Meet Our Sweet Little Paralysed Pups

Too many little ones come into the Centre with both back legs paralysed. This happens because of a dangerous habit they have of sleeping under parked rickshaws (or cars). The driver has a worse habit, that of never checking to see if any animal has taken shelter under the vehicle, looking for shade. The result is this. These are two of the most goodlooking pups in the pen and they were dragging their hind legs behind them when they came in.

But look what happens at IDA. The little white one (check out the picture below), has started using her hind legs again. Sometimes she even runs! This is the third successful case of curing our paralysed pups. Two others are running about outside the puppy pen now. We have started using homeopathic medicine for these cases, and it works very well. Here's hoping our handsome black pup (they don't come any handsomer!) will also regain the use of his back legs soon. In the last picture, you can see the fluffy white pup using her previously helpless back legs to stand up.

  1. This post absolutely made my day. Godspeed to a very handsome young black puppy regaining use of his hind legs!

    MUCH love and respect for all that you do at IDA.

  2. Paralysed cases used to be such a source of despair. Recently we invited a homeopathic practitioner to our Centre and it seems there are remedies for most type of ailments. They seem to work too - look at these pups - whatever most of the scientific community has to say about this type of med. The little black is not only handsome, he's full of spunk! Races around the pen bullying the other pups and playing with whatever he can find.
