Bugsby

Bugsby our blind older Bichon Mix boy may have an attitude ( he will growl and bite) about being touched when he dont want to be touched, but knowing his past may help you understand why. This 10 ish year old boy came to us in the trunk of a car with severe painful ulcers in his eyes. He was blind already and he had to get several surgeries to treat the ulcers. Then a couple of years of eye drops, Glaucoma surgery etc. Bugsby has chronic ear infections due to a chicken already also so must eat salmon food. He recently developed dry eye in 1 of his eyes, and he already was showing us daily how u happy he is about having his eyes messed with so the specialist had to remove the eye. Bugsby does have moments where he is a sweet boy however he is a cranky older boy who prefers to do things on his terms and we make sure he gets his proper food, eye meds while respecting his boundaries.
