I was rushing him to the vet and he got up and started to run around the truck. He was back to normal except he was walking a little sideways. I took him to the vet and they told me it was a pinched nerve. Sent me home with meds (muscle relaxers). He was fine until July 29, when he jumped off my lap and broke his neck. This happened because of the AAI. He was born with this condition. It goes unsight unseen by many vets. Babybear's neck was broken and the vet told me that he had Liver Shunts.(misdiagnosis) I got a second opinion and found that his neck was broke and he had AAI. He had this the first time he went for the fall in May.
I don't want to scare you either. But please have him checked for this, because if it is AAI you can have it fixed. My babybear is living proof of that. His neck was broken so bad it was decappitated. He was lucky to be alive. He isn't walking yet but that was 11 weeks ago yesterday that this happend. So please I beg you have him checked ASAP. I don't want to see another mom go through what I went through with my little guy.

I think you may have meant to type something else where you typed decappitated? It would be impossible for any pup to be alive if they were decappitated... they would have to head.
I'm glad to hear that Pippa is doing better. I was worried!
