A local Dysart family has adopted a special needs dog, her name is Heavenly, she was born with a neurological condition.
This dog is blind, deaf, and takes medication to help her maintain her body weight. At about a year old she still must be bottle fed.
The family has taken Heavenly to be seen by two veterinarians and a specialty veterinarian who deals with dogs who have neurological issues. The veterinarian says that she is not suffering with any pain.
Due to her condition, she will from time to time move her head side to side in a swaying movement and due to her blindness, she may look like she is staring into space.
Heavenly does have less control over her bodily motor functions which cause her to appear as though she is in distress; this is a symptom of her neurological condition.
The family understands everyone’s concern for Heavenly and asks that you not approach Heavenly or attempt to have contact with her. As this can cause distress due to her conditions.
The family is monitoring Heavenly’s health and providing her with care and a loving environment.
