A rescue dog who suddenly lost her ability to walk is back to her best after being treated with red light therapy.When Mione Morrison, founder of Glendrick Roost, rescued RubyLu, a Rottweiler mix in 2017 aged seven, she had already been diagnosed with cancer, meaning that nobody wanted to rehome her.As a registered charity, Glendrick Roost is an animal sanctuary that offers a home for life for abused, abandoned and unwanted animals.The sanctuary, near Stirling and on the borders of Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park, is the perfect calm haven for animals who have had a tough start in life.Five years later in September 2022, RubyLu was living her best life, enjoying the company of other animals, especially going for walks in the stunning National Park until one day she collapsed after jumping off her usual park bench.Rushing her to a local vet, Doune-based Struthers & Scott Veterinary Practice, they were unable to diagnose this sudden paralysis.Following further investigation and neurology tests at the Royal (Dick) School of Veterinary Studies in Edinburgh, RubyLu was diagnosed with suspected acute Polyradiculoneuritis.
