Hoping & praying Tuffy will be alright.
We haven't had an xray as the vet claims it's not neccessary BUT I'm looking for a new vet so that when we go home we can get a 2nd opinion.
I've read everything I can find on CT here & through web searches.
He doesn't eat any more than what "normal" Yorkie pups do (about 3/4 cup a day) & we have him on a mix of Blue & Royal Canin puppy. I'd read somewhere that keeping them cool helps & I do this as well because I noticed when we're in snowy/cooler climates it seems better.
