This Blind and Deaf Aussie Helped Raise 2 COVID Kittens and a Deafblind Puppy
Little Buddy is a very special dog for a multitude of reasons. For starters, this Australian shepherd was born blind and deaf and helped pave the way for his mom to also adopt Aster, another blind and deaf Aussie who needed a loving home. He’s also, according to his mom, the perfect blend of couch potato and adventure seeker.
