Just cant believe its been a year (14/8) that peggy was paralysed(spinal cord damage) her back legs while running at the bsfa....i can still remember those awful words said by someone 'you need to get her to the vets now' and with the support and quickest of people we had her in the vets within 1/2 half an hour with tears rolling down my face...and then i had to leave her there

following day olivia had kindly drove me to collect her to transfer her to another vet which had a mri scan which had leave her for a further 3 days(at £100 per day i wanted her home asap) when we picked her up it was pitiful to see how much weight she lost and how the vet had her in a sling and placing each foot down..it was awful.but we were determinated not to give up her and luckily she improved my the day and was walking by 6weeks but her R hind took longer and will always remane the weakest and shes still slightly incontinent but even thats improved..even now she has regular vet checks

she now has a good quality of life and can run , play, catch ball..maybe she'll never be normal but shes still here with us, as she is my first ever dog she will always be special......yes Bow is tooo

heres a video hope it works as PB is slow and me computor playing up aswell

It's amazing to see how dogs can bounce back from even the most serious of illnesses, they are brilliant. I'm so pleased to see Peggy has done so well.
