SEE THE CAPTION FOR HIS INCREDIBLE JOURNEY⬇️

"Hi. My name is Ernie. My family has a lot of names for me - Big Ern, Ernie the Bernie, and Ernest. Apparently, I was born with a detached retina in one eye...honestly...I have no idea what that means...All I remember is that I could only ever see out of my right eye.

After a year, I had developed glaucoma and the doctor said I had to get my eye removed. Which is good because all that eye was doing for me was causing me headaches and swelling! I didn't really like that. My mom and dad were so worried to send me into surgery not knowing how I felt, but I did my best to be brave for them. When it was all over my mom and dad were there to pick me up. I was so excited to see them I came bounding out of the doctors office toward them...they knew that they helped me and I was fine!

Turns out life is pretty much the same with one eye. Getting the zoomies in our local park in northern Seattle is the best. Going to dog parks with my friends is still my favorite. Peanut butter kongs are still spectacular. And being lazy on the couch with my parents is better than ever. Happy International Blind Dog Day!" 🦮 ❤️ 💛

At The Dog Stop®️, we believe that every dog should be welcomed regardless of breed, age, size and even if they have special needs such as blindness like Ernie. We’re dedicated to accommodating their unique requirements to ensure they have an fun and safe experience!!

💦 Hydration: Always have fresh, cool water available, especially outdoors or after play.
🐕‍🦺 Limit Exercise: Walk and play in the cooler parts of the day. Protect paws from hot pavement.
🕶️ Shade and Airflow: Create shade with umbrellas or trees. Ensure good ventilation indoors.
🐾 Protect Paws: Avoid hot surfaces, use paw balm, and consider booties.
🚗 Avoid Hot Cars: Never leave your dog in a parked car.
🆒 Cooling Accessories: Use cooling mats, vests, or wet towels. Provide access to shallow water.

🥵 Watch for Overheating: Look for panting, drooling, rapid heartbeat, or lethargy.
