The breeder says it does not bother her, and sometimes they heal over on their own over time, but sometimes they need surgical repair. I am really reserved over purchasing a pup that I know may need surgery right off the bat, but she is soo cute, that my heart is torn. Any thoughts on this?
My Pebbles was 8weeks and 2lbs. when she had her inguinal hernia fixed.

She was and is just fine now she is 10 mo. You would never

know anything was wrong. You can't even see the scar. Don't let this

keep you from getting her if you really want her. Good Luck
