One-Eyed Deaf Pit Bull Who Spent Half Of Her Life In A Shelter Finally Finds Home

ADVERTISEMENT

This one-eyed deaf pit bull named Scarlett had spent over three years at a shelter, which is more than half her life. During those years, she managed to win over the hearts of both the rescue organization’s staff members and those who come to visit. Still, no one would want to take the poor thing home…

Scarlett was brought to the shelter back in 2013 because her previous owners couldn’t afford her medical treatment. Today Scarlett is one healthy pooch, albeit not very active, which makes the other doggos at the shelter appear more attractive. “People look at her, and she’s the one-eyed dog who is not jumping up to greet them, though many of the other dogs are,” shelter manager Kirstyn Northrop Cobb told The Dodo.

The woman’s heart was breaking to see Scarlett at a shelter for so long. “She is the most cuddly dog ever! She will just melt into you… and give you kisses.” Cobb adds: “When you enter her living space, she smiles at you and it is super cute!.”

Well, now the doggie has even more reasons to smile, as according to the latest news, she has just been adopted!

I would take her right away... even with one eye look all the emotions she portraits. You can easily tell she is full of love.

It sickens me that any person would ever even consider precious Scarlett and any lovely animal furchild alike to be "less desirable." It it truly appalling and only "humans" have such capabilities! Scarlett is not only absolutely GORGEOUS in EVERY way but she (and those alike) are my preference (and yes I love all of them just as equally and immensely). May she be living the life she has always deserved to have! She is just so special..precious..perfect..and a true beauty queen in every essence. I love you Scarlett with all my soul!!!

Dogs and cats alike wouldn't last that many days in a shelter here, they euthanize them after 60 days.

Hurrah - the best news. I am so pleased for Scarlett. I'd have had her in a heartbeat if I could. Already have a one-eyed deaf dog (and she's blind in the eye she still has). Our other dog is a nervy rescue but he's so affectionate. Dogs with problems are so worth the effort. Enjoy this beautiful girl you wonderful people.
