About Gwen

Follow her on Instagram @Gwenchi_fani Gwen has been blind since birth. No out of state adoptions. She will need to remain fairly local. Gwen is just about the sweetest Chihuahua you will ever meet. She was born completely blind, but nothing stops her. She lives a completely normal life and there is nothing she can't do. Her video speaks volumes as to the normal life she lives. She was rescued from the Downey Shelter because, of course, she was being overlooked by everyone. We scooped her up and put her into foster care. She is 3 1/2 years old and 8 pounds. We have learned so much about her, like... It will take her about a week to memorize your house. It's not her first rodeo! Once she memorizes where the door is, she will go outside and do her business. Gwen gets along with all dogs big and small, she will play with anyone. In her video, she loves her tennis ball. We slit a small hole in the tennis ball and put a jingle bell inside. She can find that ball anywhere. Gwen loves walks, car rides, sitting in your lap or following you around the house. She can hear you walk and talk and she just follows along. Really, this dog is quite remarkable. She will snuggle with you or with other dogs. She bonds quickly. We would love to show you Gwen so you can see for yourself that there is nothing complicated about owning a blind dog.
