Sawyer is one lucky boy! With his eyesight deteriorating, I contacted Doggles a company out of California and they were awesome and donated a pair of Doggles to not only Sawyer, but also Stella!!! Stella is another deaf and vision-impaired Great Dane in foster care with MAGDRL. When they came in the mail and I put them on him for the first time, he wouldn't open his eyes and he kept trying to back up. After giving him lots of treats and thumbs up signals, he opened his eyes and just shook his head. Sawyer attended the Fossil Festival and he did a great job keeping them on! Everyone wanted to come pet the dog with the glasses on. You would think he was some rare animal....(unless you read Craigslist where the "Rare White Great Dane" is offered for sale). At one point, 4 different people stopped at the same time to take his picture from across the ditch where our booth was! Haha, was pretty funny! Overall, I think they really helped him; when we got home, he was not squinting at all and his eyes didn't seem to bother him as they usually do after being out all day! So YAY!!!! HUGE thanks to Doggles!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
