I’m Wilma! I’m a sweet 8 year-old girl who wants nothing more than to be your teddy bear! I’m completely blind – I no longer have eyes – so my favorite way to show my love is to cuddle with you and be held.

Because I can’t see, I would do best in a home with gated or closed off stairs so I can’t accidentally tumble down them. If I wander off and get lost in the house I’ll call to you with little yips so you can come and carry me back to where you are. I’m a real velcro pug, but it’s tough for me to follow, especially when I’m learning the layout of the house. But I’ll keep trying, and I’ll call to you if I can’t quite figure out where you are.

As you can imagine, I don’t do so well on a leash, so I need a home with a fully fenced in back yard to keep me safe and to allow me to get enough exercise. I know to go potty outside, and I don’t have accidents if I’m taken out on a regular schedule a few times per day. I don’t really like to be in a kennel, especially if I know people are home, but I tolerate it when my foster parents go to work. At night I love to sleep in my fosters’ bed, cuddle in close, and lay my head next to theirs on the pillow.

I get along great with the other pugs in my foster home, and I wag my tail whenever they come over to say hi. Like most blind dogs, I get nervous when anyone gets in my face, so I would do best in a home with only calm, adult dogs.

I take medication twice per day for my thyroid. I don’t care for peanut butter (crazy, I know!), but if you put the pill in my regular food, I don’t even notice it’s there.
