Picture of the Week
Here's some recent photos of Wilson, a cute little Rat Terrier, who just happened to be blind (though he didn't seem to know it), and who was adopted into his forever home back on 08/10/2020.

In the left photo, Wilson is enjoying some quality time with his adoptive mother, Deborah. The photo above shows Wilson hanging out with some of his "friends". Hint; Wilson is the dog in the middle of the picture. 06/19/2022
