Heartbreak and Hope: Meet Rubble

Rubble's story is one of love, loss, and resilience. This senior dog has known only one home and family for his entire life, spending his days in the familiarity of their yard. But life took a cruel turn when, at just 2 years old, Rubble lost sight in one eye. And last year, he lost sight in his other eye, leaving him in a world of darkness.

With his world turned upside down, Rubble's family made the heartbreaking decision to surrender him to the shelter. Struggling to adapt to his blindness and coping with the loss of his home, Rubble found himself at risk for euthanasia due to his age and disability.

But then, a ray of hope shone through the clouds of despair. A kind foster home opened their doors and offered Rubble a second chance at life.

Yet, despite this glimmer of hope, Rubble remains heartbroken and disoriented. The loss of his home and family weighs heavily on his soul, leaving him longing for the love and security he once knew. His blindness only adds to his confusion and vulnerability.

Rubble needs a special someone—a compassionate soul who is home all day to ease his separation anxiety and provide the comfort and companionship he craves. A home with no other animals would be ideal, allowing Rubble to navigate his new world without the added stress of other pets.

If you have the heart and home Rubble so desperately needs, please consider opening your doors to him. Let's show this resilient senior dog that love knows no bounds and that brighter days lie ahead. ❤️
