BINDI is HOME!!
Mike Hoschett came to meet Blinkers but Bindi chose him. Bindi is a rescue from Oman. Mike was looking for the right dog to join his family… one who would be a companion and playmate to his 3 dogs and be a loving family member to him and his partner Bill. A dog who would enjoy lots of fun adventures and the great outdoors.
Mike took Bindi home initially as a foster to adopt. After a couple days he reported that she fit in perfectly and is super smart. She has already adjusted into the mix as if his home has always been hers. Street dogs are smart. They know a good thing when they experience it.
Thank you to Omani Paws for rescuing this sweet girl and especially to Mike and Bill for opening their hearts and homes to this sweet girl.
You too can save a life.

BINDI’S Rescue Story
Have you ever wanted to see the most important thing in the universe? I can help you! My name is Bindi, and I’m a four months-old pup from Oman. In many cultures, a “bindi” is a red dot worn on the center of the forehead. It signifies a “third eye” that can see the most important thing in the universe. (Here’s a hint: I’m it!) You won’t believe it, but my rescuer believes that someone dumped me in a neighborhood when I was just three weeks-old. I was so scared. I hid under a car for two days until a local child told my rescuer where to find me. I screamed when she picked me up! I could tell she was a nice lady, but I still was terribly nervous. I needed several days to feel comfortable… and I have been playing ever since! I love to play! They tell me I have good house manners as well. I am respectful of my foster family’s things, and I am mostly potty-trained. While I travel to Chicago, I wish you safe travels across the universe to see me soon!
man is an Arab country in the southeastern coast of the Arabian Peninsula. It has wonderful national treasures, vivid landscapes… and thousands of “wadi” – or street – dogs. These wadi dogs can be seen virtually everywhere. Unfortunately, they face the same plight as dogs in many Muslim countries where they are generally viewed as unclean and not fit to be pets. Dog ownership is rare, and when they are owned, dogs are usually not allowed in the house. Pets are viewed more commonly as guard dogs who roam the outside vicinity of the property. The government doesn’t have humane animal welfare laws, and, worse yet, police have open rights to shoot “any and all” street dogs. There is no requirement that the dogs have to be a nuisance or sick; rather, they will be killed just for having the unfortunate luck of being born on the streets in Oman. It is a common practice. Many wadi dogs suffer a slow, painful death caused by festering gunshot wounds. If a gunshot does not kill them, street dogs die of disease, starvation, abuse by people, vehicles, and extreme weather conditions. In the summer, the temperature can easily soar to 120 degrees Fahrenheit. Most Omani street dogs do not survive beyond the age of three.
