In particular, when it comes to medical emergencies, pet parents need to be ready for all kinds of unforeseen occurrences. While humans might be able to deal with some of life’s unexpected twists and turns, our animal friends might need more care and consideration.

They had to ask Sidewalk Specials for assistance in the case of a dog owner. An adorable dog named Chuckie was discovered by the rescue group while they were conducting an outreach program in De Doorns, South Africa.

When it became evident that they could no longer provide Chuckie with the required care owing to his poor eyesight, his former owner made the difficult decision to give him up. Four-year-old Chuckie was partially blind in his right eye and had lost vision in his left.

Thankfully, Chuckie was adopted by Sidewalk Specials, whose veterinarians certified his health. Chuckie can still live a joyful life despite being blind.

A new home where Chuckie could be properly cared for was sought after by the rescue team. According to Sidewalk Specials, Chuckie is a cute little puppy who likes to hang out with kids, other dogs, and cats. Because he can follow shadows or sounds, he is also capable of taking walks. I have hope that he will soon find his perfect home!
