About Ninja

Mastiff / Lab
Age: Puppy
Sex: Male

[Read About Natural Incontinence Care] Rehoming a Wheel Chair Puppy Ninja presented to regular Veterinarian in the middle of the night on November 1 2017 with paralysis. Veterinarian highly suspected Coon Hound Paralysis. With lots of efforts and continued on going treatment Ninja has improved to the point of now only having hind limb paralysis with loss of urine and stool control. Ninja had been raised with a young child and another dog. He is currently living with another dog and cat. He really wants to chase the cat (not sure if that is play or more). His face lights up when he even hears children's voices now that he does not live with any. Current care giver tries to arrange weekly play dates with children since it brings Ninja such joy. Ninja has his own Wheel Chair thanks to Pets with Disabilities. Ninja currently being treated with acupuncture weekly and seeing a chiropractor to gain as much function as possible. We have seen tiny spurts of improvement but prognosis of getting function in his hind end is minimal. Ninja has such a great spirit, love for life and will to live. He is not in any pain, so if his function doesn't return, he seems content in his wheel chair. He is still a puppy so willing to learn to manage life differently and bonds quickly.
