    MRSI diagnosed grade 5 IVDD (no peep pain sensation) in my 5yo mini Daxie. He had surgery 7 days ago and is still completely paralysed in his legs and entire rear end. Lots of rehab, physio and hydrotherapy to come. I'm terrified he will never regain the use of his legs. 😢

      Hey. Can you please make an update? Is he ok now??? I have a 5 years old frenchie and he got paralyzed in type 2-3. And now we are in 4th day after surgery and he is paralyzed his legs. Before surgery he could walk around 😢

      @christina_k also, your Frenchie may seem worse so soon after surgery as his op site will have swelling which presses on his spinal cord, so that should settle down.

    My female Malinois saw a bird and she quickly stood up to chase it. She stood up so abruptly that she injured herself and was temp paralyzed for 1 hour in the back legs and tale. We went straight to the vet and he told us to give her anti-inflammatory drugs and wait for it to improve. She is doing better now, she walks and moves her tail, but she runs very strangely, she uses both legs at the same time, she tends to slightly rotate her whole back body towards the left and she can't raise her tail all the way high-up to the sky as she used to (she is a very proud dog). I can't do x-rays etc. and I am learning massages and exercises to help her, but without diagnosis I don't know what her condition is. She is always so happy so it is difficult for me to understand where the pain is. I just do all the techniques for back pain, hip problems and IVDD. Thank you for your videos, you help us immensely!

    my dog is suffering IVDD (level 1~2). the doctor told my dog to stay calm/rest for 2 weeks. is that okay if I do this massage to my dog? Or should I leave him alone and rest for the full 2 weeks to heal?
