I think it's good too.
We even had an electric toothbrush we got told to use on his feet.
I really hope she makes it far too!
It's a battle but so so so worth it.

Re: Acute non-compressive nucleus pulposus extrusion
And yes! Nerve damage recovery is measured in months and years. Not days or weeks. I also didn't get why they were so negative? Maybe to prepare us? But like you, we had to try and luckily it worked out x I hope your little one is OK. And you're so amazing doing this plus having a little one too x

Re: Acute non-compressive nucleus pulposus extrusion
Hi! I'm so so so sorry to hear about Nelly. I know how hard it is, and you're right - a lot of vets are quite negative. We actually found a great dog physio who helped and was positive which we really needed. Buddy's progress was so gradual - one day I noticed he was standing on a grip mat we had (v...

Re: Acute non-compressive nucleus pulposus extrusion
No worries at all. It's a really hard time, and hard to have hope against the odds. But our physio have us so much hope. And there are products around that help them too.
Buddy had an Instagram if you'd like to see his progress.

Re: Acute non-compressive nucleus pulposus extrusion
Hey, Buddy is doing great. He is walking again, although not 100%. But he can go for walks up to 15-20 mins and run. He does fall over but he is strong and happy. Physio helped a lot! He does still have continence issues but this is a small price to pay. Good luck. It's such a hard time x I hope you...

Re: Acute non-compressive nucleus pulposus extrusion
Buddy is doing well! Very happy and recovering well from his bladder infection. No improvement in his legs yet. He can stand for a few seconds but it seems to be more balance. We are his neuro next week and meet his physio then too! You're right. It's so tough for us. Really rough. I worry constantl...

Skin twitching in paralysed dog
Hello everyone =) My gorgeous Buddy is about 2.5 weeks out of a spinal injury (grade 5 - total rear leg paralysis). He is pretty happy and eating and drinking etc. But his back the last few days is twitching. It's like his skin is crawling. Or it will all shift to one side, and twitch back. It's get...

Re: Acute non-compressive nucleus pulposus extrusion
Thanks all for the support so far. You're right - the diagnosis matters for treatment, but the care is very similar. He can poop on his own. We are expressing his bladder for him, but he occasionaly leaks so we have bought a belly band to try. He doesn't have any deep pain according to the neurologi...

Hello all =) Firstly - reading your posts have been so informative and reassuring. You guys seem so amazing. My boy Buddy is a Pug x Jack and is 5 years old. 11 days ago he suddenly yelped and since has been paralysed in his rear legs. He had had a CT & MRI and been diagnosed with acute non-comp...
