Lola chi mini fox terrier just now dayblind at least ADVICE?
Lola is a service dog as well. Clearly blind but her health otherwise is great. she is 8yrs old active as eyes allow her.
First time pet owner btw. I have gotten: Doggles for UV sun etc, a Muffin Halo soon (bumper really). clear paths and all that, I use to let the water dish set out but now I give her a small bowl of water whenever she gets dog food. Went from "daytime" lightbulb to yellow lightbulbs. Her mood/temper are the same sweety pie as ever.
I tell ya at first I was in despair but then saw how with a little adjusting and equipment losing her sight is happily manageable. She is familiar with the back yard and can go in/out the ramp/doggy door with ease. It means to go walking leashed and inside big places and outside with a Halo.
She knows the command UP that kinda works for steps and stairs. THANKFULLY LolaJoy is around 9-12lbs and quiet easily packed around in the "shoulder carrier".
I think everything is gonna be ok. I could use some support I'm goin the right direction. "Nobody told me there'd be days like these....." John Lennon
