I have 2 blind yorkies now. Eye problems were inherited from their same parents, litters 2 yrs apart. I didn't know back then the breeder did not get the parents tested for eye problems. Anyways, Now 15 yrs later I have a little girl with PRA, progressive retina atrophy. by the time I found it, the vet said there was nothing she could do, so Lacey, 3 yrs ago, has found her way around ok and adapted. Just recently her little sister Lindsey became blind in the only eye she has left, with a cataract. Her other eye had to be removed due to glaucoma. Lindsey is having a hard time adapting, just keep yourself positive, as they will react to your every emotion. They do learn to adapt, some harder than others, but love them at first when they need it. Start them in a small safe area. I've bought so much of the foam pipe insulation, the clerk knows me by my first name to wrap on furniture legs.
Recently lindsey was in the ER for a nose problem, she keeps sneezing, vomited, and hard breathing. She was xrayed, heart was ok, and lungs were clear, was on oxygen for 12 hrs. they couldn't figure out what it was, other than maybe a polyp and wanted to further the care with a scope up her nose. I decided to wait and see if anything came out or if it could be allergies. Blind dogs are wonderful, go to their site,

She'll be ok with a lot of love, she'll build confidence within herself and adapt. Wishing you the best and hope to see you in Blind Dog group where you can ask any questions. We all have been there and working thru and will help you. Dogbless your little one <3
