Dolce

Dolce, who is very much not a cocker spaniel, joined Camp Cocker Rescue in the middle of a medical crisis! She had a disc ruptured in her back and was acutely paralyzed for several days. Her former owner had been desperately trying to find a rescue organization where she could relinquish Dolce! 

We immediately took Dolce to a specialty hospital through their emergency department. She was seen by a board certified neurologist, had an MRI and then taken into back surgery. All of this was done the same day of her relinquishment. 

When something is time-sensitive like a spinal cord issue, we do not slow walk it. Time was of the essence for Dolce to ever walk again! The surgery went well. A huge ruptured disc had been pressing on her spinal cord as well as disc “residue” that seemed to have been there for awhile. 

This soon-to-be 6 year old (her DOB is 11/24/19) is now getting the post-op care and physical therapy she needs. She’s progressing beautifully, and is walking so well since her back surgery!
