 To beautiful Ella, From Ashish Aggarwal 

Welcome Faith (aka Ella) to RAGOM! She is a beautiful cream colored, 9 week old, 14-pound puppy - ½ GR, ¼ yellow lab and ¼ Australian Sheppard. Faith is blind in both eyes. She has been with us for a week and is a very well adjusted girl. It is amazing how keen her other senses are. She hears everything, and knows the name Faith – so that is what we call her. She comes to you when you call her, and knows her way around the whole level we keep her on, as well as one side of the yard.

It took her less than a day to “map out” the area and feel comfortable. We keep everything in the same place (except puppy toys that get scattered around). She is doing great on potty training, mostly outside – but if not she goes at the door on the towel/papers when I don’t get to her in time J.

She has been to the vet and received all her puppy shots. We also brought her to an eye specialist who confirmed her vision issues. He gave us great easy suggestions on how to teach her and keep her safe.
She plays well with her siblings, our resident 2 yr old, and all of the children she has met 7-15 years old. She does have those sharp baby teeth!! She is a joy to be with – lots of puppy kisses and cuddles. She plays hard, takes lots of cap naps, is crate trained and sleeps thru the night!

Faith will need a special family who understands her special needs, a calm, safe home that doesn’t have clutter or need to be rearranged. She can have another “calmer” dog, as she shouldn’t rough house too much and the other dog can show her the ropes. No young children.

If you would like to meet this adorable gal, please contact your RAGOM placement advisor. We have lots of great info to share about blind puppies!
