I wish I had an animal

When I was in Wellington I got to see how much more blind the family dog had gone.  He followed me into a room and was hanging out with me, then my Mum called to him and he whipped around and ran full tit into the wall next to the door way.  Then he recovered and turn the wrong way (still inside the room) and looked confused.  I didn't know whether to laugh or cry.  I felt sad, but it was also really, really amusing.  I laughed a little bit after consoling him.  But not until he left the room.  Do dogs get embarrassed?
