advice on almost blind bully...
Submitted by kibby5 on September 17, 2013 - 1:54pmHi... Since Kibby passed.. I have been looking at getting another bully! I keep looking at other dogs, but keep coming back to the bullys of course...
I have found a rescue that is mostly or will be blind soon.. the foster mom tells me that it will just take a couple of weeks of adjustment and then that I wont really even notice anymore.
Does anyone have any experience with blind bullys?

That they do asjust fairly well. Maybe Celine will read this and respond, her Stella was blind...

My friend has a blind bulldog...
she's adjusted well, she can go up & down stairs, she knows where her food & water bowls are, her bed, etc. She knows 'easy' means she's close to a wall or bumping into something.
She's a barker, the minute she smells food she barks her head off! But she's a real sweetheart. It takes time & patience but she's so worth it - little Klohe Bear is her name. She had a bacterial infection in her eye that was misdiagnosed from a vet down south - so at one time she did have sight.
