived with other dogs, but my owners ran into hard times, couldn’t feed us very well (I was very skinny) and eventually had to surrender us to their local shelter in Kentucky. That was very sad and also very scary, because I heard a lot of people say that the shelter was overcrowded and that older dogs never get picked for adoption. I just hid my head under my paws and waited for the end to come. But wow, how life can change on a dime! The shelter staff saw what a total sweetheart I was, and when CDR contacted them with an opening…

Our incredibly sweet little epileptic beagle girl zoey, whose seizures had previously been controlled well with medicine for the past 3-4 months, had to be rushed to Cornell ER late last night for the second time this week with uncontrollable seizures. The Cornell docs were able to stabilize her with IV medicines the first time this happened, a few nights ago, but she seized again a day later, and then last night went into nonstop seizures for hours that they could not fully stop despite massive amounts of IV valium and IV phenobarbitol. I…
