Just wanted to update everyone:
Offsite vet appointment is in the works for next week, apparently imaging person is out the rest of this week. I will hope for decent news, or at least a KNOWN prognosis- treatable in some way to any degree would be awesome.
She got a ferret sweatshirt today! Fits the best out of anything we've found thus far.
Talked to our main "dog intake" person today and the plan is for all pups to stay until the new year, so that they can be near 12 weeks when adopted as I know that is really recommended for small breeds. I am getting a bit exhausted but will have to tough it out for the well being of everyone Mom has not been HW tested yet... so prayers that she tests negative and will be able to be spayed along with the other two pups after the new year. Right now the plan is for little bit to just stay put- basically, we are hoping that the offsite appointment will let us know what the course of action should be with her. If she will be a huge anesthesia risk (dependent on the actual defect) then she will not ever be spayed and therefore will not ever be adopted out, and will be in what we call "perma foster" for the remainder of her life. If she can be spayed, we will look into when would be the best time to do it and it will likely be a few months before that happens.
Thank you to everyone for your help- any comments or well wishes are appreciated! |
