Help My Lil Weeeen Walk Again — Emergency IVDD Care Needed!
What was supposed to be a fun, simple vacation has turned into an unexpected and emotional fight for my dog’s mobility and quality of life.
Pepper has always been a happy, healthy little guy — full of energy, personality, and love. He’s never had any major health issues... until now. Just a few days ago, he suddenly began showing signs of Intervertebral Disc Disease (IVDD), a painful spinal condition that can lead to paralysis.
At first, it was just a little weakness in one of his back legs. But things have progressed quickly — and today, after seeing a neurologist, I was told the speed of his decline is very concerning. What started as a small issue has turned into him struggling to walk at all.
We’re starting strict crate rest and conservative treatment to try and slow things down, but the truth is, it may not be enough. The risk of permanent paralysis is very real — and the only thing that might stop it is spinal surgery.
Unfortunately, the cost of that surgery and the follow-up care are more than I can manage on my own right now. That’s why I’m asking for help. Any amount — truly — would mean the world. It gives Pepper a fighting chance to walk, play, and live pain-free again.
Thank you for reading, thank you for caring, and thank you for helping me give my lil weeeen the love and support he deserves.
