She told me the exact procedures they were going through with Ginger and the dangers of not maintaining them. I just wanted to do my research beforehand to make sure I knew what I was getting myself into. Based on the eye drops and other maintenance I am not going to be adopting her because both the rescue and I fetl that it would not be in Ginger's best interest. It would make more sense for her to go to a home that can take care of her during the daytime as well. This would be ideal for someone that is able to stay at home more. I will be adopting a different dog from them very soon. Thank you for the concern, Ginger will be going to the best home possible to treat her condition. Ginger's well being is what matters at the end of the day.
You are absolutely correct. Not that you could not have given her a wonderful home, I think you did a wonderful thing by researching this yourself to see just how demanding this condition can be. I applaud you for that and not chancing her health.

I am sorry Ginger didn't work out for you. It can take several weeks to months before they know for sure if medication can work. You will make some pup an amazing home.

Good luck on your search.
