Hi there! It's me, Ava! Yes, I have that adorable squishy pug face, and I'm a middle-aged lady who is soft in every possible way.
I was found wandering all alone in Calumet City. I'm a tiny girl in a big world, and it's even bigger when you can't see it very well. We think I'm blind or close to it, but what I know for sure is that I navigate with my heart. The shelter was a bit too much for me with all the noise and fast pace, so a rescue stepped in to help.
I'm not a high-maintenance diva at all! I'm a calm, docile, and snuggly lady. I move slowly, listen carefully, and once I memorize the shape of a room, I'm good to go! I'll toddle around like I own the place. What I really want is a person – someone patient, steady, and kind, who doesn't mind being my eyes. I'll follow your voice, lean into your legs, and curl up with you like we've known each other forever. I'm the kind of dog who bonds deeply. I'm not flashy or chaotic, just loyal, devoted, and all yours. If you have a quiet home and an open heart, I think we might be a perfect match. I'd love to be your solo love bug for now, so I'm looking for a home without other pets or kids.
An update from my foster family: I'm quite the attention seeker! If I hear your voice, I'll happily jump up to find you. I absolutely LOVE food and can get a little impatient if my bowl takes too long to prepare – I might even grumble a little! But don't worry, I love to cuddle and be close to my people. Can this girl get any cuter? We can't imagine what you went through when you faced uncertainty and were blind. Our hearts broke for you. We had to keep you safe and give you a chance at finding a loving home. Will you foster or adopt me? Please apply! I need your love and care.
