Oh! I am so sorry about this.
I am sure this breeder 'rescue' dogs are all his own dogs. The older females were surely breeders.
Sometimes a tiny weak one will survive like this little guy. But obviously he is hanging on dispite his circumstances.
I can only be hopeful that this is not the diagnosis. I say this because I helped a breeder, by taking a tiny yorkie that she DID very much love but couldn't care for any longer. I basically brought her home to let her die. We all were sure she would only last a month at best.
They had thought she had liver shunt but she didn't. She could take maybe a step or two then fall. Have little 'jerks' and twist strangly. After all the tests (the breeder did this during the 8 mos she had her). Then after x-rays they determined it was her cerebreal area of her brain that was damaged either in the womb or during birth. Basically, she has cerebrial palsy. She was 3 in June!! She is my miracle baby. She walks funny, slowly, and is fragile. She is silly and squeeks instead of barks but thinks she is a big dog. She is healthy and all I can say is a blessing in my life. She pees on a pad, weighed 1.2 lbs when I got her and is 1.8 now!
