My dog says animals don't let disabilities get them down. Humans tend to wallow in self-pity, but dogs just accept what they've been dealt and move on. Enter Chica.
Chica has no eyes. Yet, she plays fetch, jumps in the car, and runs with abandon--we could all benefit from having the same fortitude and love for life. Here's Chica's story:

Two-legged dog inspires soldiers
My dog says you have to check out this video featuring an amazing two-legged dog. Faith (no relation to my sister Faith) was determined to walk despite her disability and is now an inspiration to injured military veterans.

Blindness is no setback for animals
My dog says he just discovered a great website dedicated to the care of blind horses. The people who host the site also operate an animal sanctuary. Rolling Dog Ranch in Montana is home to blind horses, deaf dogs, and other loving creatures with neurological or orthopedic disabilities.
Animals with a physical or mental disability are still amazing companions. Over the years, my family has adopted four blind dogs and one deaf one. They got around remarkably well and possessed all the same great attributes as our other dogs—they were affectionate, playful, and ever so grateful.
Won't you consider adopting an animal with a disability who really needs a home? Or, perhaps, a donation to Rolling Dog Ranch or your favorite animal rescue group?
