If your dog has become paralyzed or you are considering adopting a paralyzed dog, you probably have a lot of questions. What will your life with a paralyzed dog be like? Will your dog have a high quality of life or is euthanasia a better option? What will your daily routine be? Whether your dog will be paralyzed for life or may be able to recover with surgery, rest, or medication, you will need to provide special care. Learn everything that you need to know, from the first conversations with your veterinarian to adjusting to life with a paralyzed dog, to providing care and enrichment so that your dog will live life to the fullest. Find out how you can calculate your dog's quality of life to make the best decisions for her, as well as how to explain your choices to family and friends.
