It can be amazing just how much a pup can make you reevaluate your life. This Mom named Marissa had what was a pretty normal relationship with her pup Dachshund, Pandora, until something horrible happened – Pandora was affected by an intervertebral disc disease.
Anything that affects the spine would really be scary for just about anyone, but thanks to the anatomy of their backs, Dachshund pups are especially vulnerable. The end result? Pandora’s back legs were paralyzed, and there was no way to heal them.
At first, Mom thought that was it – that this was the end. There was no possible way for Pandora to recover from this. But she persevered anyway, putting her precious pooch through surgery and tons of expensive therapies to help her pup walk again. She even got Pandora a wheelchair!
But that’s not all she did. She decided she really ought to spend time with her pup, and now one of the things she does on a regular basis is have dinner together with Pandora!
