Blind Cork woman Lena Gourley hopes to get ‘eyes’ back
Lena Gourley, from the city’s northside, was distressed about the decision of Irish Guide Dogs for the Blind to take lab retriever Elsa to its Ballincollig headquarters as part of its dog welfare programme three weeks ago.
The charity sometimes brings guide dogs into its Cork headquarters to undergo a health and fitness programme. However, it is hoped that Elsa could be back with visually impaired Lena in another few weeks as she progresses well towards the 8kg weight-loss target.
