Paralyzed dog walks!

Center for Veterinary Pain Management and Rehabilitation -------- After many years of practicing veterinary medicine and in the last 10 years pain management and rehabilitation I continue to be amazed at the miracles we are blessed by being part of. Patriot is one of those very special patients that everyone at the clinic will remember forever. At the beginning of September 2010 Patriot became a quadriplegic following a cervical spinal cord injury. In mid-October we had the opportunity to begin working with Patriot. Kari and her assistants have spent many hours patiently working with him and now he is walking! Dr. Rick Wall

How long was it from being completely prone to being able to eat in sternal recumbancy? I ask because my dog is currently suffering from a suspected slipped/ruptured disc which we are having to manage conservatively with rest and steroids. He has been in lateral recumbancy for 4 days now and can just move his head and legs, without the ability to right himself.
