Thank you. I'd definitely thought of worms, especially in the late co-habitation of other dogs and pups. I must say that after this her fourth day with us the ribs are feeling less prevalent. We are feeding her up and I'll also take a stool sample for the Vet. Her life here is quieter and more sedentary, which seems to suit her just fine. I'll keep progress posted on this thread.
