A tiny terrier has taken on the role of guide dog for a blind Labrador.

Something that I came across today and really had to share with all of you... I can relate more with this as I see the greatest bond both my dogs have, they are literally inseparable!

A tiny terrier has taken on the role of guide dog for a blind Labrador.

Little Milo acts as Eddie’s eyes when the pair are out and about – and carefully leads him back to owner Angie Baker-Stedham when they’ve finished playing.

Milo has even been known to gently pull Eddie along by his lead.

Baker-Stedham, from Cardiff said: "Before Eddie went blind they both used to chase after dog toys, but now Eddie relies on Milo to help him play and they love going into the woods.

"Milo has always got his eye on Eddie and even sits on Eddie's back when he lies down.

"I first noticed that Eddie was going blind last year when he started to walk into wheelie bins and walls.

"It happened so quickly which is sad because before they used to play together so easily.

"Now Milo helps me to fetch Eddie when I call for him. He leads Eddie all the way back to me."

Milo took on the role of his assistance dog with no training.

Their 45-year-old owner added: "Milo really cares for Eddie, he always licks his face, they sleep in the same room and spend all their time together. Without Milo, Eddie would be lost.

"Milo even wears bells on his collar so that Eddie can follow him around. If Eddie wanders off, Milo will go and look for him and bring him back to me.

"It's a wonderful relationship and improves Eddie's quality of life, as his blindness is incurable."

Baker-Stedham said that while Milo was at PDSA hospital, Eddie struggled to cope.

She said: "We didn't realise how much Eddie depends on Milo to get around the house, he was walking into doors and furniture and I had to constantly call him while we were out on walks so he knew where I was and which way I was going."

Baker-Stedham, who has three of her own children and has fostered a further 61 over the past nine years, says Milo has helped create a loving family environment in her home.

Milo is now back home living a healthy life again and guiding Eddie once more.

The concept of 33 koti devata in Hinduism!

The concept of 33 koti devata in Hinduism: The Vedas refer to not 33 crore Devatas but 33 types (Koti in Sanskrit) of Devatas. They are explained in Shatpath Brahman and many other scriptures very clearly. "Yasya Trayastrinshad Devaa Ange Sarve Samaahitaa, Skamma Tam Bruhi Katamah Swideva Sah”. ~(Atharva Veda 10-7-13) Which means: with God’s influence, these thirty-three (supporting devta) sustain the world. In Brhadaranyaka Upanishad while discussing Brahman, Yajnavalkya is asked how many gods are there. He says that there are three hundred and three and three thousand and three gods. When the question is repeated? He says, thirty three. When the question is again repeated he says, six. Finally, after several repetitions he says ONE. (Chapter I, hymn 9, verse 1) The number 33 comes from the number of Vedic gods explained by Yajnavalkya in Brhadaranyaka Upanishad – the eight Vasus, the eleven Rudras, the twelve Adityas, Indra and Prajapati. (Chapter I, hymn 9, verse 2...
