When Abi’s mom gets asked questions such as “where are her eyes?” and “how does she see?” the answers are obvious. Abi doesn’t have eyes and she can’t see. Her mom wasn’t planning on adopting a special needs dog and had, in fact, never even been around one; nevertheless, Abi stole her heart. There’s no complex backstory to why Abi’s mom adopted her – she was simply drawn to the adorable, smiling dog with no eyes.
When Abi first came home, she was a bit shy, taking some time to warm up and show her personality. After a few weeks, the adorable pup realized she was with her forever family and in a safe place and decided to come out of her shell.
Now, Abi is an assertive and confident dog. One of her favorite activities is to accompany her mom to the cafe, where the employees treat her to a “Puppaccino” or a treat.
When Abi’s mom received text messages from her brother about another blind dog in Michigan named Duke, she initially said “no.” After all, she wasn’t sure how she’d get Duke across the country, to her home on the West coast. Lo and behold, Abi’s family made the four-day drive to pick up Duke.
To make Duke more comfortable, the veterinarian removed his eyes. From there on out, his quality of life increased noticeably. Although Duke is much calmer than Abi, the two blind dogs have an inseparable bond. Adventurous Abi encourages Duke to try new things – recently, he went swimming at the beach, and discovered that he absolutely loves the water!
Abi and Duke prove that anything is possible with a special friend by your side and that together, they can accomplish anything. While blind dogs may take longer to learn certain activities, they’re just as capable and loving as dogs with sight!

Cute! Thanks for sharing! I am glad the dog is having an interesting life!
Thank you for being willing to give these two blind dogs the chance to life a “normal” life TOGETHER! It’s obvious one needed the other!
This is a heartwarming story. I’m so happy for Abi & Duke. I’m glad they found such a good forever home. I’m glad they are loved and encouraged to be free. I’m also thankful to the lady who adopted both of these special needs dogs. It takes a special kind of person to adopt and take care of a special needs dog let alone 2. I hope they all live a happy, healthy life together.

Thank you for such a positive story about blind dogs. With their totally amazing sense of smell and their intelligence dogs can adapt very well when they are blind, particularly with the love and support from their guardians (and from each other). My Lab X was recently diagnosed with PRA and will eventually go blind. I will love her just the same and make sure she remains happy and healthy.

That’s great news to hear.thank to the person that has the dog know
They are adorable, and their mom is beautiful as well!!
God bless you. You were meant to a mom to these two very special dogs. ????
This is such an amazing story. People think that special needs dogs are hard work but, they can have a good life with the understanding and patience. My dog became blind when he was 9 and it was some time before he got used to it. His other senses kicked in and I was able to direct him with my voice, clapping so he heard the sound. When I fed him, I would tap on his dish. Sadly, he passed away when he was 12 and I miss him so so much.
Im truly sorry for your loss but they are never truly gone..they will always be a part of your heart…
This is a beautiful story. Thank you God for people who protect and love animals. God bless all of you. Abi and Duke are with their forever family and life is beautiful.
I love this story!!! What wonderful hearts you have to care for these doggies! God bless you always.
