Update
“Thanks to Second Chances for Blind Dogs for donating a Muffin Halo for Lucky. We received it yesterday and I wanted to share pics of him wearing it. We both love it! It totally helped Lucky from running into things.
I would like to express my gratitude and appreciation to you and your organization for the donation. It’s been hard financially trying to adjust to Lucky having SARDS and Osteoarthritis. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!”
You guys are awesome!
Sheila & Lucky
Back Story
Lucky is a 10-year-old #blindjindo. He is a rescue from a high kill shelter that I fostered and eventually adopted him. He was going to be euthanized and they literally pulled him out of the room just in time. I have been blessed to have him for these 10-11 years, and I look forward to more.
Recently, I found out that Lucky has SARDS in addition to osteoarthritis in his hips. This came so suddenly with no preparation. Within 2 weeks or less, he became blind. I am devastated, however, I committed to giving him the best quality of life for as long as he lives.
Before the blindness, he was active. Walking 2-4 miles a day. Now his activity level is low because he is dealing with blindness and osteoarthritis in the hips.
Unfortunately, I cannot afford the Muffin’s Halo with the vet bill and trying to come up with the money for physical therapy. I would love to have one for him so he could have more flexibility and protection as he tries to figure out his way without seeing. Thank you for listening to my story and I appreciate everything you all do.
