Luna

When 7 year old Luna developed diabetes it brought other health complications for her. Both eyes formed cataracts and these rapidly worsened, causing blindness. Luna’s vet recommended bilateral cataract surgery to help Luna’s quality of life. With all her insurance cover being used for diabetes and investigations into her other complications, Luna’s family reached out for help.

The Schnauzerfest Bright Eyes Fund enables the charity to help dogs like Luna regain their eyesight and after a successful application, a Grant was in place. Luna’s cataract surgery is scheduled for mid April.

Luna’s surgery went ahead as planned and she’s recovering well.

Part of Luna’s home life involves accompanying her owner to her nursing job, specifically working with primary school children. They have loved seeing Luna again and had lots of questions about her surgery. She also has two young human siblings.

“Luna is enjoying her short walks, which my children are too! They love being able to get out and take her for walks again, something we couldn’t do as a family whilst Luna was blind as it was too stressful for her. Thank you for all your incredible support. ”
