Valle Colino Launches Urgent Appeal for Deaf Dog Blanqui
The Valle Colino shelter has launched an urgent appeal to find an active home for Blanqui, a lively 10-month-old dog who is potentially deaf and requires a PPP administrative license.
The Valle Colino shelter has launched an urgent appeal to find a home for Blanqui, a sweet dog who is almost 10 months old. She's a medium-sized dog, weighing about 19.2 kilos, and has been waiting a long time for someone to adopt her.
Blanqui was found on the street and brought to the shelter by a kind individual. While her past is a mystery, the shelter team knows exactly what she's like now: a very lively and energetic dog who is incredibly affectionate. She loves being around people and constantly seeks attention.
According to Valle Colino, Blanqui loves to play all the time and gets along wonderfully with people. She's very sociable and has no trouble living with other dogs at the shelter. Her behaviour with cats, however, is unknown.
Because of her playful nature, Blanqui would be a perfect fit for families with children or other dogs. However, potential adopters must understand that she is a young, active dog who needs daily exercise, playtime, and mental challenges. For this reason, the shelter feels she wouldn't be suitable for very sedentary people or those of advanced age.
Her caregivers believe Blanqui might be deaf, as she doesn't react to sounds, whether it's a voice or loud noises. This doesn't stop her from living a full life, but it does mean her adopters would need to be patient and willing to work with her using visual signals, clear routines, and special training methods.
The shelter emphasizes that her deafness is just another part of who she is, not a hindrance. It simply requires a committed and understanding family.
Blanqui is classified as a PPP (Potentially Dangerous Dog), which means her adoption requires a specific administrative license. Don't worry, the process for this is straightforward.
When adopted, Blanqui will be spayed, microchipped, and have all her vaccinations up to date. The shelter does not accept reservations, and adoptions must be done in person.
Valle Colino reminds everyone that simply sharing Blanqui's story can save her life. Spreading the word greatly increases her chances of finding the right person and finally leaving the shelter for a loving, permanent home.
The shelter also warns that comments like "I want to adopt her" will be removed if the person doesn't actually come to the shelter. Such comments often create false hope and can actually make it harder to find Blanqui a real home.
