FCD I’m sorry to hear about your buddy.
I have an Aussie Shepherd/Blue Heeler cross (oddly enough called a Texas Heeler)
Who turned 13 this year. And while her hearing has been slowly going, we’ve noticed that her eyes are getting the blue tint inside meaning cataracts.
Cattle dogs are so visually looking for cues, and of course whistles, clicks or whatever they respond to that we decided not to move cattle with her this year thinking that she may get hurt. She thinks that she is still a young lady.
It’s sad, but I was going to suggest the hand clapping with a smile works for us.
I’m glad that you are able to work it out!

If it’s hot, wet and sticky and it’s not yours, don’t touch it!
