Cannabis & Blind Puppies

A British drug company is a step closer to launching cannabis-based medicine for patients suffering multiple sclerosis and other forms of severe pain.

Three blind Briard puppies, had their right eyes treated late last year with a single injection of thousands of copies of the corrective gene. Their left eyes were untreated as a control. The scientists planned to formally test eye function three months later, when the dogs were 6 months old. But well before those tests, the dogs were already reacting to light.
