Hi, I'm Inara ! 

Guess what? I'm finally learning to be the big goofy puppy I was always meant to be! My journey has been more dramatic than a season finale of Grey's Anatomy. Born with Entropion in both eyes, I was in serious pain until the amazing Dr. Julie gave me relief.  I had my eyes tacked for now, and the pain is gone!  When I get older, closer to a year, I’ll have the final surgery to fix them, so I’m good for the rest of my life.  My adoption contract will cover this and the cost will be paid by these nice Village folks.

Before my eye treatment, it was dark and twisty, walking around with my eyes closed because opening them hurt so much.  I was a quiet shut down puppy as I didn’t feel like playing with all the pain I had. I relied on my doggy friends and my nose to navigate life. But now? I can see! It's like I've a whole new world for me overnight! 

I LOVE following other dogs, playing with toys, and prancing around on my hilariously oversized paws.  To continue building my confidence, I'll need another canine brother or sister.  I’m not ready to be an only dog in the home yet, as the worlds still a little scary for me, but I’m getting there.

House training is a work in progress, but I keep my kennel clean and I’m doing really well.  I only have the odd accident if I get playing and forget I need to go outside.  I will also use pee pads inside if needed.  My crate used to terrify me, but now we're cool.  I don’t love it yet, but I understand my foster family will come back and that it’s a safe place for me while they are gone.  Car rides make me nervous but with time I'll improve, I don’t get car sick, so that’s a bonus!

Oh, and heads up - I'm definitely a cuddler who loves the couch, I believe your furniture is our furniture.  I love to sleep in bed a night sometimes with my humans and foster fur siblings….not all the time, as my foster momma says I need to learn to love my crate, but she lets me snuggle the odd night here and there.  I’m a good girl and sleep through, unless I need to wake her up for a piddle outside, which happens from time to time.

So, what do you say—pick me, choose me, love me?  Can I join your family?
