Just like humans, dogs can have a variety of health problems. Although less common, neurological disorders can make life difficult for both dogs and their owners. But the fainting dog in today’s story proved that one should always view life as a glass half full rather than half empty.

That’s the only way to live your life with a smile on your face and make others smile. This is how he lived until the end.

The duck was his biggest weakness

When Emma and her family adopted an 11-month-old Cocker Spaniel, they had no idea how special they would become.

They soon learned that Peter, as they were called, had a special disease that caused him to pass out if he got too excited. He simply froze and collapsed during the episode, which lasted several minutes.

This can happen at the most unexpected moments, for example, when moving from a lawn to a concrete surface.

Ducks were his biggest weakness. When he spotted a duck even from a distance, he immediately got so excited that he rolled on the ground. Emma and her family are worried about all this at first, but soon realize that petrified Pete is living his best life on his own terms.

He lived his life with a smile

Despite his condition, he was still full of life and love, spreading joy wherever he went. Still, they wanted to know what exactly was wrong and what caused Peter to act this way.

“Peters condition? We don’t know at the moment,” Emma said for WeLoveAnimals,” His vet has mentioned cataplexy, narcolepsy, etc., but most probably the fainting goat syndrome.”

However, Emma said the vet assured her that Peter was not in pain and would survive easily despite his condition. And in fact Pierre lived like this. He was a playful puppy who loved cuddling with his parents and loved children.

There were also animals that did not excite him so much, which would not cause him to faint, and he constantly liked to be near them. Cats were his dearest creatures. 

“But cats were not so impressed,” Emma said with a laugh. 

Although he wasn’t so fond of cats, everyone else loved him very much and it wasn’t hard to see why.

Peter was a very resilient dog. “When he does fall over, it doesn’t seem to bother him like the tail still wagging and he’s still living his life. He just flops back over, gets back up, and carries on running around like nothing ever happened.”

It was a lifestyle that simply delighted people.

He Remained Himself Until The End

“A very sad post I hoped I’d never have to make.” read the beginning of the saddest post that Emma had to write on her Instagram profile in a lifetime. 

Unfortunately, their Peter suffered an eternal faint at the end. I had to cross the rainbow bridge at the age of two and a half. But this brave boy remained happy, loving and joyful to the end.

Every time he fell, he courageously got back up and continued, not allowing anyone or anything to ruin his happiness and positive energy. After all, he taught us all to fight through life and remain ourselves despite all difficulties.
