I've taken her to many vets, even to Gainesville to a specialist and have spent over 6 thousand dollars but there's nothing they can do to fix it. She loves to get out and about so I bought a stroller for her so that I don't put any unnecessary stress on her organs walking her. She's had 7 downfalls in the past 71 weeks and each time I fear omg, this is it, I'm going to lose her, but tada.....she's one tough little girl and bounces right back....she isn't ready to leave me yet. If you saw her you'd think nothing is wrong...she plays, eats, drinks, pees, and poops....she's one happy little girl. She'll let me know when it's time but in the mean time, I'm gonna keep on doing what I'm doing. Anyway, my point is if you see someone pushing their dog around in a stroller, please don't make any assumptions........You just never know.

She is blessed to have such a caring person as you. I hope she continues to do well.
