Tips For The Dog Owner Who Is Loosing Their Eyesight (Part 1)
from:Losing one's sight either permanently or temporarily or even having it decreased due to cataracts or other causes can cause you to rethink how to manage everyday care of your dog.
A dog, especially if he is a guide dog for the blind, will be your constant companion, but providing care for him may take some extra effort. Following are some tips for people with vision problems from people who have vision problems themselves. Some of the tips will help you if you've completely lost your vision, but others require that you have a minimum amount of vision and can discern shapes or contrasts.
• To help know where your dog is, put bells on his collar so that you can hear him when he walks around your home. If you have more than one dog, use different-sounding bells.
• To help you locate your dog, put his rabies tag and metal license next to each other on his collar so they jingle when he walks.
• Those of you that have vision problems know that your other senses learn to pick up the slack under such circumstances, so telling your dogs apart if you have more than one may be as simple as touching them and feeling their coats or sizes. If your dogs are the same size or their hair has a similar or identical feel, the process may be more difficult. To help differentiate the two dogs, put different types of collars on them. Use different combinations, such as a collar with a metal buckle and one with a plastic buckle or one collar made from elastic and the other one made from plastic to help you tell them apart.
• If you have a neighbor, relative, or friend who takes you grocery shopping or does it for you, peel the label from the food your dog likes and give it to the shopper so that he or she buys the correct variety or brand.
• Feeding your dogs a variety of flavors helps maintain their interest in their food. Put a rubber band around the cans of one flavor and not the other to be able to tell by feeling the presence of rubber bands which one you are feeding him. If you need more than two options, put two or three rubber bands on the different flavors.
• To measure quantities of food for your dog, keep the appropriate-sized measuring cup in the bag of food so you always will feed the correct amount.
• Place a tray with half-inch sides, such as a cookie sheet or pizza tray, along a wall where you are less likely to accidentally step on it. When you feed your dog, place his food and water on the tray. Anything that spills from his bowl will fall onto the tray. To clean it, simply lift the entire tray and dump the fallen bits into the garbage disposal or trash can.
