I received an email saying someone responded for my help questions? but did not see a new post. If you can
please respond if you can help us. thank you
We would like to bring Lucy home and see what we can do . I am wondering if you knew anyone that can help me? Work with her if I brought her to them?
Thank you for responding . Lucy’s vet says she cannot feel much in her back legs. but when they do the test on her and pinch her legs or paws she moves a bit. She also had rectal feeling. but they say she is not in any pain. SHE HAD ABSOLUTELY NO SYMPTONS BEFORE I FOUND HER. SHE WAS RUNNING AROUND LIKE NORMAL AND SHE WOKE UP LIKE THIS . She has never cried out in pain, even when I first found her and she could walk much on back legs. Even when we visit her she does not cry out in pain. She just wines cause she wants us to tak her home. but now she seems content at vets and they are so good to her.
She can use her front legs but not her back legs. We want to
bring her home but don’t know how we would get her to go to bathroom. She is alert and eating and drinking. She looks very normal
except she can’t move her back legs. Her paws are turned back under she does not lay them flat so I can’t stand her up. She has been in the vets since this past monday. she is still on antiobotics and steroids. they are keeping her there still. Because I can’t take
her to bathroom. they think i should consider putting her down if she doesn’t change. I can not afford much since I am unemployed from virus and raising a grandson alone. My grandson does not want to put her down.
I know it is hard for you to help me without seeing her but any suggestions would be great. I was also thinking if I knew someone that could help me with her to recover we could bring her there. If you have any suggestions please let me know.
Lucy is a lab/border collie, 4 years old, 55 lbs and in great shape . she loves running after squirels and is very very active here in
OBX.
Thank you
