Cooper is not an ordinary dog. Due to his weirdly shrunk body, he caught people’s attention on the internet.
Cooper has a rare short spine syndrome (SSS), which involves the screwing and corkscrewing of his spine. As a result, Cooper has no neck, so to look behind him, he has to turn around.
Despite his constrained mobility or inability to walk on hard surfaces or other issues that come with this syndrome, Cooper is happy, now the only dog in the family. His foster mom, or as he calls her, “Ma”, continues to share Cooper’s life updates on Facebook, spreading awareness of this rare condition and giving hope to other dogs like him.
