Also known as Acute Polyradiculoneuritis. This is a canine neurological disorder caused by exposure to certain contaminants contained in the feces, saliva, urine and blood of many small animals, such as racoons, possums and skunks.

The 'agent' then sets off an overreaction of the immune system, which leads to paralysis beginning in the back legs and moving forward, eventually leading to heart attacks and pulmonary failure. Some dogs will continue to eat and drink for a while, some will not.

The treatment for this disease is life support until the worst passes, followed by gradually increasing physical therapy. Once infected, the dog will always be at a greatly increased risk of contracting it again, but it can be survived with proper treatment.

Some symptoms to watch for are:
- Weakness starting in the hind legs and progressing to all legs
- Weak bark
- Development of severe weakness
- Total inability to stand
- Shallow breaths or difficulty breathing
- Stiff or rubbery back legs
- Loss of interest in food and/or water
- General lethargy
- Resistance to attempts to walk the dog
- Loss of bowel and/or bladder control
- Fluid in the lungs
- Heart attack
If your dog exhibits any of these symptoms, be sure to ask your vet about coondog paralysis, also known as acute polyradiculoneuritis - it could save your dog's life.

See specialty pet websites for details, or do a web search.

"Man, my vet told me my dog was just old, but then I found out about coondog paralysis, and he had all the symptoms. If I had known, they could have saved my dog. I never should have let him poke his nose in that hole under the bush."

When, after turning on pandora internet radio to a station you weren't intending to listen too or wanting to turn off pandora ,you can't because of the amazing and epic selection of songs that appear one after another on the station
Usually, there's amazing music selection that is unparalleled to the music you hear when you actually want to listen to the station, making it the opposite of pandorap, which is when u are stuck listening to a song you hate ,since you skip all the crappy tracks on a station.
After work, I had "I want hold your hand " stuck in my head so I wanted to listen to the Beatles station. But, after turning on pandora to my pop radio and hearing it play Gangham Style,, Sexy and I Know It , Moves like Jagger, and Die Young, i had pandora paralysis and couldn't bare to change the station or turn off the radio, so I listen to pop music station until 12:00 am.
