Meet Sookie! 🐾
Age: 8 months | Breed: Poodle | Special Needs: Vision Impaired
Sookie is a sweet, playful 8-month-old poodle who is looking for her forever home! She may not be able to see much, but she certainly knows how to enjoy life and has a heart full of joy. ❤️
Sookie suffered trauma to her eye shortly after birth, likely from her siblings, and as a result, both of her eyes don’t provide her much vision—she mostly sees shadows. But don’t worry! She’s learned to navigate the world around her just fine and is super playful and friendly. She’s been to an eye doctor, and while no surgery is needed, she will need drops in one of her eyes for life as she has a dry eye. She will also benefit from an eye supplement to slow the process of losing her eyesight completely. Despite these sad challenges she’s perfectly happy with her little world.
Despite her vision challenges, Sookie is potty-trained (though she might have the occasional mistake, so regular potty breaks 2-3 times a day keep her on track).
Her Personality:
• Shy but Sweet: Sookie is a bit shy at first but once she warms up, she’s a total lovebug. She’s great with people, kids, and other dogs.
• Active and Playful: Sookie LOVES her toys and would be happiest in a home where she can have plenty to play with!
• Foodie: Her favorite snacks are carrots, strawberries, and blueberries. She’s definitely got a sweet tooth!
• Sunbather Extraordinaire: She loves to bask in the sun, so a sunny spot in her new home would make her a very happy girl.
Sookie’s Needs & Preferences:
• Not a Walker: She’s not too fond of walks and would much prefer being carried around or even getting a stroller for outdoor adventures.
• Sensitive Soul: She gets easily startled by loud noises (like thunder or cars), so a calm and understanding household would be ideal for her.
Feel free to DM for more info or to meet Sookie! She’s ready to find her forever home where she can play, relax, and get all the love she deserves. 🌸
