Meet Charlie and Maverick, the internet’s latest heartwarming doggo superstars. Charlie is an 11-year-old Golden Retriever who recently lost his eyesight to glaucoma. Glaucoma is a common ailment in aging dogs and almost 50% of those with ailment go blind within one year. Although sad, Charlie’s owner saw the situation as chance for more love to come into their house. Then comes Maverick.
Maverick is a 4-month-old puppy who now serves as Charlie’s guide. Charlie can very well be the first documented dog with his own seeing eye dog and the internet couldn’t handle how precious and heart-tugging the set-up is. Since his arrival, Maverick has been guiding Charlie in going to places and doing everyday dog stuff. It may seem like the relationship is one way but such is not the case. Maverick is a puppy and is still learning his ways and this is where Charlie helps him. Charlie has been helping Maverick with his manners and he’s been learning new skills and tricks everyday.
Maverick is not the only new addition to the family. Their owners recently had their first baby and everyday is a new adventure for this growing family with Charlie, Maverick, and their newborn son.
