Is there any special training i will need and if i was to breed her when she gets older what are the chances her puppies will be blind? Her eyes are glassy and she runs into things. she jumps when i pet her and acts like she can't see at all

Hi, sorry to hear about the vision problems your puppy is having. Have you taken her to a vet to have her eyes examined and a diagnosis made for the cause of the blindness? You should not breed from her at all. I recommend that you have her neutered as soon as she is old enough. She should be trained well to voice commands and be careful to keep her environment similar- e.g. not continually moving furniture. Most dogs adapt well to blindness.
