An animal rescue group is hoping you might be able to help two of its newest foster pups: a blind pug named Augie and his seeing-eye Chihuahua, Pepe. https://t.co/77SUcPQt71

"It was kind of like a package deal. When Augie came, (Pepe) came with him," Cyndi Trimber, a volunteer with the rescue, told KDVR. "They've been taken from the only home they knew, and they're thrown into another home. They really had to depend on each other to get through it."
Augie has likely been blind for a long time. When he was brought to the rescue, he needed surgery to remove his eyes and 14 teeth. The rescue group is also asking for help to pay the $3,100 veterinary bill.
Trimber is watching the two dogs for the time being.
"They sleep together, they eat together," Trimber told KDVR. "It's really sweet they depend on each other like that."
