A 10-year-old dog who lost both of her eyes to glaucoma has found a remarkable support group in her two younger siblings.  Jessica VanHusen, whose oldest rescue Akita had both eyes surgically removed, says she’s been left in tears after watching her two youngest dogs band together as her Seeing Eye dogs.  This selfless and endearing act, which sees the pair guiding Kiaya around their Waterford, Mich. home with prods and nuzzles, was one they apparently picked up all on their own.  "She relies on them. When they are coming in from the back yard they rub up against her. They guide her," VanHusen, a veterinary technician, told WXYZ-News. "I think she would be lost without them."  The ophthalmologist who removed both of Kiaya's eyes after the pooch’s two-year battle with the debilitating eye condition expressed the same excitement and astonishment after witnessing it firsthand.  "It's amazing to watch," Dr. Gwen Sila with BluePearl Veterinary Partners hospital said in a press release Thursday. "It's clear the other dogs are trying to protect her. Their sense of loyalty is really remarkable."  VanHusen said it was her middle, 8-year-old dog Cass who was the first to step in to help guide Kiaya after her left eye was removed in July 2013.  The dutiful younger brother stuck by her side and protectively lay next to her — on the side she couldn't see out of.  When Kiaya's second eye had to be removed 15 months later Cass' protective nature only increased, she said.  It's a moving sight that VanHusen says occasionally leaves her teary eyed.  "Cass always allows Kiaya to get to her food dish first and waits for her to start eating," VanHusen said. "When I take them in the car, he leans against her to keep her steady because she sometimes gets a little off kilter. He also loves to groom her."  She admitted that her youngest 2-year-old dog Keller has been a little slower to catch on to Kiaya's needs but he's been steadily becoming more and more receptive as he gets older.  "They're an inspiration to everyone," VanHusen said. "I hope others will see them and realize that a special needs pet deserves a chance. It takes a little effort, but it's absolutely worth it."
