Less than 48 hours as a blind Tripawd, and LOOK how well she can find her way:

Isn't this great?

More pics and another video on her blog at http://www.trip.....ogspot.com

OMG, how wonderful is that.  You are doing an AWESOME job, Sue.  I knew the two of you could make it work.

Totally great! Thanks for sharing the videos.

That Nova is obviously one happy dog ... and a lucky dog too!

Sue,

This is WONDERFUL. What a great mom you are. And what a great dog Nova is. What a great team you make.

I'm so proud of all of you. Nova looks so happy. She is such an inspiration.

Thank you so much for sharing.  Keep up the great work.

Sue,

  I would never even suspect she was blind unless you told me...

Way to go Nova!

Kim,

Nova totally amazed me.  When I took the video I thought that she would probably bump into something, as she occasionally does, but she blew me away when she did it with no problems.  She is so used to bopping down the hallways so fast on 3 legs, so it's different to see her all slow and tentative. But I am glad she is starting to find her way.

What a great dog!  Nova is definetly a super trooper in my book.  Superstar

You would never know she was blind without you telling us.  Awesome dog and an awesome Mom too!
