Last night on Dogs 101 there was a case of a female mastiff that had retinopathy. The owner eventually got another male mastiff to serve as a "companion" and the new dog took instantly to the one with the blindness. He looks out for her, he nudges her back when she gets too far in the yard, he waits at the door to make sure she gets inside safely, etc. It was really very sweet. Would you consider getting another dog in hopes that this would be the case for you too? |
