  1. God you sweet girl for taking him in and giving him a forever home. I’m a pug lover and it is very sad. but you make him so happy and I’m sure he does you also.

  2. My 9 year old Pug fell off of the side of a set of steps and broke her back leaving her paralyzed. This was almost 4 years ago. She had a back surgery to remove the swelling and scar tissue and correct her spine. She spent the following 12 weeks dragging her back legs just like the dog from this story. We followed up with 8 weeks of swim therapy and do that generally every winter but she is walking with all four legs and has been since about 4 months after her back surgery. It’s amazing what these adorable little guys can do!

  3. This happened to my pug, Taz! I spent $5,500 to have the spinal surgery done in him. He walks and runs just fine now. He still has a lag in his back legs, but, at least he walks now. God bless pepe and his journey.
