Pair of dogs in Incline need special home

A special pair of dogs came to Pet Network Humane Society in Incline Village last month.

Honey and Buddy were confiscated from a severe home environment. Honey, a 14-year-old Dachshund blinded due to neglect, requires constant guidance. Luckily, she has Buddy, a 4-year-old German shepherd/Pyrenees mix, who has taken on the role as her service dog.

The dogs came from Lassen County Animal Shelter in Susanville. They have requested the two dogs be adopted together.

The two are inseparable, as Buddy guides Honey, shows her where food is located, and introduces her to strangers. He even pushes Honey’s bed toward her, and makes sure she is always within his view.

Although Honey recently had a mammary tumor removed and is blind, she is in good health. She is very sweet and wags her tail when you call her name. She listens well, and staff guide her by stomping their feet. Buddy is also very sweet, and loves to go on walks and play fetch. He is the most joyful when he is with his Honey.

If you can give Honey and Buddy a fresh start, call Pet Network at 775.832.4404 or visit them at 401 Village Blvd., Incline Village.
