Unbelievable

I have just finished watching the local TV show "Animal rescue". In the middle of the show they like to do a follow up of a previously rescued dog.

Today it showed a lady and her rescued dog doing an agility course. The dog really enjoyed doing the obstacles, including Weave poles, A frame, Tunnels etc. This in itself is a remarkable thing considering the dog was cruelly tortured and narrowly avoided death. One would think that after such a disgusting history of mistreatment it would never trust a human again.

Now for what is truly unbelievable. At the end of the agility course she called the dog back to her, and then casually announced the dog is 100% totally blind. I don't know who to admire the most, the lady with what must be the patience of a saint or the dog.

Wow. That's all I can say is wow. That is truly amazing, and that dog must really trust the woman to lead it around, especially through an agility course.

How wonderful for her and the dog. Truly amazing how they can use thier other senses to get around. Delsi sure could use lessons from that dog. She wont even walk around.

How wonderful! It's nice to hear of an animal, that has a condition like that, go on to lead such an active, happy life. Too cool. You're right.. I don't know who to admire more, the woman or the dog. Odviously together, they make a heck of a package.

I think they both should be admired for their patience, courage and obvious bond they have together. What an awesome end to such a terrible life and the start of a wonderful forever home and love!
