My yorkie babies are not, but their elder 13 yr old pek sister is blind. Pek's eyes don't tear well, so she had problems right off the bat. At 13, she is blind, has bad allergies, heart murmer, beginning to leak a little, and very stiff back legs. They do adjust well, but this year has been difficult for her. She can no longer go out the doggie door or gage where she is. There is a one-inch step off my back porch to the pool deck. She can no longer find it and just jumps in the air and misses/falls. We have always had a pool and she has fallen in twice so far (thank goodness I was close by). I rearrange my flowers in the back yard and she tripped over the edging and fell in the dirt (had just washed her). She has gotten lost under tables (doesn't know how to find her way out). When she shakes, she falls over. Poor thing. My advice is to try everything the same. Try not to rearrange much and keep an eye on her. Good luck! |
