A member of the BT rescue posted this website several weeks ago on the list. I looked at it and slowly realized what an absolutely beautiful thing it was!!! I quickly measured Tink and ordered one for her.
This vest will act like a cane for her. The halo will hit the wall or chair leg or whatever else instead of her little nose. It should increase her overall independence both inside and out as well as her confidence once she becomes accustomed to the halo and how it works for her.
Currently there is a 4 week wait. We ordered it 2 weeks ago, hopefully she'll have it before the end of October. Shari is the kind woman who makes these vests. She is very nice to work with and responds fairly quickly via email. These vests are so affordable too! If you or someone you know has a dog with a visual impairment, I strongly recommend at least considering an angelvest!
I'm quite excited about this for Tink. She does get around the house very well as a whole, but if she becomes turned around or is slightly confused, her poor noggin takes such a beating. This theoretically will help to elimate her head trauma on a daily basis.
We'll post and update about the vest when she receives it!
