Paris is such a good boy. You and he are doing well dealing with the blindness. I had told you in another thread that my previous yorkie also went blind from either PRA or as we later suspected SARDS. I think it was originally misdiagnosed since she exhibited many of the SARDS symptoms that are not seen with PRA. SARDs has symptoms similar to Cushings. So we had those issues to deal with also.
Jessie dealt pretty well with the blindness-much better than us. Did you ever get the book, Living with Blind Dogs? We found that helpful. Basically, she was ok if we didn't move things around. Techniques described in the book such as using sound, smell and texture in creative ways helped us. I always felt that Jessie's quality of life was still very good with the blindness. You are a good mommy and Paris will do fine. |
