The Lonesome Blind!

So, he limited himself to a tiny box. This all kept on happening till the time, a magic happened in his life that had no way out.

 

 

The Owner!

Terfel is owned by Judy Godfrey-Brown who is an old lady now. She takes the best care of his pet in her power. She had adopted Terfel from his ex-owner. She resides in the Holyhead, North Wales. No doubt, Judy gave the dog a better life as Terfel had been extensively brutalized by his previous owner. In one instance, the cruel former owner hurled the dog against a wall coldly. At that time Terfel was very young. It was not the only case of brutality practiced by the owner. Hundreds of times, Terfel had become the victim of his owner’s mood. Judy the current owner is a retired civil servant of Holyhead. She is an animal lover who has adopted many animals other than Terfel.

It Happened!

Because of the constant barbaric treatment meted out to him, the dog eventually became partially deaf. Along with that, his seeing abilities also began to suffer. His eyesight began to dwindle. His old master had no feelings of sympathy for his pet so the dog had to suffer all the trauma quietly. Naturally, no one bothered to notice the changes in the dog until it took an extreme form. Lastly, he was taken to a vet when he got 8 years old. It was then, the vets noticed cataracts on his eyes. The dog’s eye had turned into milky white. The cataract gradually led to the complete blindness in the dog. Cataract is caused by the breaking of lens fiber with the eyes. When the excess water in the back of the actual lense overflows to the actual lens leads to cataracts. Cataract is commonly found in humans and dogs. As far as dogs are concerned then this species is predisposed to many types of cataracts. They can develop single eye cataract or some cataracts clouds both the eyes. The one with cataracts has whiteness in the affected lens. Cataract is a dangerous disease that can lead to blindness in severe cases. Terfel had received cataract in both the eyes that turned his life upside down until he witnessed a big miracle.
