Thank you Muffin’s Halo And Second Chances for Blind Dogs”
“This handsome guy is Kravitz, our 11 year old rescue vizsla. Last year his owner of 10 years decided he no longer had time for him. After originally trying to give him away for free on Craigslist, Kravitz was then surrendered to the rescue that I work with and we began fostering him. Within hours of picking Krav up it was very noticeable that he had cataracts which significantly impact his vision. His original owner denies that he noticed any vision issues but it’s very obvious that his vision had been diminishing over the last few years before we met him.
After fostering Kravitz for 4 month my husband and I agreed that we had completely fallen in love and “foster failed.” He is the most loving boy in the world and is best friends with our 3 year old Vizsla, Haeden. Kravitz tries to use Haeden as a guide dog but we have seen an increased difficulty in his navigation of our home. Although he is adapting to the layout of our home, he walks into our walls often and has difficulty finding doorways. We have attempted to make apparatuses that will help him find walls before he walks into them but think that a quality made halo would significantly increase his mobility and confidence in our home.
We appreciate the opportunity to win a halo for Kravitz and think it would be a great help with his navigation in his new-to-him home. “Thank you
