This hard enamel pin is dedicated to the memory of Cherry Cola, who courageously fought Degenerative Myelopathy (DM) for four years before crossing the rainbow bridge. Cherry is helping to spread awareness of this terrible disease through this pin. To learn more about Cherry, please join her FB group called Cherry Cola Disabled Dog Network, a group for disabled dogs of all breeds/ages/disabilities and their owners. There you will find:
Links, advice and support for Disabled Dogs.
Product reviews and links to everything from carts, strollers, diapers and all things related.
Also a Place to celebrate our Fur-Babies. Stories, pictures and videos sharing life with a Dog with special needs.
We are not a Rescue but we will post disabled Rescue Dogs in need of Homes from time to time.
This Group is set up for its namesake, my twelve year old German Shepherd Cherry Cola, who had been living with Degenerative Myelopathy for over four years. She sadly passed away 31 May 2019.
Continuing her legacy with our newest disabled family member Zelda! Zelda is paralysed due to a herniated disc that she has had operated on. She is a Romanian Rescue and we're hoping to rehabilitate her <3 Join us on our journey!
Cherry is the largest #SHADEOUTDM pin we've created to date, at a little over 2 inches long. She comes with silver plating and two red rubber star backings.
What is DM? DM stands for Degenerative Myelopathy, which would be the canine version of ALS/LouGehrig's Disease. It affects over 100 dog breeds and is often misunderstood and misdiagnosed. Many people are unaware of this non-curable disease, so we want to spread awareness, as it CAN be prevented by genetic testing prior to breeding & making well educated decisions.
