A PARALYSED dog has been saved from being put down by a Farnham animal chiropractor.

Bruno, a mini dachshund, was left paralysed for no known reason, having collapsed on his back legs in front of his owner, Trudy Thompson.

Trudy had started her daily routine on September 10 by going for a walk with her four dogs and was then being entertained by Bruno dancing around her bedroom, when he suddenly collapsed without warning.

"He went from being a fit and healthy chap to being unable to walk," said Trudy.

"He didn't have an accident, didn't yelp in pain, his back legs just suddenly crumpled underneath him and he looked up at me, shaking all over, with total panic in his eyes."
