i have a dog that got bit by a coon 4 months ago and came down with paralysis thought he was going to die for a while thank goodness he didn't however he's not the dog he used to be he has a hard time getting around i was just wondering if anyone eles has had this problem and if there is a chance he will ever completely come out of it

Every one I've had lasted no more than 2 weeks. Usually less.

give them time some come out of it fine

The only time I had any experience with it was with a cameron dog I had. I noticed that he was stove up and stiff and then one day he couldn't even get out of his house with out staggering and falling down. This all happened after a tough fight with a coon in a creek. I was pretty sure what it was and took him to the vet but he didn't make it. Now, if my dogs catch a coon on the ground or in a creek I try to get there and dispatch it as quick as possible. Coon paralysis is not pretty. I have heard of some dogs getting over it but they never were the same after that.

I had Went through it with a walker dog and he eventualy pulled through and it settled in his hips so he was slower and stiffer in his back legs its Definintly not fun to go through my vet said Coons arnt the only way to get it told they can get it by Eating mice
