North Branch, MI: Welsh Springer Spaniel Puppy Needs a Home


I have a litter of 5 Welsh Springer Spaniel puppies who are 4.5 wks old. One of them is deaf. He is all white, except for a red spot over his right eye and he has light blue eyes. He is too young for the Baer test, but we know from his behavior that he is deaf.

We are calling him Billy (we name the puppies just to keep a record of them while they are with us; their new owners can call them whatever they would like). He is a male. We are in North Branch, MI.


That's me, Billy! Hi!
We have started to use the 'thumbs up' sign with Billy whenever he gives us eye contact and when he uses the litter tray. We are trying to get him off to a good start, as we do with all our puppies. He will have an eye test by a vet Ophthalmologist at 7 wks old, and a vet exam and first vaccines at 8 wks. A forever compassionate home is my goal for him.
 
If anyone is interested please contact me at this email address or call my cell at 810-287-4446I will send updated photos as he grows. The other 4 puppies have homes waiting for them.
 
Kind Regards,

Cathy

Vicksburg, MS: Deaf Pit Bull Needs a Placement

UPDATE: A crossposter got the location wrong so it's in Lapeer, MI.



I'm writing about a very special dog who needs a loving family. Recently a good friend's daughter's friend was killed by a drunk driver and left behind a one year old pit bull named Casper. No one from this girl's family was willing to take Casper in so my friend brought him home until a suitable place could be found. Added to the difficulty of placing this breed is the fact that Casper is an albino and is deaf. There are a whole new set of considerations because of his disability. I know many people would never consider a pit bull for a pet and I understand their concerns. Casper is a very sweet and loving boy who thinks he's a lap dog. He's had all his shots and is neutered.

Casper responds to certain hand signals and wants very much to please. He really needs a safe place and someone to continue working with him in a loving way. If anyone is interested or has any idea about a safe place for Casper to live I'd very much appreciate hearing from you.
