I have mentioned this before to ya'll, but the situation has worsened....my wife's dog is going blind at only 9 years of age....it's has gotten to the point where it's pretty much like caring for a newborn baby.
Pretty sure it's related to either diabetes, brain tumor, or catarracts....regardless of the cause, my wife says any surgical procedures are out of the question....just enjoy her companionship, while she's here.
However, her quality of life has been reduced to only sleeping in a corner because of her fear of movement....so, there's really not much companionship or joy, watching her just sleep her life away....she doesn't even enjoy, being walked outside on a leash, any longer....whenever she does get up, and try to navigate throughout the house, she bumps into the doors, walls, and furniture....it's heart-breaking.
It's really a pitiful situation because she's totally healthy, other than her blindness....we've briefly discussed putting her down, and I'm going to let my wife make the final decision.
My question to ya'll is, at what point do you consider putting her down???
Sunny, since you've got your show dogs, I'd especially appreciate your opinion???
