Here he is at 6 weeks. He is 12oz. now. He is such a love.
I also have some bad news about him. It looks like his leg was dislocated at birth and we didn't find it until he started walking. I have an appointment with the vet on Thursday, I don't think the prognoses will be good. I'm sure if he needs surgery he won't be able to have it until he reaches a couple of pounds, that might be a year! I don't think they can do surgery on such a small puppy.
He seems happy enough and gets along pretty well with the twisted leg.
I was not able to download his photo, so I put a short video of him on the video forum.
