An adorable puppy called Patrick was the unluckiest dog ever after he was struck down by a mystery ailment causing uncontrollable diarrhoea.
Poor Patrick was unable to properly digest any food because of an unusual autoimmune disease– leaving him dangerously-thin and deprived of nutrients.
But he did inherit the luck of the Irish with his super-loving owner Jael – who never gave up on him and went on a year-long crusade to get him back to health. Now, after dozens upon dozens of vets appointments and a medical case note history as long as a book, whippet Patrick is literally jumping for joy.
And Jael, along with her partner Keith Toland, is busy making sure brave wee Patrick has a St Paddy’s Day to remember after he battled through the crisis which left him perilously close to death.
