Shiloh's Story

Meet Shiloh! This sweet, smart young pup was born blind, and he's proof that experiencing the world a little differently can be pretty wonderful. Shiloh is curious, quick to learn, and full of puppy joy. Give him a little time to map out a new space, and you'll watch his playful personality come bounding out.<br/><br/>Shiloh's perfect family is one that loves watching a pup bloom. A couple of weeks of patience while he learns new sounds and surroundings is all it takes, and the reward is a loyal, loving companion whose confidence grows brighter every day.<br/><br/>This clever boy is learning the same commands as any other puppy, including "leave it," plus some special cues of his own. "Easy," "careful," "here," and "door" help him move through his world like a pro. His favorite things? Chewing on a good bone and pouncing on crinkle toys. He can hear exactly where they land!<br/><br/>Shiloh is a careful listener, and he's still getting to know new or sudden sounds. Each day he explores a little farther outside as familiar sounds become old friends. Calm encouragement and plenty of praise help him feel safe and secure, and he always knows how to find his way back to his cozy spot.<br/><br/>For now, Shiloh would love to be the star of the show as an only dog, though a calm, gentle older dog could also be a great companion as he keeps building his independence.<br/><br/>At bedtime, Shiloh settles in beautifully in his kennel, which is his favorite safe retreat. A plastic or covered kennel suits him best, since the clatter of a metal one isn't his style.<br/><br/>Shiloh will be one year old in December 2026. He weighs approximately 31 lbs and has a long tail. He is neutered, microchipped, and fully vaccinated. He is taking flea and heartworm prevention. <br/><br/><br/>Thanks for considering a dog from Texas Cattle Dog Rescue!
