You were very lucky with your first, but some dogs are tiny because of genetics, others are tiny because something went a little wrong. I think it would be a mistake to just trivialize this as a just "snotty nose." I mean, she's still so young, and very vulnerable. Best of luck, I'm praying for you and Mia.
Thanks Nancy. We are getting hit with a bad snow storm, but I do have an appointment with the vet Thursday morning and if she shows signs of needing to go earlier I'll get her to an emergency vet. I'm just so thankful at this time that she is running and playing and eating, somthing she had not done since we got her. And, what made it hard is because I didn't know what her norm was, it's hard to tell if they aren't playing or eating too much if it's just their demenor or if it's because they are sick. She's night and day the past two days. Thanks again. Elaine
