my puppy is 3 1/2 months today and she weighs about that much. i got her when she was 8 weeks and very tiny. she has only grown a very little amount since then. i duno, before i got her i really wanted a smaller dog 3 pounds or so.. and everyone was like.. youll jsut be terrified all the time that you'll step on her and kill her or that shell jump off something high.. and they were right. i worry ALL THE TIME that she will hurt herself, jump off of something. ive had to put bells on her so i can hear where she is in the house.
i ahd the vet do some blood work on ehr when i got her so she is perfectly healthy and happy and i really adore her, but I definetly understand the appeal of wanting a slightly bigger dog that you dont have to worry about as much. i have to keep this syrup and a syringe in the medicine cabinet for her incase her blood sugar gets too low and she has a seizure. you have to make sure they eat enough daily so this wont happen, but my vet gave it to me just incase.. also, i know this isnt big but.. it is VERY HARD to find clothes that fit her.. and i love to dress her up. ive had to safety pin all her clothes to make them smaller so they at least kinda fit, and im buying the smallest clothes out there that are available (boy do i need to learn how to sew!)
oh and, god forbid i bring her with me to show her the world because i dont want to leave her whining in the house.. you just dont get to do anything.. people stop and want to hold her etc and sometimes you just wanna get your stuff done without being bothered. also, i really dont trust other people to hold her. I imagine a fall from their arms and it horrifies me |
