Info from Licensor: "Due to old age, arthritis, hip dysplasia, and a large mass that interferes with her gait and balance, 14-year-old Izzy lost the use of her hind legs about 4 months ago. In order for her to move, someone has to pick her up using a strap, which is wrapped around her waist. Although she can move her front legs, her back legs just drag... but when she got into the pool, her hind legs miraculously worked again and she was able to swim freely. Despite her hind legs failing her, on land, at least, Izzy is the world’s happiest dog. She is full of nothing but rainbows and sunshine, love and joy."
