Help Me See Again!

Hello! My name is Ralph, the cocker spaniel.

I'm a vivacious 6 year old female, who loves to run, has a shiny black coat and big brown eyes. Well, they were brown. Unfortunately I have rapidly lost my sight over the last few months.


My eyes are milky and I can no longer see. I recently moved to a farm. No, not that farm your parents told you about when your beloved pet suddenly wasn't there one day. I literally moved to a farm after my first owner found themselves in the position where they could no longer care for me.

My new owners brought me to the Northern Territory, Australia and I thrived. This farm is giant with plenty of spaces to explore, animals to chase, and billabongs to swim in. I would go for long walks with my friend, Vixee, and my owners.  Here I am enjoying a canoe and swim pre blindness.




But one day, while exploring, I got stuck!
It soon became evident that I was going blind.





I'm too young to go blind! Now that I am blind, the farm is rather dangerous for me. See the sinkhole below.







I still love my walks and I get so excited by the idea of walks around the farm, but it isn't the same when you can't see the scenery and you're stuck on a leash! Even getting around the house is awkward. I have to try to follow the sound of my owner's voice!




All is not lost though! My sight can be restored, but the surgery is expensive, and my new owners would give their hearts, souls and the shirts off their backs to give me back my sight.

They can't do the surgery in my nearest capital city. I need to fly all the way across the country and will need to be in care for a few weeks in that city, in case anything goes wrong. This means my owners have to take time off of work to keep me company and hold my paw. I'm scared, guys, but I'd do anything to be able to see again.

All I am asking is a bit of help for my generous owners who really can't afford to help me, but still want me to enjoy the farm for the many years I still have left on this planet.

Thank you to all who donate, for giving me the most precious gift - My sight!

Love,

Miss Ralph.
