I have a black and tan Doxie that is down now. This is a journey, I will NOT give up because they don't!

My dog is paralyzed from his rear legs. He's scheduled for an appointment Friday. This is an inspirational video. Thanks

[@WhiskeySharpShooter]

G wish you the best of luck with your dog. Please write back and let us know how it went.

[@markosbrazil1]

my little loki, the same thing happened to him, his paws were paralyzed and the doctors do not give me hope, he's 5 years old, but watching your video makes me believe again

[@FranktheDachshund]

Rocco, you are the man.

[@Ronbob59]

Thank you for your kind words. We are so happy Rocco is walking again. Our little Teddy never got his legs back, but he lives a good life and is loved. And thanks for letting me know that the chair helped Rocco get back to normal. Of course we all know that the real savior was you... Again, Thank You Ron

I'm glad to see that Rocco looks as if he shed some pounds from his middle at the end of the video when he is running . At the beginning of the video , I saw that he was an overweight dachshund with a large girth in the middle -and that his weight was probably a contributing factor with his temporary paralysis / loss of leg function .

Did he get acupuncture?

WE LOVE YOU ROCCO!!!

[@ChristineHorpinjuk]

Great video! This gives me hope.

My dog had the same problem, he did not get better

[@gagandhaliwal2007]

My 8 years old lab is paralysed .. My elder brother wants to put him to sleep .. I don't .. N after watching your video i won't !

[@ColoradoDiana]

What an inspiration! TY for your post. I hope my friend's dog can have the same outcome. Otherwise, at least we know the wheels will work :)

Well my dog was born 0n my house about three months ago, I have her mom and dad one day she escaped our fence when i found her she was feeling bad so we got her some meds for children because dog medicine is too expenive so the next day i see shes not eating anr hasnt been for like 2 days the next day I come home from school tobsee that she was paralzied i realized it was too late so i want to the ve5 to get the others vacceend when her mom jumps out of the car but she survives and is just fine i think the puppy died Im writing this on my ohone so i dont know yet please pray for her.

[@annecraig9157]

I know this post is old but human meds DO NOT equate to dog meds. If you cannot afford to take care of a dog, do not have one!

[@DstinctThunderz]

great video btw and love that dog:D

[@RealMcNartin]

did he ever get to the point he didn't support himself even with his front legs. mine is just laying to her side and won't even sit up anymore.

[@WhiskeySharpShooter]

nick martin He fully recovered. A mixture of the wheelchair and anti inflammatory meditation did the trick. He had a relapse where he almost went back in the chair but we gave him the same anti inflammatory meds and he was fine after.

[@DeniseEggertwaterlily]

What was the vet's diagnosis ? Was it IVDD ?

[@WhiskeySharpShooter]

Denise Eggert Yes, they gave him an anti-inflammatory but said he might never walk again. He is still walking as of today.

[@DeniseEggertwaterlily]

***** Paula from MT has a KZbin site that gives great information about all these conditions and she also suggests Dodgerlist as a resource and a support group. Paula states that some vets are more knowledgeable than others about these spine problems and there are two courses of treatment - conservative treatment and surgery - both with equal success rates. One thing that I have to agree with her on -is that if a dog is getting an anti-inflammatory medication , he/she should also be getting a weight based dose of pepcid to protect their stomachs - these dogs are probably even more sensitive to the effects of anti-inflammatory medicine on the stomach than humans. I'm glad that your dog has made such a great recovery.

[@YunqGunerz]

I Have the same dog and right now his Back Legs Dont Work Either and how did you make the Cart what video did you watch please help me
