| WELCOME! So glad you found us! My Tiny Tina was so little when we got her at seven months, and she also had very thin hair on her head. So I bought a shampoo for strengthening her coat and bathed her once week with it, and didn't use topknots for a long time, and her hair eventually thickened up on her head as it grew out. Also, she was just over two pounds until she was two, then had a case of menengitis (luckily she made it through). But as a treatment she went on prednesone and got up to 4 lbs! She has thankfully lost a lot of the excess weight, but stayed at right around 3 to 3.5 lbs since then. So it took me a few years to fatten her up, but it happened, and she has kept the healthy weight on! Just ask your vet about how to help her gain weight healthily, and keep up the good work! You seem to be such a caring person to have a heart big enough for all those dogs!!! Oh, and Tina has a tiny stub too, but she walks with so much more attitude because it is docked! I'd never advocate docking tails, but I have surely grown to love it on her!
WELCOME WELCOME WELCOME!!! |
