Puppy's Rescuer's Finally Figure Out Why He's Scared | The Dodo

[@rebekoko]

As a type 1 diabetic I can assure you without insulin he was not only on his out, but his body was weak, extremely painful and his blood supply was toxic with major organs shutting down slowly, the feeling is frightening plus being in shelter untreated, indescribable really. I am so grateful this was noticed, treated and now he is loved, happy, safe and his condition is managed…what a beautiful boy!

[@JeanGillespie-fp7rs]

Handsome lad!❤❤❤

[@fiofiofioletta1898]

Our cat was a few hours from passing and we had no idea what was going on. Rushed her to emergency vet. She was critical for 4 days, but once she was in insulin and special food, she was also is another 5 healthy years. It's not as expensive as people think and definitely worth the small expense.❤

[@majo7028]

@@fiofiofioletta1898 My dog has epilepsy and he gets pills that cost me 240 € a year and he is worth every penny (and I am not rich). I can't understand how some people want to get rid of their animals as soon as they are ill, that disgusts me. I would rather do without something than that my dog has to suffer, he is doing very well with the tablets and he is now 11 years old and my one and only.

[@ms.mojo_risin]

We had the same happen with our fur baby cat Romeo, and thankfully our vet was right next-door to where we lived. I don’t think he would’ve made it if we had to drive any further we were on the phone with her immediately he was going into diabetic coma I think because he was limp eyes fixed and I am a “helicopter mom” as everyone at the vet affectionately calls me so he’s doing very well now, my husband checks him and he has insulin shots when he needs them. 🧡

Chewy is such a bright personality. Wonderful to see him shine after being so broken.

[@kristinb6500]

I'm so glad they found out what was wrong with him, and on top of that, he was adopted thank you

[@DonnaMayStanish]

❤️

[@enochabraham688]

He wasn’t afraid of humans per se, he was afraid because his physiology was so out of wack that he probably couldn’t manage the world with any security. As a human, when diabetes manifests in the system, the experience can be extremely discombobulating when you don’t know how to identify the source of the symptoms. Before I got diagnosed, I maybe peed 9 times an hour. So for a dog, I can imagine that would be an absolute nightmare, especially after being on the street. Glad to see the 180 he was able to make after getting proper treatment.

[@melodiefrances3898]

Soooo true. I have a different illness, but when you feel badly sick, you just can't feel safe. 😢❤

[@LolliHarlan]

So thankful for this doggies parents, who cared enough to find out what was wrong.

[@GeekGamer666]

It's actually also possible he was abused because he wasn't acting like the perfect puppy people expect. If he was peeing too much he may have made messes and gotten abused for that as well.

[@SpoiltLittlePrincess]

Oh yeah. Type 1 here, I knew what he had the moment they listed the symptoms out. And seeing the monitor on him was so cute!

[@enochabraham688]

@@GeekGamer666 yea that can happen a lot. When I was living in the hood, there was so much animal abuse because folks literally had no real idea how to take care of animals. No spaying or neutering, reprimanding pets by leaving them outside in freezing temps, physical retaliation… it got pretty bad because they were ignorantly responding to health issues that they didn’t have the resources or knowledge to manage correctly. I think the health problems made it impossible for the dog to have enough operational ability to notice and gel with the safe environment they were in. They were left without care for an extended period of time, and given how much more attentive animals can be to physiological activity, he probably didn’t know up from down. So if abuse was in the picture, it would know how to assess anything else until physiological stability came through. But once it got treatment, it settled in instantly. It’s just a really good story that the homie got proper treatment and can enjoy being safe and loved now👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

[@Brad-pc3bi]

I have the female version of this breed. She was a stray in Tennessee, covered in ticks, came out of the forest and sat on my front porch in the rain as a puppy, same age as this one. She is still with me 7 years later. She is glorious.

[@chairmanmeow8388]

My staffy is diabetic. Its a big commitment but its completely worth it. Bless doggies.

[@cordeliawl]

My childhood kitty developed diabetes in her older years. It seemed so overwhelming when we had a meeting with the vet about how to care for her. I was a teenager, maybe 15, but it was my cat so I was going to do the insulin injections. It ended not being at all as bad as I imagined. After a while, she seemed to know it was time (it was done on a schedule) and she would hop up on a particular chair and wait. Best patient ever.

[@carolalmeida220]

Yes I have a Terrier with Cushings 3 years now, Diabetes that was caused by the Cushings 1 year now. It's a Great Big Comment but I'd do it again and again if it will keep her Healthy enough and Happy! ❤

[@carolalmeida220]

​@@cordeliawlWonderful Cat for sure! I work in Rescue and I know Cats are BOSSES 😂

[@chairmanmeow8388]

@cordeliawl when we were told poppy was diabetic the vet asked if we'd be willing to inject her twice a day. He looked surprised when I said yes, of course. That made me think that a lot of people must say no which is a shame. I'm sure nobody likes having to do it but a happy and relatively healthy pet makes it completely worth it.

[@chairmanmeow8388]

@carolalmeida220 may your doggy live a long and happy life. My dog is ten and she's like a puppy again now we've changed her diet and put her on insulin. Can I ask what you feed your dog? We give ours scrambled eggs in the morning. Kibble with offal during the day then a bowl of porridge at night. Seems to be working.

[@Sabgav1]

He’s got beautiful eyes.. and he’s beautiful as well! Little poor baby boy..

[@chicobicalho5621]

[@erinmalone2669]

My older cat had diabetes, and even though I was only in high school I gave her injections twice a day and would neglect going to peoples houses because I had to be home at certain times to be able to give her her insulin. Even though I had to give her shots, she never even tried to run from me or complain. She knew I was helping her and she loved me since I was four years old. The Second the video said the dog was very thirsty and peed a lot I knew it was diabetes. Thank you for not giving up on chewy😢❤❤❤
