Serious health problems
According to Daily Mail , Moose was born with parts of his brain missing. He also suffers from a myriad of health conditions, including seasonal allergies causing the tear ducts in his eyelid to protrude.
His owner explained that the dog also has pain attacks. “ They affect her body and her brain, and have left her whole body to contract and make her mouth foam. Although he is taking specific treatment to treat this ailment, Moose continues to have seizures from time to time. These can sometimes last for hours.
