I had to laugh at this poll. My dog Scooby is the smallest but the heaviest of my dogs! (35 lbs) He is a powerhouse!
However, when he had his stroke he went paralyzed on his ENTIRE Right side! The vet told me that he would tend to walk to the right almost in a circle.
I worked very hard to rehabiliated Scooby. We would walk to the mailbox which was only 2 streets from my house. The first few weeks we would get to the mailbox but he couldn't make it back! He would stop and not move until I picked him up.
I was kind of embarrassed because I had to walk in front of ALL my neighbors carrying my dog, a handful of mail, and the other dog on a leash! Everyone knew I spoiled my dogs rotten but to be seen in public actually carrying my dog was too much!
