Cooper has had a major set back. He was ready to meet a potential new family and had gone for a ride to the lake this past weekend. When he tried to get out of the car his back leg would not work. So far Cooper has had bloodwork and x rays. Everything looks normal. There are no muscle tears either. At this point it is believed he may have a blood clot, pinched nerve or a back issue. We are sending him to a specialist to figure how what could have happened to cause his sudden loss of use in his leg. He may need an MRI or CT scan
This morning his foster home reported he seemed to be able to move the leg a small bit which is improvement. The video shows how he currently has to get around. He is not in any pain but is confused as to why he can't get his leg to do what it would normally do.
