Paralysis and Hydrotherapy
Here is a wonderful story about a dog that never gave up and a hydrotherapy team who never quit on him. It’s about his mom who stood by him and a veterinarian who believed in him. This is about Cyrus who is nothing short of a miracle and all those who fell in love with him. This is about a recovery from total paralysis from a racoon scratch. Enjoy this story and be amazed at how much hydrotherapy can actually help our pets!
Polyradiculoneuritis and Canine Hydrotherapy
This is my story about how I recovered fully from Polyradiculoneuritis (coon hound paralysis), and the people who saw me through it all. I went from being a vibrant and healthy active dog in my prime to being totally paralyized from the neck down in less than a week. It happened so fast even my mom did not know what happened to me and we were all very scared! Watch my movie and see how I made a miraculous recovery in far less time than normal and you will be moved to tears. I am eternally grateful to all who helped me…Cyrus
