He may have lost the use of his rear legs in February but he
never lost his joy and love of life.
Harold is in love. He's in love with the women of Integrative Pet
Care. He may have lost the use of his rear legs in February but he
never lost his joy and love of life.
Thanks to the compassionate care,
incredible patience and amazing skills of the staff at IPC, he is
slowly recovering from emergency back surgery that removed a ruptured
disc. And though his surgeon doubts it, Harold may eventually walk
again through rehabilitation therapy provide at Integrative Pet Care.
But he doesn't go to IPC for therapy; he goes to play... and to kiss
the girls who give him peanut butter and massages. From the moment her
arrives and gets into his wheels in front of IPC, he is happy and
excited. He bursts into the lobby at IPC eager to greet his friends.
He's a terror toddling around in his wheels and clearly happy to be
alive.
Without IPC, he probably wouldn't be alive. Without IPC, I wouldn't
have been able to save Harold. I wouldn't have known how to care for
him. When I was most discouraged, IPC provided encouragement and moral
support and gave me hope.
IPC provided training so I could exercise and treat Harold at home
using e-stim on six different muscles. Through IPC we acquired Harold's
wheels that allow him to run wild in the park as well as around IPC.
And through IPC we learned how to use orthotics; braces and flippers
and carpal wraps that are helping Harold to learn how to walk again.
Harold is in love with Integrative Pet Care and so am I.
