Well she did great and kissed everyone there. She weighs 1.8 and is 11 weeks
old now. The Vet was very impressed at how socialized she is and said believe
it or not he sees them at this age and they are already biting and growling. So
that made me feel like a proud mommy! Abbey has done such a good job with her
as her bio mom and breeder as she is very well balanced. And of course me, I
have spent so much time just loving on her and playing with her and my
grandkids have also helped so much.
His office staff lady told me of a puppy they just lost - the lady who had the
puppies let them go at 5 weeks old! Poor baby and she died of Parvo. She said
Parvo is going around real strong in our area so keep her away from Pet stores
and Pet parks - I knew that but some people might not. You do not want to take
your puppy to these places until he/she has had all of their shots and if they
are small and not real healthy I would say even longer! You would be surprised
at how many people do not get their puppy their shots.
I told Deanna most of this but I think it was in a private email if you are all
reading it again - I am sure its still enjoyable! LOL
Abbey also had her check up and he really feels strong that I should get her
knees fixed as she has luxtating (sp) patella - she is bow legged but she can
run fast and never seems to be in any pain. I am asking again for your advice,
should I just take her to the surgeon and see what he says? I have heard that
the surgery is often not successful and often has to be repeated and then they
get arthritis. I was just wondering if any of you have had the surgery done and
what was your outcome and would you do it again? I know the longer I put it off
the outcome can be compromised so PLEASE if you have any opinions please share
with me.
