PLEASE HELP MY SHADOW SEE
Mr. Jones is a 7 year old Labby.
I “rescued” him from a flea market in 2017. It was love at first sight.
We attended puppy school together, and he went everywhere with me after that. He became my shadow….
He also adopted the role of being a guide dog. I am blind and he tried his best to be my eyes. Now, I have to guide him as best I can… It is not easy.
It is heart breaking to see my baby this way. He has been diagnosed with cataracts. It is progressing fast. I have done some research and it would cost me R46 000.00 to give him back his sight.
This gentle giant is the light of my life. He comes up with the most amusing little tricks. He is a show stopper. Everyone who he comes in contact with, falls in love with him instantly.
It breaks my heart to see him suffer this much.
We can’t go for our walks anymore because we are both blind. He can’t chase his ball anymore, he bumps into everything, yet he still shines like the super star he is!
There is no cure for my vision problem, but there is one for him. Please help us raise the funds to give this awesome soul his sight back?
