I sat down at the breakfast table this morning and looked over to see this sight next to me -- that's blind and deaf Spinner ... or Spin, as we usually call her -- sound asleep on the cot. There was something striking about the angles and colors that caught my eye, so I headed to the office to get the camera.
Here's the straight-on view:

Spin is such a pretty girl!
Nice to see her enjoying a snooze before her next nose up in the air and spin session.

Anyone who thinks blind and deaf dogs have no possibility of quality of life needs to see these pictures. What a beautiful, contented girl.

What a precious face! She looks so relaxed with not a care in the world. I would love to tickle her ears!!!

I really think that Spinner is just beautiful! I love the way she communicates with the world too! The pink & black on her nose is great along with the solid white! Yup, hands down she is gorgeous! Love you, Spinner!

Spinner is so beautiful. It's great to see her looking so well.

Big white dogs are, to me, striking and beautiful, as is Spinner. There is a white German Shepherd at the shelter where I volunteer, who has recently had surgery for ingrown eyelashes, giving him the white and pink look Spin has. They look effervescent! Glad Spinner is so comfy!

Spinner is most beautiful & clearly at peace in total comfort (as we all should be!). Great pictures!

Has beautiful Spin had anymore seizures ??
The entry Linda mentioned where you blew to Spin so she'd know you were with her must have been before I discovered your blog. It brought tears to my eyes so now I have to search so I can read the whole story.
You guys are special people. I look forward to meeting you one day.

Spinner is such a beautiful and remarkable girl. I love the black spots on her ears. I've never met her, but she's one of my favorites. I always remember Steve's description of flying to So. Cal. with her to visit a specialist, and the comment that you blew on her face in the crate when you landed so she knew you were there. That really struck me... what a wonderful way you found to communicate with her! She could be the poster child for disabled dogs able to enjoy life.
Last week I said I heart Travis. I heart Spinner, too.
