Contact Lenses For Animals
Yeah, that's fine, I guess, but what animals really want are these...
SW, I had a Golden that went blind from glaucoma but didn't seem to care since her Setter bud acted as her seeing eye dog, with no prompting from the humans in the household. Funny bit: the Setter was not above stealing food from the Golden's food bowl.
Pack, that dog has very tiny feet or an unusually gigantic head. Cool shades, though.
We had a little French bulldog many years ago who went blind. As long as we didn't move the furniture around, he was fine, but he developed epilepsy and eventually had to be put down. He was the sweetest-natured dog I ever had, and I still miss him, thirty-five years later.
*sigh* One-eyed Odie has gone blind from a cataract; however, he's ancient, a medium-sized dog at 17. I don't think he could survive the anesthesia.

TW: ansighte: what Poly did for Pepper
Retread: I'm pretty sure that's just the camera angle. Funny about your dog having its own seeing-eye dog; that's pretty neat!
ReplyDeleteNice shades. Do they come prescription bifocal?

ReplyDeleteOdie uses ME as his seeing eye dog.
