Cody
Lovable, special needs pug
“Say, do you have a minute? I’m Cody, and life is so much better since I found a loving rescue to care for me. I’m about 12 years young and I am what they call a “special needs” dog. Maybe that means I am especially lovable! Long ago I lost my sight, hearing and most of my teeth through neglect. Now that I’ve had good medical care, I feel much better. I am used to being blind and learn my way around my environment very quickly.
My Pacific Pug Rescue foster family was surprised when I found my way up the ramp to the dog door right away. I also will find you in the house and like to be close by you. I am not young or lively or have great ambitions in life, but I am a good boy and a great snuggler. I go potty outside on a schedule and I sleep well at night in my own bed. I would be best as an only dog, just because I can’t handle a lot of energy and I startle easily due to being deaf. I may be able to live with one gentle dog. I like to sit close by my person most of all. At this point in my life, I sure would like someone to be around home a lot for me. I like really long naps and little walks to sniff around in a fenced yard. I will need to be carried up any stairs, but can use a ramp or a couple of easy steps to the yard. So, thanks for listening, and if you happen to know of a Very Special Someone who would like to be my forever person, will you let us know?”
Cody is with Pacific Pug Rescue in Portland, Oregon.
