About FCE Talk
After our boy Flynn suffered a spinal stroke in 2024, FCE talk emerged from a deep compassion for dogs and their families affected by Fibrocartilaginous Embolism (FCE), also known as a canine spinal stroke. Experiencing the confusion and struggle of dog owners facing this diagnosis, we felt compelled to create a resource that provides clarity and support.
The initial days of FCE talk were fueled by personal experience and a commitment to educate others. We started with a small community of pet owners, sharing insights and resources, which gradually expanded into the comprehensive platform we have today.
Our commitment to quality resources and compassionate support has earned us the trust of our community.
Flynn’s FCE Story
When our boy Flynn suffered a spinal stroke (FCE), our world changed overnight. One moment, he was happily chasing balls around the yard, and the next, he couldn’t even stand. We had gone to the shops that morning and came home to find him sulking quietly in the front yard. At first, we thought he had hurt himself playing, but when we went to him, our hearts sank — Flynn couldn’t get up. He was paralysed on his right side.
We scooped him up and rushed him to the vet, terrified and desperate for answers. The outlook we were given wasn’t very positive. We were willing to do absolutely everything we could to help him recover, but the road ahead sounded uncertain and overwhelming.
