Update on Robbie

Unfortunately Robbie's cataract operation did not go as well as we hoped. The ophthalmologist was unable to insert the intraocular lens successfully after removal of the cataract from his eye.We waited two weeks but very little vision has returned. He can see things moving at a distance of say -  5 m -  but he is just as likely to walk straight into a stationary object right in front of him.
We are in the process of deciding whether to operate on the other eye. The vet seems quite confident but it's a big decision financially.  Personally I would like to see it happen as he is a lovely young dog and deserves a chance of finding a forever home preferably with a family.
He has recovered well from the operation and expects to play ball frequently during the day!!!   Hmmmm!!!

Cheers
