Stevie-Foster Home Needed's Story
Please note donations using the BECOME A SPONSOR tab will NOT go to Fluffy Dog Rescue.<br/><br/>Our portal, Petfinder, has a section on the right side that says, "Start Your Inquiry." Please do not submit an inquiry as our website is very complete. Go to our website fluffydog.net<br/><br/>To Locate Our Application go to fluffydog.net and you will find it in the Adoption Guide.<br/><br/>MY AGE: 10 weeks (8/25) WEIGHT: 4 lbs. (8/25)<br/><br/>MY STORY: Meet Stevie <br/><br/>Stevie is a sweet poodle mix puppy who came into rescue after a breeder was unable to sell him because he is deaf and has serious vision impairment. Stevie is blind in at least one eye, and he may only be able to see shadows from the other.<br/><br/>Stevie’s disabilities are believed to be connected to double-merle breeding, a genetic issue that can occur when two merle-patterned dogs are bred together. The merle coloring is beautiful and very popular, but when a puppy inherits two copies of the merle gene, it can come with devastating consequences, including deafness and vision problems. Unfortunately, Stevie is one of those puppies.<br/><br/>But Stevie doesn't see himself as broken. He’s just a puppy. <br/><br/>He deserves the same things every puppy deserves: a loving family, a safe place to call home, and people who are willing to understand the world from his perspective.<br/><br/>Since Stevie cannot hear, his family will need to communicate with him in other ways, such as hand signals, gentle touch, and visual cues. His limited vision also means he'll need a home where things are kept fairly predictable and where he can safely learn his surroundings. With patience and consistency, dogs like Stevie can adapt beautifully.<br/><br/>Adopting Stevie will come with some extra responsibilities, but it can also be incredibly rewarding. His family will have the chance to teach him that the world is a safe and loving place—and to watch his confidence grow as he learns to navigate it.<br/><br/>Stevie didn't get the easiest start in life, but that doesn't have to define his future. He isn't looking for someone to feel sorry for him. He's looking for someone who will love him exactly as he is.<br/><br/>If you're willing to give this special boy the patience, guidance, and unconditional love he deserves, Stevie would love to meet you. <br/><br/>Spay/neuter can be done at our cost at our vet. You can have this done at your vet at your cost.<br/><br/>**While we generally only adopt to WI, IL and MN, we are willing to make an exception to get Stevie in the right home. Adopters would be responsible for bringing Stevie to them from Wisconsin**<br/><br/><br/>ADOPTION FEE: $450<br/><br/>To adopt the FIRST STEP is to complete an APPLICATION at fluffydog.net<br/><br/>Adopters must be 24 years of age.
