While volunteering at her local animal rescue center, Jess Martin Fell crazy with an adorable Staffordshire named Amos that was born blind.

When she heard that he was having some trouble finding his forever family, she immediately opened her home to the timid pup. What originally began as a short lived family for Amos, became the house that might forever change his life.

Jess was at first worried about how Toby, her 9-year-old terrier, would react to his foster brother. Toby was Jess’s absolute best friend.

They need been on some incredible adventures together, and have formed a wonderful bond, so the thought of adding to their small family sounded a touch daunting. After a couple of days of uncertainty between Toby and Amos, their friendship bloomed.

Amos had never been during a home before Jess, as his whole life had been spent at a rescue center. Amos would encounter walls, become frightened by the sounds of the TV, and was even weary of the sensation of the carpet on his paws. Simple tasks, like finding the water bowl, were an immense challenge for the blind pup.

Toby wasn’t sure about Amos at first, but Jess quickly noticed something incredible. When she saw Amos struggling to seek out his water bowl, Toby would nudge him in the right direction. It started as an occasionally useful nudge, and later became Amos to get his own guidance. Jess and her family knew they had another beloved partner.

When Amos got older, he was seen by an ophthalmologist.specialist. It had been decided that his eyes presumably caused him daily pressure and pain, so it might be the kindest decision to get rid of the eyes. Soon after Amos underwent the surgery, Toby took on the role of his “unofficial seeing-eye dog .”

When Amos and Toby continued to walk together for the first time, Amos was disturbed.uneasy. TheThe noise around him will scare him, and he hopes that he needs frequent rest to lie down and organize himself. Toby would instantly lie next to him, and wait with him until he was able to carry on!

Hiking through the hills is now a favorite pastime for the furry best friends! Toby guides Amos through the hills with body bumps and nudges and helps guide him back to the trail if he ever strays.

“They have developed a pleasant communication between them, and that they know each other’s boundaries.”

Amos has mastered the art of hiking, but still features a lot to find out in the category of socialization and interacting with other dogs. Toby often plays the role of a middleman in these encounters, because Amos cannot speak like a traditional dog, so many dogs are delayed. Jess and Toby are working together to enhance his socialization skills every day!

Toby is the simplest guide and bodyguard that Amos could have ever asked for! Between each other, they need to find a friend forever.
