Ep. 22 Interview with Eve from the Underdogs Training - all about blind dogs and their senses

If your dog is born blind, or goes blind during their time with you, don't panic.

Eve from the award winning The Underdogs Training is here to help.

After her own dog turned blind, she decided to set up as a niche trainer to help all owners of blind dogs navigate the (small) adjustments needed so that you can still have a fully enriching time together, and help your dog learn their new normal.

The key advice is that you are not alone.

You don't need to fret over google rabbit holes, as she has lots of tips for owners with dogs that have impaired vision.

From our chat, it is not the end. And actually the adjustments you need to make are less dramatic than you may have realised.

Yes, you will be on more alert out on walks, and your agility career may have to stop, but there is a huge range of other activities that your blind dog can excel in.

Dealing with a blind dog may not have been on your agenda, but your dog is still the same loving dog, and Eve now has 2 blind dogs that have lots of fun and learn new skills and tricks every day.
