Sight Scent Mapping Program
The SightScent mapping system was created out of frustration! Our Peggy (14-year old Rough/Border Collie mix) has had greatly decreased vision and hearing as she ages. We inherited 14-year-old Alfie (Papillon/Maltese mix), who is similarly deteriorating. But it wasn't until our beloved Enzo (7-year-old black Pug) went totally blind and deaf from SARDS within a few weeks that we really knew we had to do something.
Many of the tools used to assist blind dogs would not work for Enzo because of his contemporaneous deafness. It was heart-wrenching to see him sit in the middle of a room with his head hung. Standing motionless for long periods of time with his tail uncurled, a sure sign of unhappiness. Robbed of his hearing and vision in the prime of his life, Enzo came to rely on his sense of smell.
The SightScent system of Bkinz was created through much research, trial and error in an effort to assist these family members. Our other three dogs who do not have any deficits also approve! All three dogs have regained a sense of control and dignity in their lives. Enzo's tail is curled again!
