Seeing Eye Dog That Couldn’t See
Graham’s seeing eye dog came into his life from British Academy of Guide Dogs.
Edward was a seeing eye dog that opened a new world for owner Graham who had injured his eyes in separate accidents. He had lost his right eye completely in a car crash then, years later the left eye was hurt in another accident and weakened by glaucoma.
Many years later Edward the seeing eye dog, was stricken with glaucoma and went blind himself. A dog who had loaned his eyes to another for much of his life had lost his site completely due to the same disease that impaired his master.
This English Retriever was already popular but after losing his sight, there came an outpouring of support. People clamored to meet him. Edward loved the attention and would lay on one shoulder, bottom sticking up and bark to his fans.
Stardom hasn’t ruined this blind dog and to Graham his master he’s a constant companion. That love between animal and master is especially powerful. Graham says, “it’s more than man relying on dog, it’s the other way around.”
Connection between human and dog is an intimate and intuitive bond.
