Poor Juneau has been dealt one blow after another thanks to heartless guardians. First, she was born the result of an unethical double merle breeding that left her deaf and with some congenital eye anomalies. (Luckily she can see anyway!) Then, she was either abandoned or dumped on a country highway where she couldn't even hear the oncoming traffic. Now she is safe in rescue foster care, ready to devote herself to her lucky adopter. But first she has to find someone who sees the wonderful dog behind the physical “flaws”.

Veterinary Ophthalmologist report

We got some good news on Friday from the vet ophthalmologist: "Juneau can see from both eyes"! He says that her "peripheral vision may be limited" due to some congenital anomalies, and her eyes are consisted with Merle Australian Shepherd Syndrome, so she will need periodic eye exams to make sure everything is ok, but she does not need any treatment right now and he said we should treat her as if she is "completely normal". Yay!
