Sara 'Chessie' Raphael is a pure bred, Chesapeake Bay Retriever that is visually impaired. 
The vets estimate that she is 8-10 years old at the most. She is so calm, sweet, and loving. She will come and rest her head on your knees and just wait until you start petting her. Because of age and visual impairment, a senior blood panel was done. Everything came back completely normal. It is hard to tell exactly how much she can see or not. There are times that she bumps into a chair right in front of her. Then there are times when she will look at me and if I lift my arm, she tracks whatever movement I make. So while she is definitely not blind, it is difficult to say what the limits of her sight are. She is one of the most loving animals I have ever been privileged to know. Good with everyone and everything.
While not a spring chicken, as the saying goes, anyone who shared that time with her would be lucky in deed. Sara is micro-chipped, up to date on all vaccinations, house-broken and spayed. Sara's adoption fee is $200. A meeting will not be scheduled until you have an approved application, so if you're interested in adopting Sara fill out an online application today! http://arf-il.org/application.html Once your application has been approved, an ARF volunteer will contact you to arrange a meeting. If you’re invited to meet an animal, plan to arrive on time or early, as we cannot hold animals. All household members need to be present at time of adoption, including dogs.

I hope somebody gives her a home real soon. Just doesn't seem fair:( Sharing.
ReplyDeleteHope she finds a good home. $200 for a visually impaired senior is too much money. If they want to get her into a home, they need to cut the fee or find a sponsor.
