Not me, my dog.

Tuesday night Hunter was walking funny. Rear right leg wasn't working right. Thought maybe it was stiff from arthritis or something like that since he is 12. Yesterday morning neither hind legs were working right. Eventually he lost use of his back legs completely. Took him to the vet last night. Herniated disc. He cannot evacuate waste. Hopefully the antibiotic/anti inflamitory will get the swelling down and give him some use back and allow him to evacuate.

Sorry to hear that Huntr. I can't believe he is 12. He looked like he still had a lot of puppy in him last time I saw him. I hope he heals and gets better soon. :huggy:

FYI - Ingesting certain types of nuts can cause lower-limb paralysis in dogs too.

He's definitely a lot grayer in the face since you last saw him. I can't think of anywhere he could access nuts, except for acorns and maybe hickory nuts in the yard. It's not so much paralysis, as it is being numb. He can move his legs, but they can't support his weight and he can't always make them go where he wants them to.
