Not An Easy Work

There is something that we can all agree on when we talk about raising animals. It takes a lot of hard work and persistence to bring up a healthy pet. And so you can just imagine the kind of work you would need to put up if you want to look after a handicapped animal. You could even say it would be double the burden. Taking care of a pet with disabilities would be a tough job.

There are so much time and patience needed to properly bring up a young animal. It would have been difficult for Lou to handle Nubby all alone. But it was lucky as Lou had her husband, Mark who equally adored the puppy.

A Grain Of Hope

Lou and Mark have always shared a love for animals. So when they took in the disable puppy, they knew exactly what to do with him. The couple initiated the caring by bottle-feeding the little puppy as it was the only way to feed Nubby without getting them into his lungs and resulting in an aspiration pneumonia.

He thrived! His eyes opened, his ears developed, he found his sounds, smells, and voice,” Lou revealed as she spoke about their precious disabled pup.
