Horton is an 8yr old Scottish Terrier Mix that was discarded his entire life by his owner and when he became sick, they threw him out like trash. He was found with a leash tied up in the downtown TJ area. 
I have no words.

Please excuse the graphic pictures, but I think you should see what this poor boy has endured. 

Horton was found on the streets in horrific condition!!! 
We rushed him to the vet and as soon as he was healthy enough for surgery one of his eyes was removed and the other eye treated. 

He also might need the other eye removed because not only is he completely blind, but a cataract has also formed, and pressure has built up

Help me so I can help Horton 
Horton needs a calm foster home with no other dogs. 
Even though this sweet senior has endured 8 years of neglect he is still loving and thrives on attention. 
Horton is now fully vaccinated, dewormed, neutered and had a dental cleaning. 

If you live in San Diego County or surrounding areas have a home with a secured yard and would love to foster or maybe even foster to adopt Horton, then please complete our foster application at www.tlck9rescue.org
