Minnie Meets Dr. Norman

Today I made yet another trek into Avondale to go to Eye Care for Animals. Except this time, it was for Minnie.

I pack Minnie and Pickles into the car and headed out towards Avondale. I made the long trip for her new mom to check a few things out. Everyone was so happy to meet Minnie, and to see Pickles again. They couldn't believe they were littermates because Minnie was so small!
A 3rd Year Resident student performed all of the tests while Dr. Norman observed (all the while doting on Pickles).
They confirmed that Minnie has Retinal Dystrophy just like Pickles does. She is completely night blind right now, and will progressively lose more of her sight until she's a year old.
Minnie will be in my puppy class in a couple days and we are going to treat her like any other puppy!

If you would like to help Valley Dogs with Pickles and Minnie's vet bills, please donate!
