I think our golden retriever needs glasses

[TEB]

Standing in the kitchen I tossed boog and his brother dog biscuits. And the golden misses and boog scores. So I toss mr golden another biscuit nope boog scores again.

I’ve noticed over maybe last year mr golden started missing quite a bit. So I gave him two biscuits I told him we cannot rely on boog to do the seeing eye dog for you golden boy.

5. Have him checked for cataracts. Actually, you can see them yourself if you know

what to look for.

9. Cataracts appear as areas of cloudiness or opacity on the eye. You can spot them. If he

has cataracts, they can be removed, but it costs a lot. Depending on his age (and he's a senior, isn't he?), you might not want to subject him to the surgery. A good vet will give you appropriate advice on that.

Even if you don't see evidence of cataracts, he should be checked anyway.

10. He had checkup in August

Vet said his eyes looked ok

7. Maybe the golden is trying to make The Boog feel better by letting him catch the biscuits.

8. That would never happen

They’re worse than young children in jealousy
