Rhea

My story

Rhea is an 8-year-old sweetheart with a zest for life that shines through, despite being completely blind. She may not see the world around her, but that doesn’t stop her from enjoying it—she still loves going on walks, exploring new scents, playing with her people, and soaking up affection. Rhea has a few manageable medical conditions—thyroid disease and high blood pressure—but both are well controlled with daily medication. She takes her meds like a champ, and they don’t interfere with her joyful, loving nature. This gentle girl is truly one of the happiest souls in our rescue. She is fully housebroken, crate trained, spayed, up to date on vaccinations, heartworm/lyme negative, flea treated, wormed, and microchipped. She's as easy to care for as she is to love. Rhea would thrive in a calm, patient home with a secure, physically fenced-in yard where she can safely explore. She does best with another calm and friendly dog companion who can help guide her, and she seems to be selective with cats. Due to her special needs, we are not considering homes with small children. Rhea may be blind, but she doesn’t know she’s “different”—and you won’t either once you meet her. She’s just a happy, affectionate, and resilient dog looking for someone to see her for who she truly is: perfect.
