Hattie

Meet Hattie, a sweet yet spunky girl that will show you all the love that special need fosters can possibly offer. When we say they are special, Hattie is a testament to everything these animals have to offer. Hattie is 3 years old, weighs 35 lbs and has something called hydrocephalus, which has caused blindness, but that doesn’t slow her down at all! <br/><br/>Hattie was born with something called hydrocephalus – fluid on her brain. She currently only takes an ant-seizure med and has been doing well with that management in her foster home (Keppra 500mg twice per day, estimated cost $30/month). Ideally, we would love to find an adopter experienced with the condition because these dogs have very unique qualities that will make a transition easier if the adopter is experienced. <br/><br/>Hattie has lived in her foster home since she was three months old. She has a very strict routine (as hydros need) and does not like any sort of change to that routine. Her foster will want to visit with the adopter to ensure a similar routine can be carried into her next home. Hattie will need time to learn a new environment on her terms. She will never be a cuddly dog, and for the most part she doesn’t interact with other dogs a lot. She cannot be forced to a fast adjustment – it will only set her up for failure. While she loves being the company of other dogs, don’t expect her to play and behave like a typical dog. A lot of times she will relax off to the side and watch others play. <br/><br/>Hattie lives with foster siblings of all ages and sizes, as well as varying needs, and does great with everyone…in her own way. When new fosters enter the home, she is allowed to explore them on her own terms, and is never forced to interact with them. While she does great on potty training, due to her condition, she will always have accidents. Hydrocephalus dogs tend to not understand fully the concept of potty training, so an awareness to that will need to exist. <br/><br/>Due to her condition, only local applications will be considered (Oklahoma only) and potential adopters need to be open to having a home visits done. Multiple visits and observing Hattie in any new home environment is a must. She needs a home with a fenced yard; apartments will not be considered. <br/><br/>You can send inquiries to our director of adoptions at muttmisfitsadoptions@gmail.com or apply to meet / adopt at www.muttmisfits.org/adoption-application<br/><br/>Hattie is spayed, up to date on all age-appropriate vaccinations and preventatives, heart-worm negative, and micro-chipped! Her adoption fee is $250.
