Neo, a 10-year-old community dog, was brought to us when he suddenly lost the ability to use his hind legs. He was in visible pain and couldn’t stand or walk properly.
On examination, our doctors found that although his reflexes were normal, he couldn’t bear weight on his back legs. X-rays and a CT scan revealed the real issue — severe nerve compression in the lower spine (L7–S1 region).
To relieve the pressure and help him walk again, our surgical team performed a spinal decompression surgery and stabilized his spine using advanced pedicle screw fixation — a precise and delicate procedure often used in complex spinal cases.
Just two days after surgery, Neo amazed everyone by starting to put weight on his hind legs again! With physiotherapy, nutritional support, and continuous care, he regained his strength and eventually achieved full, pain-free mobility.
Neo’s story reminds us how timely surgical intervention and dedicated rehabilitation can bring incredible transformation — even for a senior stray dog who had almost lost all hope.
