Err kind of worried-I dont know what exactly to think :S

Maybe this behaivor will pass once she gets used to her vision failing? My uncle has a beagle that is blind. She was a bit aggressive at first, but now she's mellowed alot. I agree, though. No moving furniture... someone accidently pulled out a dining room chair, and my uncle's dog ran straight into it.
Good luck to you and her!

Aww, poor girl. I don't know how to help but... good luck!

Actually I do have a sight-impaired dog -- Sherman. He developed a genetic condition, juvenile cataracts, and went almost entirely blind in only three weeks as a puppy, but fortunately his sight is gradually improving. Because Rockee probably has age-related cataracts, she probably won't improve. They can do cataract surgery if it's really bad, my vet said that often getting one eye corrected really helps, but it's expensive. So if you can adjust her enviornment, she'll get along just fine. Good advice about this, as usual, from Glacier. You know, she may be getting hard of hearing, too, so things startle her because she can't hear as well - but only a trip to the vet will help you determine just what's going on. Good luck, will keep paws crossed it's nothing more serious than old age.

Thanks guys
I hopefully can get her to the vet but my mom is had to take the dogs to the vet unless theres something really worng. She will just say"shes old and going blind theres nothing wrong with her and I dont want to pay that money to be told something I already know"

Please try to convince your mom to take her to the vet. You need to know for sure what's going on so you can handle it correctly.

Glacier said exactly what I would have said (but put it better than I could). My dog, Bear, was blind for the last 5 years of his life and did very well. His cataracts were from diabetes.

If her hearing is also going, walk hard when approaching so she can feel the vibrations in the floor.

I don't know very much, but Good Luck !

P.S. ... Hey, maybe you could get a seeing eye dog?

I know how it feels to notice your dog is getting old. Just keep up with discipline and spend lots of time handling the dog physically. There is a white shepherd down the street who has gone blind in old age. I approach her slowly and give her plenty of time to recognize me. She growls pretty vicious when I first walk up to her. They need to get used to people touching them and walking with them when they can't see, so they don't become reclusive.
