Dogs with disabilities
Just returned from a trip to Margaret River, only to come back home to hear news of one of my dogs (possibly) going blind. The vet explained that its possibly due to his old age (11years) and the breed (Lahasa Apso). Very distressing watching him bump into objects. Was told there is a possible chance he may regain vision, but from the looks of it he's going to go permanently blind. Every morning and night i have to put him on a leash and guide him to the lawn to do his rituals. Had a chat to the family and explained to them that we may have to possibly put him down. I honestly can't do it as i've had this boy since he was a pup. Just want to know of any owners who have dogs with disabilities and how it has changed their lifestyle.
