ABOUT THIS ANIMAL:

Auggie is a sweet small dog that while deaf, you'd almost never know it!

He loves to snuggle with the foster's 13 year old and is great hanging with the resident cats and dogs. He LOVES going on walks, and when he gets spurts of energy you'd think he's a puppy!

This sweet boy LOVES to snuggle, and does just fine when left with the other pups.

Let us know if Auggie sounds like your perfect pal!
