UPDATE: 

Orion (Ori) as his foster moms call him, is an adorable 11 year old male doxie. He is getting healthy however he is recovering with a bout of pneumonia. He is progressing everyday. Ori is a bit bigger than a tweenie, with red, light brown and dark brown markings. His retinas are detached but we believe he can distinguish light. Therefore, Orion is blind but his sense of smell and hearing lets him function like a member of his foster pack. He loves a lot of positive reinforcement, is a great dog. He is getting used to his foster siblings. He seems to be a happy guy and does come when you call his name. Ori is using the doggie door now. Ori loves to lay on a pillow in the kitchen or watch TV with his foster moms.

Orion would make a great addition to a family with older adults
