Cataracts

[Harold Pickens]

Phil, I dont put much stock in vitamins or eyedrops helping out. I guess if you are noticing him running into things that often, the cataracts might be more significant than I thought.
Hell to get old aint it. Hopefully, Scout will learn to moderate himself and continue hunting, he sounds like a great dog.

Both Tufts and Cornell do eye surgery on dogs. My dad's GWP was only 10 when my dad took him to Cornell for cataract surgery. I don't think he ever said what the cost was, but knowing my dad, that was immaterial. My GWP was only two when he developed a lesion on his spine, and he, too, went to Cornell. He came home 3 days later a new dog. That was in 1974, and the bill was just north of $2000. Unfortunately, Phil, both schools are on the opposite side of the country for you.
