Default blind dog

I have had dogs all my life. have 2 monsters now. But my all time best dog was Jack. He was a spanial, golden retriever mix that I simply loved and he, me.

He went blind when he was 7. I was very lucky in those first few months with him. He knew the house, the yard etc. I never stopped walking him off lead. he would just stay with me like he always had.

We had a problem when we moved. for the first few months, til he learned his way around. He would follow my cairn terrier around till he learned things for himself. Any new change, I would walk with him till he got the change. But mostly he just learned the change as it was being done.

being blind never restricted him in any way. It took some time for him to adjust but then he was just like any other dog. run to the door barking etc.
He lived to be 14.

open some food and see how fast they find the kitchen. LOL

I would take on another blind dog. they adjust and life goes on for them.
