Jake was initially taken in by the shelter’s director, Tera. After rehabilitation for several months, he was saved and rescued by a local woman named Heidi. For Heidi, Jake was a total revelation. She had been hesitant to rescue a blind dog but eventually came to the realization that Jake is just like her other dogs, mischievous and full of life. This really made our hearts happy.
