Find out how a paraplegic dog was able to walk again...

Blue is a twelve-year-old Great Dane/Blue Heeler mix with joyful eyes and a constant smile on his face. Just before Christmas 2015, Blue's rear legs totally quit supporting him. He had been to a veterinary neurologist for the rear leg weakness, however, nothing they tried was working. He had also developed an open wound which would not heal on one of his elbows...
