My darling Cindy is now retired. She was having problems with bad arthritis and hip dysplasia. The vet and I agreed after her last x-ray that it would be best for her if we retired her, since I did not want her working when she was in pain. She is back with Guide Dogs in Brisbane. It was a very hard choice for me to make, but I want what's best for her and I felt she would be happier there where she can play with other dogs and maybe go to the beach. My instructor picked Cindy up, which was great because Cindy already knew her and wasn't fretting much. The last I heard she was doing well. I miss her very much. She was an excellent guide dog with a sweet and patient personality. I hope she's having fun and not missing us too much.
