afternoon sun 36/52

Week 36 in 52 Weeks for Dogs. The news wasn't good for Tasku when we visited the vet last Tuesday. We have a probable diagnosis of SARDS (Sudden Acquired Retinal Degeneration Syndrome). We still have get confirmation with a visit to a specialist, which unfortunately isn't until the 16th, but it does seem likely that it will be the correct diagnosis. Sadly, as far as I'm aware, there is no treatment and the condition is irreversible.

I am feeling very sad for Tasku, as now her world is dark and silent. Since her sight went, we have realised just how deaf she is. She doesn't even hear a high pitched dog whistle.
