Tod and Chaos were having fun today running Boat Ops from a lake in Indiana with Conifer Canine Dog College. This was the first time Chaos got to deploy from a boat into water for the bite. They were able to do a send away when they got to shore also. Tod is taking his Police K9 cert with Chaos the Mal for the next 6 weeks! ❤️🐾 Proud of my boys!!

Bugsy saw the eye specialist today.

He is completely blind and has 5 different genetic issues just in his eyes.
I’m sorry I don’t remember all the names of what is going on. I don’t have the report yet.
His pupils are very low in his eyes
The right pupil doesn’t move at all
He has cataracts
There is one small area on the left side that had a small response to light.
There is no fixing these problems.

The big question we are faced with is does Bugsy have a good quality of life.
3 different vets have said No.
I watch him circle all day in his pen, I see the fear of hearing other dogs, he cowers when you approach him, he freezes when you leash him.
We have not made any progress engaging with him. The spinning in circles has become his normal.

This post is to see if there is anyone out there that has a quiet home, no other pets that might want to try and work with him. This is the only other option we have.

The rescue is too over stimulating for him.

Please!! . Share the post, you never know who might see it.

Bugsy is still with us in hopes of a miracle.
