Where to start with this underfed and under-loved tiny gent...

Nathan is 11 pounds of fawn stray from the Rio Grande Valley. He came to us way too thin, unaltered, and already blind with badly damaged eyes. Nathan is now a double winky and gained much comfort as his eyes are surgically removed. He also will need his neuter and dental, as several teeth are already mobile and his breath not so fresh. In just 6 years on earth, this poor guy endured horrors we can only imagine; pain and hunger among them. Remarkably though, he is heart worm negative, making him adoptable roughly August, provided his surgeries and recoveries go as planned.

Do not be offput by Nathan's blindness, or any of our blind candidates. They are as happy and full of humor and love as any sighted dog. They do take cues from other dogs, so benefit from having at least one sidekick. But for now, Ffllow Nathan's transformation on Facebook and Instagram as we get to know him better. I expect GREATNESS. Nate the Great.
