This Blind And Deaf Poodle Gets Through Each Day With The Help Of Her 3 Doggy Sisters


Margaux, a nine-year-old Poodle, had a severe infection on her paw, her owners couldn’t tell what had caused it. At first, they thought it was a snake bite. After seeing a specialist in Boise, Idaho, the cause of the infection was found. Margaux has a disease called diffuse pyogranulomatous inflammation which was affecting her immune system.

Her paw healed, but the disease continued to spread to other body parts. Margaux went through times where she was completely healthy, and other times her disease affected her quite badly.
