His prognosis was poor. He was paralyzed. Several specialists worked with him and found heart disease, a malignant cancerous mass next to his heart, and paralysis. When Joey first came to Dogwood, his future was grim so we started him on nutritional therapy (veterinary-specific diets), herbal supplements, and routine acupuncture treatments. Joey’s owner gave a tremendous amount of optimism and support in his care.
It’s now a year and half later and Joey is celebrating his monumental 15th birthday! He’s feeling good, paralysis is gone, and he’s doing as well as an old guy can. Last week, he came in for his monthly acupuncture treatment and x-rays to monitor cancer growth. The results came back today and show no signs of cancer progression!
Happy Birthday to you, Joey! You simply are amazing!
