Just to update every one......

Prada diagnosis was confirmed and she does have Legg Calve Pertheses disease and desperately needs surgery. I have raised $1000 so far towards her hopefully soon to be surgery. She had more X-rays done on Thursday and compared to the ones she took a few months ago at PetSmart, I can see why they were not sure. The more recent ones look like they are from a total diff puppy. The 1st ones look normal. But these new ones are awful. She has NO muscle mass left in her affected leg and most of the femur ball is gone. The most common surgery FHO can't be done. I'm going Monday for a consultation with another surgeon to see what type of surgery will be done. If they have to put in a artificial femur ball I want be able to afford it. So please pray and keep your fingers crossed.

Special thanks to those who have been sending private msgs to me on the concerns of Miss Prada.
Prada is just as energetic ass the day I got her. She hasn't missed a beat.
