My dog suddenly became paralyzed and within an hour my life completely flipped.
00:08
I was taking him to the dog park, unleashed his leash, and when he sprinted off he slipped on something.
00:15
All of a sudden he could not get up. He's paralyzed from the waist down, like, in a matter of seconds.
00:22
We rushed him to an ER and when the vets told me he may not be able to ever walk again, I was completely crushed.
00:31
It was my birthday the day he came home. The vet told me that he may not be able to figure out that he's going to the bathroom.
00:40
So I kept him in the shower, put down a little bed for him, and I could not bear leaving him in there alone.
00:47
So I set up a bed right outside for myself.
00:51
This was incredibly hard to deal with, but he started wagging his tail and I realized that he's going to be just fine.
00:58
He is in good spirits. Watch this. Touch. Yes! Good job!
01:04
About a week after he came home, I was able to get him straight into a physical therapy place.
01:12
They basically did a lot of balancing exercises. And then, of course, the infamous underwater treadmill.
01:19
You got it, buddy. You got it, buddy.
01:23
The most important thing for Cooper was to remain active.
01:27
As hard as that was for me, like, emotionally, I don't want him to hurt himself ever again.
01:33
I took him out on walks three, four times a day.
01:38
There he is. Good job, buddy.
01:41
I was supplementing some of that weight for him because he can't put his paw down and hold it himself.
01:46
Every day that passed, he just got a little bit better.
01:50
I swear, Cooper just made the most progress he's ever made.
01:54
I think he literally just took an entire step with his back left leg.
01:58
Let's see if he can do it again.
02:00
Okay. It's this leg. That leg. Come on.
02:06
Yes!
02:09
You make me so nervous, buddy.
02:12
You make me so nervous, buddy.
02:14
And then it was me walking in the balcony and him following me.
02:19
Yay! Good job, buddy! You did it!
02:24
Let me show y'all from this angle.
02:26
Cooper!
02:29
Good boy!
02:32
It made me feel so incredibly happy and grateful.
02:37
Cooper is so resilient.
02:39
Oh, buddy. You make mommy so happy.
02:45
At this point, he's off his butt leash.
02:48
Now Cooper is living a great life.
02:51
He's zooming around like he's a puppy again.
02:56
He's just swimming like nothing ever happened to him.
03:00
He's a happy boy.
03:03
It was so amazing to see him just be a dog.
03:07
Are you having a good time, buddy?
03:09
He looks at me like, I don't have to worry about a thing when you're around.
03:13
And to me, that is just the ultimate sign of love.
03:17
It makes me feel completely proud and extremely happy.
