Breeder Seeks Euthanasia for Blind Puppy at Clinic, Vets Decline to Comply

Date:

Bing Bong was a tiny puppy who found his way to the veterinarian’s office at just three weeks old, after a breeder considered euthanizing him.

The breeder claimed that upon his birth, his mother had attacked him, resulting in head trauma and an open wound, sensing that something was amiss with him.

After running a few tests, the veterinarian discovered that Bing Bong was completely blind.

Recognizing that he needed a caring home to thrive, one of the vets reached out to a rescuer who they knew would provide Bing Bong with the love and care he urgently required.

Given his small size, Bing Bong required regular bottle-feeding and constant care.

Bing Bong’s resilience and spirit showed the rescuer that he was determined to overcome his challenges, and with love and commitment, he would soon grow strong and healthy.

Puppies And Blindness

Hearing such heartwarming stories truly fills me with joy. I am extremely grateful to the veterinarians who chose not to euthanize this precious puppy, giving him a chance at life and finding him the most wonderful family.

Nonetheless, it’s important to recognize that blindness is quite common among newborn puppies.

Congenital blindness, or blindness present from birth, can affect animals just as it can humans.

Dogs can be born entirely blind due to genetic factors or developmental complications during pregnancy.

Specific breeds are more prone to this condition, generally due to inherited traits or genetic alterations. Breeds like Collies, Shetland Sheepdogs, Australian Shepherds, Siberian Huskies, Dachshunds, Miniature Schnauzers, and Cavalier King Charles Spaniels may be more susceptible.

In some instances, external factors such as infections or toxins during pregnancy could also result in congenital blindness for puppies.

Regardless of the cause, it’s crucial to understand that blind puppies are just like any others. They are equally adorable, affectionate, and playful, deserving the same treatment as their sighted companions.

While they may require a bit more time and care, their ability to adapt and flourish should never be underestimated!
