If there was ever a dog who deserved a fresh start, it's Bindi. Bindi came to us after being surrendered to a local county shelter by her previous owner. It was immediately clear that she hadn't received the care she needed for a very long time, so when we learned she was there we rushed to bring her into our rescue and get her the TLC she needed and find her the forever home she deserves.
Bindi is about 10 years old and weighs 14 pounds. She is the definition of a cuddle bug who loves being close to her people and has a wonderful way of returning every bit of love she's given. She's also very food motivated, and if treats are involved, you'll see an extra spring in her step! Bindi does well with other dogs, especially calm pups who enjoy naps, leisurely strolls, and relaxing together. She has a gentle and easygoing personality and is happiest when she's somewhere cozy with the people she loves.
Ideal Home
Her ideal home will be with someone who has senior dog experience and is excited to give an older dog the comfortable, loving retirement she's earned.
Ongoing Health
While at the previous shelter, Bindi came down with a bad case of kennel cough which thankfully has now resolved. She also arrived with severe, long-standing ear infections that were so advanced she needed steroids just to open her ear canals enough for treatment. On top of that, she had significant dental disease requiring multiple extractions, and her coat reflected months if not years of poor nutrition and grooming. Today, she's feeling so much better, eating well, and her soft coat is making a wonderful comeback! Bindi also has some weakness in her back legs and walks with a slight hunch. She takes daily joint supplements, isn't in pain, and still enjoys getting around at her own pace. She also has a benign fatty lipoma on her back that doesn't require treatment.
