I have to take her back in 2 weeks time to be re-evaluated. This is my first time as a breeder, and it will be my last, it has been heart breaking watching the little one struggle, but the vet has given me hope now, so with a bit of luck she will soon be walking. Thanks for all the kind words from everyone.

Glad to hear that she will be ok! Good wishes and prayers for you and the little one!
