I have a 11 to 12 year old cockapoo that was the runt and it was
given to
my 15 year old son when he was about 3 or 4 years old.
The dog seems to run into object on its right side, but can see
with the other eye. I don't know if it has cateracks or not.
We flew the dog to the Philippines less than two years ago.
The veternarians here don't seem as advanced at the veteranians in
Omaha where we came from. Looking into the dogs eyes it seems
the dog eyes have developed a large white spot. I don't know
what this is. It seems the other eye may be getting the same way
and it has developed over just a few months. I've been told dogs get
cateracts and I know cateracks can lead to blindness.
Also am curious how long an average cockapoo lives. I have read
where they can live up to 18 years or so, but I don't know what the
average life span is. I read where some people keep a blind dog,
but when I was a child and the dog was totally bling it would run
into everything and my dad put it to sleep.
Then we had a neighbors dog that was continually chasing its tail and
my son tells me it was going bind and didn't live to much longer.
I appreciate any comments.
