GRANTED!

Wish Granted by: nataliesnana pezcmw03 amandafl pburkham 46sko Sep 21, 2009

I WISH I could afford a helmet for my blind dog

My Dachsund went blind suddenly a while back. The vet said it was aquired macular degeneration. It is permanate. I have been working with her trying to teach her one word voice commands so when I see that she is about to bump into something I can say "Bump" and she stops and finds her way around the obstical. (That is the best command I've taught her so far.) But when I am not looking or when I'm not fast enough she will bump into something hard enough to make her yip. I have found a training helmet, that will teach her where things are. There are big whiskers on it. The problem is I can't afford to pay the whole price by myself. I am on a fixed income. The Helmet costs $89.00 plus some change (On line price) I can pay a maybe half of that but would sure appreciate a little help with the other half. Stretch & I would appreciate so much if you would help so she doesn't bang her her poor little head We, That is Stretch and, I do appreciate your time reading our wish.
God Bless ya all
Deb

  Just keep the money I sent and use it for a toy or something!

  Myguy, I have not heard of such a rule. Maybe I have been out of the loop a little bit to long. Is this a new rule?
  But I do know that another member cannot make a wish on the behalf of another WUAH member.
  

• myguybones55 11 months ago

  The WA is not able to help me because I am also a WA and it is against the rules for 1 WA to help another WA

• QuietAngels 11 months ago

  We understand a WA is trying to help get this for you and hopes to have an answer very soon. If she is not able to get this donated, we will give you the last $20 you need to get half covered. We will wait and make an official offer if needed. Sincerely, Quiet Angels

• myguybones55 11 months ago

  Thanks overwelmed. I'll do that tday, they are used to teaching me stuff. LOL

• Overwhelmedbystress 11 months ago

  You can contact Admin or Security and have them change the state for you. Once you have a offer, you cannot edit the wish.

• myguybones55 11 months ago

  can someone please tell me how to edit this wish so I can put my correct State in the space, I live in Ilinois NOT Idaho.
  Thanks e one

• myguybones55 11 months ago

  nataliesnana: I'm a WA also, But I didn't think I should make a wish and contact people myself for me. I want to thank you for what you are trying to do for me.

• nataliesnana 11 months ago

  I am in the process of contacting companies as a WA

• myguybones55 11 months ago

  I'll go look at that site, I have it in my saved places,
  Thank you for going to the trouble of looking one up for me.

• Renee11201 11 months ago

  Aww.. Im sorry to hear about your dog. What website is it that you are looking at? I found one for $69.95

• myguybones55 11 months ago

  Thank you everyone for your good thoughts and hopes, and to those who are donating too. I thought I would say real quick, that If I get more donations than I ask for, I will either get a nicer helmet, or use the excess money to help other WUAH members. More likely the later, because stretch doesn't need a top of the line helmet, but others on this site do need things.
