He's 15. he's blind but he can see shadows...I have noticed. he just sleeps and eats and stuff. I know he's bored. What can I do to make the boredom go away? I tried fetch hoping he'd play but he can't see it

I don't know but can you give him some big smooches from me? Maybe a soft toy he can drag around. Or something to stimulate the senses he has, hearing, smell, feel.... They have those balls where you hide a treat inside. He wouldn't need eyes for that.IP: Logged |

When someone has food......he'll follow them around LOL.He does interact with other animals though. Puppies he gets annoyed at because they jump all over his face. He growls and disciplines them LOL He is such a strong pup. I remember when he use to run and play.
There was a time when I bought him to a park and there were like 20 dogs there. One of them loved him and was trying to play with him. It accidentally banged into him kind of hard. Poor thing didn't know my dog was blind.

I will try that.....thanks thirteen! I'd give him those big bones but his gums are very sensitive now that he's older and it will hurt him.
