That makes me so happy lmao fell in love with this girl and her dog instantly

Awesome. Thx for the update.

Unless you are related to her or trained her, why would you be proud of her?

@@summerrr1 girl…….. imma just laugh at u

Wow 🤩 Radar deserves a medal too. He’s a part of her 😄😉

He sure is a good boy

😅

He sure is a slick devil, that boy! Silver-tongued kisser! 🥰😍❤️❤️❤️

A furry Joey Tribioni. Walks up to each girl saying "How you doin?"

my brother does the same thing

It made me grateful for having proper vision which I often take for granted. Can't imagine how tough it would be if they lost Radar. Overcoming that grief would be devastating.

So cute and adorable

Apart= separated A part= a piece that is one of a whole Weirdly enough, putting the "a" and the 'part" together means the opposite. Lol

I would say the paralympics are a bit more than a competition

Please stop baby-ing and underestimating the disabled. The Paralympics have been on for years and from the greek root para meaning in conjunction with or side by side. The Paralympics is just as important and the Olympics

Give me a break, Ariana. No one in this comment thread was "baby-ing or underestimating" the disabled. In fact, the OP was admiring the young lady.

@@ariana_208 shut up twitter user

if she's completely blind she does an incredible job of looking towards the camera/attempting to mkae eye contact

I agree!

YES! What an amazing role model he is.

I was so amazed at how beautiful that was

That choked me up. What a total hero!

Her coach is the extent of what kindness is and should always be. I was shocked when she stated that other swim coaches refused to train her. Definitely there loss if you ask me. She is truly a blessing and fortunate to have such a excellent swim coach and trusted individual. People, with disabilities have hopes , dreams and aspirations. Just like other people walking around without challenges.

Absolutely 100% agree!

Wow! Had I not seen her with the service dog, I would have never guessed that she's blind!

My thoughts exactly

@Biden Family Values your bigotry is wrong.

Hey

I have a feeling she is more positive than me

She won’t be blind in heaven that’s for sure

@@supermotoj9561 this is beautiful

Sarah Conley There's a utube video called George to the Rescue. George Oliphant is a remodeling construction guy and he has this show where he goes into peoples hiuses and dies remolding for for families in need. They're about 20 minute videos but they're great. Anyway, he did a shiw with thus young lady and her family, and apparently she wasn't always this positive. When she started losing her sight she became very depressed to the point of suicide. May I suggest you watch the video. It is quite amazing the resilience of this young lady but her famy as well.

@@darrenheadrick3669 And back then, she was still using a cane and maybe some help from her mother. I would love an interview of when and how they decided to get a guide dog as I thought her career as a swimmer may not be suitable for her to get one. I know from that episode that she is a follower of Molly Burke, who primarily uses guide dogs.

I was thinking the same thing 🥺💕

I’m not crying you are 🥺😭

To hear her say that, that tagged on my heart too ...

Me the ALPHA M*LE of this comment section and me command RESPECT. Right now me telling you to NOT observe any of me nice cool sweet videos. Instead just look at me awesome good powerful thumbnails. Thank you, dear sre

@@AxxLAfriku First of all, dont go saying youre the alpha. Thats with wolves, and you clearly are not a woof if you can type like that. 2nd, Do not try to promote your channel in such cringy way. Youre just asking for people to call you out and not subscribe. I see you everywhere promoting and being weird. If you want subscribers, just let your videos still. Maybe try joining collabs. Idk anything really

yay! .. we have a water dog too.. *Portuguese water dog.. so glad Radar is helping have a better life.. they are very cute together ❤

lol.. ha ha ha.. 😆 Radar kisses her 💋 her so much.. 🥰 .. snorezzzzz too 🤣

@@user-dp7db9xr7v yea.. *OR... maybe ADOPT a nice animal and love it SOOOO MUCH !! 😃 ... "that" might show that *U are not a total maniac.. *maybe? 🤔 ?

Have you ever seen an episode of MASH? 🪖

😂😂😂

I’m surprised he doesn’t jump into the pool!!

or it could also be because they are paid, are doing their job, and have a decent work ethic.

That is very true 💜

@@fjp9 shhhh negative Nancy, let people be happy with the belief of good people

@@shorttree3463 😂 believe away. there are lots of good people out there who go the extra mile, but there are also lots of people out there who are just doing what they were hired to do and do it well.

and water is wet : )

yea.. I loved ♥ Radar's 🥰 ♥️ happy face and tail wagging too.. 😃

That's labradors.

@@hurtighansen1 yup!

Ive never seen a lab with a stationary tail lol

I wanted to see how she did in the Paralympics because I thought they already were done (I don't really care for sports) and I just learned that she set a world record twice in S11 400 freestyle. First setting it in prelims then later breaking it again in finals of the Paralympic trials. Which is amazing.

@@Far1988 hell yeah, awesome... find out how she did in the Tokyo games for us.

@@BuffaloNickel9 she did awesome!

@@jowhite4048 awesome! God always gifts to those who are kind hearted

Right when she lost the majority of her vision she actually didn't, but nobody would. Its either laying in bed depressed all the time or embracing it and finding ways around the challenges.

Even I couldn’t stop crying. May all be happy in this world. May there be no suffering in anyone’s heart.

@@Absolutely-nothing80 Yes. Yes. Yes please no more suffering to defensless humans and animals. Please no more. We can stop it all of us. I am not on twitter, Facebook only for my vast family to wish them good wishes. Not Instagram either. I'm just finished my shift. Double shifts. Now I'm going to do 3 and 4. and hopefully home 🏡 to rest and chill out now 😴

Your pfp gives the comment more feel

Human*

@@LincolnLagger they spelt it wrong on purpose-

@@GH0oulz we do not care 😀

@@LincolnLagger nope she got it right it’s hooman

I thought that was cool too. At first I thought he did it to everyone til he was just leaning and chatting, waiting for her to come back. 🤦🤦 I think I need some caffeine....lol

I had to say bye to my 14 year old yellow lab yesterday. It was the hardest thing I have ever had to do. I still doesn't seem real

@@Nazman06 So sorry for your loss. Bet the pup had a great life.

You will need time to heal and there will always be a scar left. But there is love

@@Nazman06 So sorry for your loss😔....I feel you, my dog passed away 7 months ago....my condolences.

@@Nazman06 may your dog rest in eternal peace🕊❤

Right?? I was fine until that part. 😭😭

I agree!

Awesome! I'm so glad you have such a wonderful partner to help you 🐶

That is a great way to describe Dusky. He IS your Ability Dog! The key word is Ability!

Congratulations to you. I am so glad you have the ability to be mobile and adapt to enjoy life with comfort. With the assistance of your cohort in crime.

Best wishes to you with your new helper! Now go out and enjoy life - and help others whenever you can.

Ditto

Amen!

for real ⭐

Dear Lynn I am so very sorry. I have severe Rheumatoid Arthritis and have a very difficult timr. I will be thinking of you and your beloved daughter.

@@juneshahin6169 I understand what you’re going through, saw it through my daughter, a once active girl in the school band Color Guard and starting her third year in College to become a Meteorologist and engaged. Thank you so much ☺️ and I pray that technology ramps up and bring cures to all that are suffering.

Bless you

I’m very sorry for your loss. I suffer from severe RA myself & just learned that my heart is suffering irreversible damage. It’s a terrible disease. God Bless.

I'm so sorry. I have RA.

I'd have to check the rules, but that might be part of the sport for blind swimmers...similar to guide with the blind skiers.

@@samsignorelli Blind skiers?? Wow-that's amazing!

@@watermelonwishes4193 Yep...and the paras use the same facilities and courses the able-bodies do.

Yeah the pole is to let her know that she’s about 2 metres from the wall. That way she knows how many strokes she has left before she needs to turn. As an ex-swimmer myself you can barely hear anything under water and mostly rely on sight to estimate when you need to turn. When you first learn to do turns they tell you to count your strokes from the flags to the wall or get you to do turns from the T bar out. That way when you see the flags or T bar in competitions you know how far you are from the wall. Also in competitions coaches are not allowed to yell any instructions to you as your swimming as it’s considered cheating. But the pole is considered mandatory for blind/disabled swimmers and usually the organisation running the competition will have someone hold the pole out for them.They may even get a small head start.

My cousin's yellow lab retriever is exactly the same. He's such a tart 😂.

@@gjsykes7924 Ha!Ha!

mine too

He his soul rest in peace 🙏2 days ago even my cat ran away.. Bw I'm from India too😊

Try and get another cat. It helps.

@@juneshahin6169 I have three cats. He was my first and we were bonded. I love all of them but losing them is hard.

I am so sorry for your loss - it's been over a year since my mom and I tried to comfort our cat as she passed and I still deeply miss her.

Same here. I lost my little baby on June 2nd, a little over a year ago. Losing him hurt so badly but I wouldn’t take any of it back. The amount of love and happiness he gave me during my hardest times is too much, I wouldn’t ever want to undo it to get rid of my pain. My depression and anxiety did come back full force, but I decided to face them on my own because my cat wouldn’t want me to feel terrible, he would want me to be happy. So I’m trying to do that. I’m staying strong so that I won’t undo all the progress I made thanks to him. This means that in a way, even now that he’s gone, he’s still here with me and helping me. Animals are wonderful and can help you heal so much. And all they need from you is to love them back and take good care of them. I’m so happy we’re able to experience that kind of special bond with them. Your cat too would want you to be happy. And you have their brothers and sisters there to help you as well. I hope you’re doing well. Time will help with the pain. Your cat will always be with you, in a way. :)

Animal s. Are. Specially. God. Bless

LOL! This is going to be my new favorite phrase when my dog emphatically wags his tail...don't break your butt!! Thanks for the giggle, Bill!

Rotflmao

ikr......

I wonder what's worse

@@jeremysmith9694 Impossible to tell as you can't experience both. Always having been blind might be easier but who can tell.

Or show us the fight of your life 👍

I kinda wanna see some Para bling hanging from Radar now. The Pras are 2 weeks after the regular O-Games. Normally I pay attention to the wheelchair fencing, but I think I'll check the women's swim events as well.

@Loulou Bos I know but I am surprised the dog did not over rule that decision!😉

Indeed. Me too

Mee toooo nobody understands

Hello

I suffer from mild face blindness so unless I see a certain person in a certain context or location, I might not remember them. Far from being a negative, it allows me to always create a good impression. I would never remember someone for having a specific disability so I won't look to pity that person but deal with them as a human.
