Adorable!! I had a blind dog once that was a stray someone dropped off at the construction site while my house was being built. I took the dog...a big mixed breed...to a no-kill shelter 3 hours away and they turned him down!! So I brought him all the way back home. He did have to be kept on a runner for his own safety, but he was on a 40 foot long runner with a 20 foot lead attached, so he had plenty of running room and as long as we never moved anything in his area, he got around just fine. Now when we would release him to run around every now and then, as soon as he got out of "his" area, he started running into everything!! He passed away a few years ago. MArsha
