Wow when I first starting watching was thinking how cruel but then when I saw the end how wonderful. I do not think the dog knows that it is handicapped at all.

when i worked with the profoundly handicapped it is a fact no matter how hard it is that you see the package before you see the person..it takes getting to know the person and finding out what they are like..that takes effort..but once you do the package becomes less noticable...odd gestures are no longer even acknowledged by your mind..i think Faith has given the world a great gift by helping them "see" and i hope that this message spreads.

That is true Manchesters, dogs were not made to hop like that and that poor dog may be looking at some serious hip and back issues way to early in its life. A cart would be perfect for it. I never really thought of that, but it is true.

i am sure faith has a vet..and i will bet that she sees him regularly..i am sure they follow the advice their vet has. She may have a cart for everyday we do not know...as it is..she looks very happy and has had a chance at life that most people would not have given her in the first place.

Listening To A Vet
Quote:
I hate to even think about the grinding on those hips. Much more of that and a cart won't even be any good because the dog's rear will fail. It is the job of the pet owner to educate him/herself so they know what can and cannot be done. Just as it is the responsibility of humans to educate themselves about their health issues, so that they can take part in their own care and make intelligent suggestions, and realize when their doctor might be about to kill them, so it is the responisiblity of pet owners to take a proactive role in the treatment of their pets. Like for instance........ask the average vet about using Ivomec for heartworm. I rest my case, roflmbo. The only time I see a vet is when it is time for one of my old, old dogs to be put to sleep, or if one of them needs to be stitched up. I average seeing my vet about once every 6 or 7 years, lol.
