Journey's Story

Say hello to gorgeous Journey! Journey was found in a sealed plastic bag at 3 weeks old when police found her inside a stolen car. Miraculously, she escaped unscathed! Her story has been an inspiration to everyone who reads it, and we are grateful we get to help her on her way to happily ever after!<br/><br/>Journey is an 5 month old Aussie mix with a long road ahead of her. The trickiest part is: she can’t see it. Journey was born with microphthalmia- a condition where her eyes never fully developed in the womb leaving her without sight. Her eyes are much smaller than normal and while she may be able to see shadows, she’ll never develop her sight. <br/><br/>This sweet girl may not be able to see, but it doesn’t slow her down one bit! She’s navigating life one brave step at a time — and she's looking for someone who will walk beside her with patience, love, and understanding.<br/><br/>Potty trained, crate trained, and quick to learn, Journey is a smart and capable dog who's already mastered a lot. She does well with dogs, cats, and older respectful kids, and thrives in a calm, structured environment. She is a medium energy puppy, and has the potential to be a working dog or a house dog depending on her family’s goals.<br/><br/>Because she can’t see visual cues, she’s learning how to communicate clearly — and has been working with an experienced trainer to learn how to communicate. She needs someone who’s willing to continue her training with consistency and compassion.<br/><br/>Journey would do well in a home with another dog— one who can gently help guide her behavior without overwhelming or scaring her. Journey gains a lot of confidence from another dog as she figures out how to interact safely in a world she can’t see.<br/><br/>This girl has so much potential, and she’s already come so far. With the right person or family, she’ll blossom into the loyal, loving companion she was meant to be. Could you be the one to help Journey complete her journey of finding her forever?

Save Them All Animal Rescue's Adoption Policy
All adopters are required to complete an adoption application. In order for an adoption application to be approved, we require all pets in the home to be up to date on core vaccines (distemper and rabies) as well as flea, tick, and heartworm preventative. We do our best to match each animal with their perfect family. While some adopters may apply for a certain animal, they may not be the right fit for that animal's needs. We work closely with our adopters and want to act as a resource after adoption to make sure all transitions go smoothly.
