Dogs are noses, followed by four paws and a tail. Their eyesight is not so important to them. It is us humans who assign so much importance to eyesight. After all, we say "Look!" Dogs, if they used language like we do, would preface their sentences with "Smell!" After smell (and taste), their next most important sense is hearing.<br /><br />And even their eyesight is different. Less color, less focus in the center but more peripheral vision, less acuity in bright light but better low-light capability, a keenness for detecting motion and a faster refresh rate.<br /><br />Spring is in the air (sniff, sniff), and delectable fragrancy is in the nose of the besmitten!Mark Campbellnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1554264610305778874.post-28246103642528908882011-03-04T17:34:41.011+01:002011-03-04T17:34:41.011+01:00Just look at our Wilf in the company of Kelly!

The company of his own kind , in a controlled environment, may delight him no end. After all, he was used to having a brother. <br />Depending on the state of his retinas, he may see light and may still have a bit of vision in the periphery. What ever it is, Wilf will continue to love his life, his family and maybe a new girlfriend!
