Hi There,
I was wondering if anybody here knows anything about sudden blindness or SARD in dogs? My 2.5 yr old JRT has been having problems this weekend - walking into things, seeming confused when trying to go somewhere, scared to jump on/off things - and the vet today thinks it is SARD, which apparently can cause permanent loss of vision pretty much overnight. We have an appointment with an ophthalmologist this week, but I was wondering if anybody had any experience with this?
If it's true, then he'll be permanently blind... how do we help him adjust?
Thanks in advance!
