Well we went from regaining the site in her one eye and almost getting her other eye back to a total regression now shes totally blind again.It breaks my heart to see her like this .She was doing so good now it's back to the vet on mon.Please send some good luck vibes for my sweet little pup.I'm praying she at least gets one eye back.BTW it was an infection that caused all this.and the antibiotics seem to be working but now it seems like there not. Dave

Keep us up on the progress. Hopefully you'll turn a corner and she will be running around again. It's amazing how attached one can get to this wonderful part of life.

| Ask yourself one question: Is she suffering? If you can't determine, ask your vet: Is she suffering? Your heart will tell you what you need to do. Your wife and kids may disagree, but you need to do what's right and serve as a moral beacon for them. Hardest decisions in life, these.

We just put our golden retreiver to sleep a few months ago. She was 12 and more a part of my life than any dog I have ever had. One day she just couldn't walk. She wagged her tail and was very alert, just not mobile. My husband carried her up and down the stairs and I fed her. Someone at work talked to me about "quality" of life. Yeah she was alive and we could pet her but that was for us. From that point on I saw the whole thing differently. Talk to the vet and if he feels she won't recover then think hard about the poor pups life. Someone once told me it is the most unselfish,wonderful thing you can do for your animal yet the hardest on you. My prayers are with you

It is up to YOU to educate yourself and then help your doctor plan your treatment. If you just sit down in front of your doctor and say "make me better" you are setting yourself up for a great deal of pain.

| Not good Cash shes now completely blind and still loosing weight. The Vet took some blood he wants to see if it's something systemic they still say it could be any one of a number of things.Originally they thought infection but they gave her a heavy regiment of antibiotics that didn't do much if anything at all.I wish I could report better news Cash.My little ones don't know the full extent of it just my older ones do.I'm not sure how they will take it when I have to tell them that Jade will not be living with us anymore.Well heres me rambling on thanks for your concern Cash and all who posted I do appreciate it. Dave

OK, I'm still seeing a glimmer of hope. The vet hasn't totally given up but it sounds like everyone is being realistic. Last spring one of my 4th grade students had to put her pup to sleep. I don't know the details but she had lost her sight too. She was handling it well. Her mom had told her how much the puppy was suffering and how they just couldn't put her through a lifetime of that. Good luck with the kids. Time will heal their pain. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
