She is fine, just her normal self.

I actually have quite a lot of experience of a blind dog because my mothers dog has been blind for a few years now. She amazes me with how well she managed.

They are so precious so I know how you feel BJ. A huge part of the family.

She is how she is I guess. As long as she is well then that will do for me. Anything else we can live with.
Hasn't affected her bark though  ::)

my little lad is really well at the moment.  we have just been to see an elderly lady we visit, she loves him and she commented on how well he looks.  He's also moving well since he's been having laser therapy for his back.  It might last longterm or it could be temporary but we just enjoy him on a daily basis (but not last night when he had me up from midnight to 2am  >:()

Full moon making the kitchen bathed in light and this morning evidence of a fox in the garden which would have disturbed him and then husband went down to use, and flush, the toilet.  Dog must have wondered what all the activity was about  ::)

Or worse  :o

Ours sleeps in the bedroom with us. She gets fed up some nights waiting for us to go to bed and makes a big performance of getting into her bed. If we don't pay any attention she comes to the living room door and barks and then she runs into the bedroom and barks again. When we look she has turned her bed upside down and waits for one of us to get her sorted.

High maintenance .....yep  ::)

on the odd occasion we have had ours in the bedroom with us when we've been away he was up and down, in and out fidgeting all night because he is used to sleeping on his own.

when he is disturbed in the night I lie on the sofa with him under a duvet until he relaxes and settles.  If he is very worked up I give him just one drop of valerian to calm him.  then I carry him back to his bed before stumbling back to mine.  Husband is usually still on his back with his mouth open blissfully unaware.......  ::)
