“Chewy's” rescue story, continued.
The folks at Acacia Animal Hospital gave the name Chewy to the dog I brought in. After talking with them and FAIR a couple of times, I visited him this afternoon with my significant other. While we waited to see him, we encountered a nice woman who volunteers her time to animal rescue efforts. It turns out that she was at Acacia the day that Lisa and I brought Chewy in. Even niftier, she works with the Shelter Pet Project and expressed interest in helping him find a permanent home. What a great chance meeting!
Since we brought Chewy in, his ruined eye was removed and he has turned out to be blind in the remaining eye, but his other senses are doing fine in compensating for his lack of sight. He's clean and cuddly, calm and friendly—he just needs a couple of days to get used to new people. We chatted with a technician for a while we petted him and took some photos and video footage throughout our visit. The following is a rough draft of a video telling Chewy's story and some of it will later end up in a more polished package that I'll upload to YouTube and submit to cable access channels. Thank you FAIR for helping Chewy!
Stand by for more updates.
