Our senior German Shepherd Dog, Tika, turned 14 years young on January 3, 2021; she is now almost 14.5 years and our remaining days together are limited. Tika has had Degenerative Myelopathy (spinal disease resulting in full paralysis of her hind legs) for 2.5 years.
[UPDATE: On the morning of May 28/21, my Tika crossed the Rainbow Bridge; it was time to share her with the Angels. We had such beautiful days and memories leading up to Tika's departure. We have a very strong love and bond that can never be broken; my Angel will always be in the hearts of her Mommy and Daddy, guiding the way, until we meet again.]

In this video, you'll see that despite her old age and disability, Tika has still been able to enjoy a life full of love, attention, inclusion and interaction.
Degenerative Myelopathy is a heartwrenching disease, as it slowly takes away certain functions (mobility and continence), making life quite a challenge (but still enjoyable with the right aids). With this disease, it is usually the humans that make the decision to assist their pet to the Rainbow Bridge, and this time is coming very, very soon.

I hope that Tika’s story will help others with senior or mobility-challenged pets, and may result not only in an improvement of their pet’s quality of life but also in an extension of their pet's life. We were blessed with an additional two years together, much thanks to her Walkin' Wheels wheelchair.
