She can see and hear but not super well
- figured her way around my place very quickly.
My great uncle had to go into a nursing
home recently after he had fallen at home and could not get up. He is 92 and
refused to leave his home because of his 13 year old dog, Honey. I had lined up
a few prospective homes and drove to NY to keep her out of a pound but both
fell through once I got her here and now I am stuck. I live in an apartment and
already have 2 dogs who both came from rescues. We cannot have 3 here, nor can
I support 3 dogs.
Honey spent about 2 weeks at a kennel,
recovering from some skin issues due to the conditions of my uncles house. She
also has a fatty cyst on one side, but other than that, she had a physical at
the vet and bloodwork and is healthy. Honey is a 46 lb retriever mix.
Honey is very content relaxing on her
blanket and chewing her bone, but also comes over and puts her head under your
hand when she wants attention. I took her for a walk yesterday with my 2
smaller dogs and she was great on a leash - kept up with us too. She's
always right next to me when cooking in the kitchen - waiting for something to
drop on the floor. :) She has been great with my dogs, and was with
many different animals in the shelter with no issues.
