The Vet. said to fill Just untill her feet barely left the bottom. If she stood still she could touch bottom, as soon as she moved she swam. I had to stop her every 2 min. or so she looked distressed. Then I would let go and as soon as she moved she was swimming again. I have to add that water has never been her favorite element. Once she was dry she seemed o-k just tired. Oh! Forgot to add in the update... she can now right her feet if turned under, She's just a little slow at it. Slower on one side than the other, but she is making progress!
