When members of The Mia Foundation heard about this adorable puppy named Mick who was born with Swimmer Puppy Syndrome, they knew they had to do something and they had to do it fast. Sadly, most puppies who are born with these health issue are euthanized due to the extensive and expensive treatments and therapies they have to endure.
For most dogs like Mick suffering from Swimmer Puppy Syndrome, they are born with weak rear muscles in their legs and they not only have severe difficulty standing but they appear to be paddling their legs, much like a turtle, in an attempt to stand.
The Mia Foundation seemed like the perfect fit for Mick since they were created to give animals born with birth defects a fighting chance. They knew, and as this video proves, with a little work and a lot of love, these animals can live a happy and healthy life. All they need is a chance!
