“I’m a 4-year-old neutered male. I am thankful a sweet soul found me for I have been able to receive the medical care I needed. You see, I have a disease the humans call Progres- sive Retinal Atrophy. I’ve probably had it since birth, but the hard part about this disease is it gets worse with time, so while I am not fully blind right now, I will be blind in the future. However, this disease is not painful. I am an affec- tionate, friendly guy — I just soak up the attention! Though, I must admit, I do have moments of frustration. Patience and perhaps keeping the furniture arranged the same way is key. So, if you have room in your heart and home, call us.”

The stage was simple, designed to resemble a wooden board that resembled the siding of any barn, anywhere across America.
