Dog Playing Fetch Suddenly Becomes Paralyzed | The Dodo

1. On September 18th our beautiful dog was at the front door just watching the cars go by. Within minutes she went to stand up and couldn't. She crawled her way to the hutch and that was it. We took her to the ER and they told us she was paralyzed in her left leg. They started naming off all of these things they could do and when they got to the 3k MRI we said you might as well stop. But of all the exercises that you've showed on this post they never should anything to try and help her. We brought her home Sunday night and it was horrible. We had to take her back to our vet and they released her to heaven. My heart is breaking in a million pieces right now. Cherish your sweet angel and love her tight. A slice of pizza crust, a mini bagel with a spoonful of peanut butter. She'll love you forever and ever!!🐶🐶😭😭😪😪

2. Real Kool, good people,, awesome pup.. it's a good thing they have the funds for this very expensive care!

3. ❤❤❤❤

4. We are currently going through this with iur 14 year old sausage dog. He came running to battle the vacuum and out of no where his back legs stopped working. Luckily with daily exercises and patience he is able to walk unassisted and is coming back to recovery little by little. Its an absolutely helpless feeling when their back goes out and you can't figure out why.

5. Glad they stuck by her but what caused the issue tho???

6. You got very lucky because my German Shepherd went paralyzed and we tried everything we could ended up having to put him down just a week ago

7. Aw, poor doggo…😢

8. That is what happened to my sisters dog. So scary!

9. Some years ago, our then 9 year old Boston Terrier herniated a disc in her back and was suddenly paralyzed just like Chaps. My husband was at work and rushed to the ER vet to meet me. They said surgery was her best option but it would be expensive. My husband had recently received some money from his mom's life insurance. I was thinking about how much a wheelchair for dogs would cost as I was certain he would say it was too much for the uncertainty of a successful surgery. Without batting an eye he said we'd do the surgery. We had to drive her to the specialist vet, an hour from our home, and leave her. My husband took off his scrub top, he's a nurse, and left it so she would have a familliar scent. The surgery went well and we did all the things we were told to do to get her back to walking on her own. She surpassed the surgeon's expectations and went on to live another 6 happy years. She was her daddy's princess and is still greatlly missed.

40. What was the diagnosis?
    What was the diagnosis??? What was the diagnosis ??Why can't you say what the diagnosis was??!!!?
    I would hate for this to happen to my dog. What was the diagnosis?????? What was the diagnosis???????????

41. My girl, Jelly, suddenly was paralyzed one day. My kids and I were prepared to get her a doggy wheelchair, a wagon, or just carry her everywhere, happily, if that’s what she needed. Unfortunately, she was in too much pain and I couldn’t let her suffer like that. It broke our hearts to have to make that decision and to let her go but it was more heartbreaking to watch her be in that much pain. I felt like I was torturing her just because it hurt me to let her go.

    I had never had to make that decision before and I didn’t understand just how difficult and devastating it is…but the pain of seeing them suffer is far, far horrible.

    I miss her everyday. Love you, Jell Bell. ❤

42. What a beautiful girl!!

43. So happy your Furbaby is doing so good, this happened with my neighbors Furbaby and they have been doing the same water therapy for the past 5 years and unfortunately he is still in a wheelchair..
    So happy your baby was able to recover so well..❤

44. Did they ever say what actually happened? Glad she’s got great people in her life ❤

45. Any idea what caused her to suddenly be paralyzed? What an absolutely amazing family Bendito 🥰🥰🥰

46. This was heartwarming to see! Sometimes things happen in life, even with our pets and often times people just give up on them. thank you to this couple for showing their everlasting love to a very deserving family member. What a beautiful story. If this happened to My fur baby and I couldn’t afford the vet bill, I would try to sell a kidney! ❤️

47. I'd be curious to know if your dog had any of those doggy Chew's that are supposed to KILL FLEAS & TICKS from the inside.
    Because there's ONE in particular that causes paralysis.
    Do believe it starts with an S.

48. Love to see that tail wag and she's running again. Wonderful doggy parents. Congrats all the hard work paid off. ❤❤❤

49. "you get the hoodie" lolll

50. He gets the position of team leader with a t-shirt, yet she gets the hoodie…🤣
