I used a braided rug so he could get some traction with his hind legs when he crawled around. After working with the puppy for a week or so the puppy started walking on his own. By the time he was 8 weeks old he was perfectly normal. Is your puppy over weight? I hope it is just a matter of him needing to exercise his legs so he can build up some muscles. |
That's exactally what I watched on Animal planet! Please try this.
There may be hope for him. Don't give up.
