My Kady lost an eye to cancer of the retina when she was about 10 yrs old. Two years later the other one had to be removed due to glucoma and she adapted well to being able to get around but she would whin and bark if she got lost in the house. The whining got alot worse when she developed doggie alzheimers but she had other symptoms too. I just adopted alittle blind maltese puppy and she does great but sometimes she gets behind the couch and can't seem to find her way out and she will whin or bark. Blind dogs want to feel secure. This puppy likes to be in a crate with her blankets that she can snuggle in when she gets tired. They suggest putting a bell around your ankle so they can hear you when you walk and if have other dogs to put a bell on their collar. You can go under blinddogrescue.com and there is some info about blind dogs. |
