Sweet dog suddenly paralysed and in desperate need of doggy wheelchair after playing with toy A mum is raising funds for her dog's wheelchair after the pet was suddenly paralysed while playing with her new toy on Christmas day.
Kaydee Pain, 32, was playing a ball game with her Labrador-Patterdale cross, Luna, when she went to make a cup of tea - but to her horror, she returned to find the dog was unable to walk.
The single mum rushed Luna to the emergency vet where she was diagnosed with Intervertebral Disc Disease (IVDD) - a degenerative condition that damaged Luna's nerve impulses causing paralysis in her back legs.
Kaydee said Luna and her canine brother Teddy, both eight, are "happy dogs" and she saw no signs of Luna's disease.
Now, Kaydee is desperate to raise £6,500 for spinal surgery, therapy and a wheelchair for Luna.
