Found wandering the streets of Sydney Australia, with his coat so badly matted he couldn't walk straight and several broken teeth indicating a kick to the head, this little dog got taken to the pound where they had to shave his coat off. Then they discovered five hair pins had been cruelly pushed into his back! It was five days later before they finally realised he was also totally blind.
Poor little Stevie Wonder, ill-treated, neglected and blind.
Life had been pretty rough for this six year old Maltese terrier cross who, despite everything, showed love and trust towards the pound staff.
One day he started barking hysterically and, when they went to see what was up, he led them to a sick little puppy that had crawled into his enclosure!
Then somehow, through the magic of the internet, we found each other and after a three day road trip, little Stevie arrived at his forever home here in Adelaide. Fiercely independent, loyal, cheeky, playful and as smart as a whip, he stole my heart forever and now rules my home.
Stevie, my true Wonder Dog!
