Clyde at door 1

Alayne got this shot of little blind Clyde at the door to the living room a couple of days ago. He'd been racing up the ramp to the door, peering in, then zooming back down the ramp, across the yard, and up the other ramp to the center hallway door (where the seven closets are).  Not finding anyone there, he'd turn around and race back to this door. 

Our groomer, Lori Fillion, had also given Clyde a summer haircut on Monday, and he's just as cute as can be with his new look and his new bandana:

    Oh my goodness, Clyde is so precious!! He looks wonderful with his new cut and bandana.
    After enlarging the pictures, I got a good chuckle out of the expressions on his face while he’s peering through the door. That little face just makes me smile!

    Oh my goodness Clyde, you are so CUTE!! And it is nice to see Clyde lives by the credo…If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again. I wish I lived near enough to have Lori groom my little one, she does a great job!!

    Who could possibly resist that cute little face peering in the door! It’s amazing that being blind Clyde still is able to locate both doors to the house so easily.

    Clyde is so stinkin’ cute! And it’s amazing that he zooms around and comes to both doors like that without vision. I love these stories! Thanks for all you do.

    Clyde is cute as a button! Odd that he is “peering” in the door when he is blind. I wonder if he knows instinctively to get up on his hind legs so you guys will see him through the door??
