Fiona the blind dog

Go ahead. Cry. You know you want to.

If the cowering doesn't get you, the happy tail will.

Here's a tissue.

It's OK. I won't tell.

I probably shouldn't have watched this 3 times before bedtime, because my dreams were full of abandoned animals living in shelters and trying to pick out just 1 to save.  But it's a beautiful video and it makes me happy/sad - happy she was rescued, sad so many of our animals live in such horrible circumstances.

And really, I don't understand how so many people can empathize with a dog but not, say, a cow: life is life, life just wants to live, and we have the ability to make ethical choices like vegetarianism.
