Hi Bobbers,
We did, yes.
The rescue org and foster mum had told us in the accompanying blurb that she had “a cloudy eye” and may require drops to help it clear up…
Hmm.
Upon collection of Parker we were greeted by a very similar sight to this…

I’m not sure how that can be categorised as a “cloudy eye that will heal with drops” but it is what it is…
We had booked an appt with a local ophthalmologist but on contacting the rescue org they have said to use their contracted vet provider which will be partly subsidised.
Doing a bit of Googling (I know, I know) the prognosis if it is what we think it is is actually pretty good. It is likely that the eye may be removed in its entirety as the growth is inside the eyeball itself…
Parker shouldn’t notice any vision difference as it is likely that eye has always been blind and to be fair to her, both eyes don’t seem that coordinated and she always has one eye on us and the other one up the chimney
Our old neighbour has a Lhaso Apso called Stewie, he only has one eye, makes no difference to him at all!! Parker has absolutely found the right hoomans to take care of her!!! We did, yes.

That said, I'm shocked that a "Rescue Organisation" handed her over in that state needing pretty much immediate veterinary attention. I'd be having a very serious "word" with them.

Lovely to hear that Parker has found herself a forever home and I hope she has a very happy and long life with you.

I’d agree, that is slightly worrying that they aren’t at least prepping you for the issues a dog has. Tends to suggest they didn’t know themselves which is concerning.That said, I'm shocked that a "Rescue Organisation" handed her over in that state needing pretty much immediate veterinary attention.

Well done for fully committing though, and for rehoming, I am sure Parker is already had the best days of her life with you
