re: Our Dachshund is paralyzed from a fall. Anyone dealt with this before?

I had the same thing happen very recently and it's rough. My first reaction was a wheel chair, but over the course of a weekend she wouldn't eat and couldn't go to the bathroom without us expressing her bladder. She was also extremely afraid and didn't understand what was happening to her so she basically stayed shaking and flexing her front legs for days until she wore herself out. In the beginning it didn't seem so bad and a wheel chair seemed viable but two days later it became clear that she was suffering and putting her down was the right thing to do.

it's a rough way to lose a dog
