My dog who I thought had Cushing's, instead has SARDS - similar symptoms

8. Sorry to hear this, but

you will find that dogs usually adapt well to this. My older dog is nearly blind and deaf. Dogs rely on their senses differently than us. To begin with, their eyesight is not nearly as good as ours. Most are color blind. They don't have to read, or rely on their eyes for as many tasks as we do. The worst thing for a dog would be to lose their sense of smell. They rely heavily on that. My dog still has enough sight to allow me to give her hand signals when close to her to compensate for the deafness. She seems perfectly content with her situation.
