All a blind dog really wants is their jingle-ball to rock🥹🤗 so of course, miss Sandra gets what she wants! And the snow grooves which come as I shovel her court help her jingle-ball rock even more. So she approves- AND her soccer improves.

Ramble and Sandra reunited again and I had to share this adorable video. (And this is not the first time Ramble has tried to help Sandra find her jingle-ball.) 🦯❤️

Out of every other dog who has met Sandra, miss Ramble alone seemed to have recognised that Sandra can not see. (Since the first time they met last year, I watched Ramble observe her movements and eyes, and then even lick her eyes… and ever since then, she has been like a seeing eye dog for her blind furry friend during each visit they spend together.)

It is so heart warming to behold! Enjoy 📸👇🏻

I enjoyed making these backyard play barriers for miss Sandra🐾who you may remember is fully blind🦯 but she still lives a vibrant life; adoring chasing and playing with her jingle ball, and her plethora of sensory toys and pleasures like her foraging mat and plenteous treats, games of tug, calming hertz music, and all her loved ones (including me her sitter/caretaker; who feel warmed to be entrusted with her care for over 2 months each winter while her parents enjoy their deserved vacation.) 🥰

📲As you can see Sandra is enjoying her jingle ball in the safety of these soft snow walls I have been making and adding to each time it snows.

Grass or snow, you can find Abbey rolling around on it, living her best life.

(She is taking every chance to get dirty/ready for me to groom her across the next day… 🤫😆)
