🎥 Meet Albert, our brave hero who suffered from an FCE (Fibrocartilaginous Embolism), a sudden spinal cord injury that can cause paralysis or weakness in dogs. 🐾

An FCE occurs when a piece of fibrocartilage blocks blood flow to the spinal cord. Symptoms can come on suddenly, like paralysis or weakness, often in the rear limbs. Diagnosis usually involves clinical signs and MRI scans.

While there's no specific cure for FCE, supportive care and rehabilitation, such as physical therapy and controlled exercise, are key to recovery. 🏋️‍♂️

Albert's journey reminds us of the importance of swift veterinary care and the power of rehabilitation. With proper care, many dogs can regain mobility and enjoy a good quality of life. 🌟

Let's cheer on Albert and all the amazing pets who overcome these challenges every day! 🐶💪
