Bindi

Looks like: Papillon mix<br/>Female, 10 months old (estimated), 6 pounds<br/><br/>Bindi is a young, medically challenging puppy who was picked up as a stray in Salinas. This poor girl was found hobbling around experiencing some obvious neurological issues. Poor thing! We can't even imagine her out in the big world by herself.<br/><br/>Bindi is searching for a family with people who can be home with her most of the day, as she does topple over and has a challenging time getting back up. She will also need baths more regularly than your average pup, as she sometimes topples into her potty piles. She seems to love being around other, gentle dogs and she even gets the zoomies! She would do best in a home with minimal obstructions as she can get stuck in odd places when she's exploring. While we think her vision is impaired, she is still able to navigate her surroundings once she learns them.<br/><br/>Bindi has come a long way in the past few months with her loving foster. We are excited to share that Bindi was assessed by a neurologist and received an MRI. Bindi will likely be a special needs dog her whole life, stemming from malnourishment early in her development. They don't, however, think this is causing her any pain! We are hopeful her balance and general wellbeing will continue to improve with a balanced diet and comfortable lifestyle. She may also benefit from physical therpay for balance.<br/><br/>If you are interested, please watch the video at the end of her profile here for a closer look at her symptoms. Please note that she is always kept in a safe and monitored environment here, and she is able to get herself back up and keep her head safe when falling.<br/><br/>While Bindi has already been through so much in her short life, she still has much to learn. Puppy socialization is critical to lifelong behavior and skills for any dog, so we want to ensure Bindi's next home is up for meeting her medical needs as well as her socialization and exposure needs as a growing puppy.<br/><br/>Bindi joined us from Hitchcock Road Animal Services after she was found as a stray. While Bindi isn't our usual senior dog, she was out of options due to her medical need. With no other rescues able to take her in, we decided Bindi was destined to become a POMDR pup!
