Any number of things can cause paralysis in a dog’s back legs — a spinal chord injury, tumors, orthopedic disease, toxins, degenerative myelopathy (similar in many ways to ALS), etc., for example — but in Lester’s case, he’s in a “wheelchair” because he has hip dysplasia.

Googling phrases like “canine paralysis rear legs”, “dog paralysis of hind legs” and “conditions that cause canine paralysis hind legs”, etc., should be able to help you find the name of the condition that you’re looking for.
Same here. I really need to lose an extra 10-15 unwanted lbs., but not at the cost of wasting away and dying from some terrible disease — like cancer — in order to do it.
I certainly hope not. But peer pressure is strong — especially among girls this age who want nothing more than to “fit in” and be accepted by their so-called “friends” — so you just never know. ¯\ ̲㋡ ̲/¯
I’m with Cathy on this one: weight loss is weight loss. Whatever makes you feel better about yourself and gives you the encouragement you need to keep pushing forward on the right pathway to good health and fitness is a winner in my book. I speak from experience when I say there are very few things in the world that can do this better than putting on a favorite article of clothing that once was tight ….. but now is not! ⧹(⦁ᴗ⦁)⧸

Hello and Happy Wednesday, fellow “Cathy” fans. Hope you all had a really great day! ♥
Of course they are! They’re just a couple of jealous little “Mean Girls” because Daphne has a boyfriend that she cares about and who cares about her while they (most likely) don’t, so the only way to fix that “unfairness” is by breaking them up so that she’s just as miserable and alone as they are! :-(
