I wish you infinite love, laughter, joy, and health with her. I'm so sorry this breeder lied to you. If she sold her as a breeder, I would be especially unhappy. She is too tiny to be bred. It is unlikely she will reach five pounds, the smallest weight to breed, and I also wouldn't want to breed dogs with LP. I know they say it's acceptable for very low grade, but but you don't want to pass along LP. If she needs surgery, it can be fixed, and Nami will lead a perfectly normal life. I probably would seek the advice of a board certified orthopedic surgeon. The surgery is expensive, and hopefully your breeder will help. I wouldn't count on it, however with her dishonesty, particularly since she came from abroad which makes litigation too do.
If you can get her to play, I would try that. My little girl came from Canada when she was three years old, and I thought she was very tired from her two day trip to me, first a six hour trip to my dear friend's house with her four dogs, and then another four hours when my friend brought Katie to me. After my friend left with two of her dogs a day later, Katie almost seemed depressed, but I thought that wouldn't be unusual since she left her loving home. I took her outside to play ball, and she came alive. Katie is such a happy little girl, and Nami will be too. |
