Special needs puppy looking for special family

Junior is a 4-month old golden puppy who came to NGRR from a shelter where we had been in foster care for almost 3 months. He's now 4 months old and is doing great, all things considered. He's an adventurous puppy who likes to explore and play with his foster dog siblings. And he likes the evening snuggles with his foster mom. Junior may have a congenital brain issue and will be seeing a neurologist in a couple of weeks for further assessment. The eye doctor says that Junior is completely blind, and he has some issues with his gait and grinds his teeth when frustrated. He continues to amaze his foster mom - after just 72 hours, he learned how to get himself off the pool cover when she calls his name. He runs around the backyard and hops like a bunny sometimes, to the delight of all who see him. Junior would love a family with a doggie sibling so they can show him the ropes, as well as someone who is home most of the time. Teenage or older kids only, since he does occasionally bite and could hurt little kiddos unintentionally. We're working on potty training. Junior is being fostered in Walnut Creek and would love to meet you!
