if the bite is IN the ear - a vet visit is a good plan . On the ear flap ... obviously vet if you cannot treat it at home ..but otherwise clean and use betadine or similar ...

perfect

These socks look worth a try ... no problems with rubbing feet at least

*melts* It's lovely to see what a good family they are - Big sister getting baby practice ..Enzi just exploring/annoying/experiencing :D wonderful photos as always ..

nice to hear . I guess with already - compromised mobility .. things may have a greater effect . Pickles, you're a worry!

..and some Rescue Remedy Hot wheat bag on her neck/shoulder as well, maybe ? ..Hope you both get some sleep ....Just thought again of the 'knuckling' of the front ... keep an eye on that .. Don dog damaged his radial nerve early on by hitting the point of his shoulder on something .. he was quite sore for a while ... but was very lucky . His L front foot knuckles over when he's tired /been digging a lot ... he is lucky he can still gallop and dig!

Pickles is in the best hands

Fingers crossed it is 'just a tweak ' somewhere ...

You too ?

What are you feeding? How do you feed? Where do you feed? What do you do when she won't eat? How old is the pup ?

bugga. poor Pickles , being so uncomfortable ..it does sound like a pain/stress response, doesn't it ? is there anything happening re: weird sounds anywhere? Thunder/building/....anything different? has she had access to anything weird she may have tasted ? No louder tummy rumbles ? Gums redder or paler than usual ? Sorry .. no real help - just know thoughts are sent ... Both of you just breathe.... nice & slow ....

@Amber Griffin I've found a couple of Crate Training discussions for you ... and I will also gently remind you , that a teeny fluffball has all the instincts/behaviours/way of thinking of other dogs - what looks 'cute' in a pup, may just be annoying/dangerous in a large dog - same behaviour- different way of us looking at it .Even tho she's physically manageable - She still needs your guidance and boundaries and education LINK LINK

;) looks like a 4WD two Wheeler

The best idea is to feed what the breeder is feeding feed that for a few days to help avoid tummy upsets ..then gradually introduce your new food . As for Crate TRAINING ..it can be the BEST idea ever . It's not just "sticking pup in crate" and leaving them there all day ..it is a whole training thing . It is giving the pup/dog somewhere of their own ..it's where they will be sleeping with all their comfy stuff ..it's where they get their special treats & toys ...& where they can be safe when it's not ideal they be wandering/under your feet /ill .

Unless you see the scores, and understand how they work , there is no way you KNOW , sorry . The breeders told you there are no problems ? Fine . Ask them to SHOW you the scores from Mum and Dad. This might help you understand , so you can speak with the breeder . Perhaps this is not the right puppy for you ? This info comes from HERE I do hope you can find a Vet /mentor who will advise and support you . This a very important issue , and there is a LOT to consider before letting someone start chopping away at your puppy. .

@melzawelza !!!!!!!!!! Thanks for telling us what can happen .

Uncle Troy will be cross.....

@Roova Lovely @Scottsmum That is so pretty. I will get there one day ......

So puppy is 9 weeks, and you've had her for 2 ?

Gosh - that little leg does look as though there's some sort of displacement .... I agree with TSD ..Xray or second opinion is a good idea.

YES!! buy yourself a large bottle of F10 ... and do bedding/shoes/patches where pup has vomited/pooed ...your clothes ..car seats etc ... Hope she continues to be bright, and is well again soon.

Gosh!! treating such a baby at home !! being so young , I suggest she goes back to the vet - or to another vet . Things can change very quickly with parvo

K9 Angel - hello 6 years - wow .... It probably seems both like yesterday , and a lifetime ago for you .. Hope all is well with your family ..and that you are still enjoying making lovely things .

Puppies are wonderful - also a LOT of work . These links might help you : I have not used these ... but find that input from many sources can help with making your own plan > Just remember - your pup is very much a BABY ..and will still be locked in to the habits of where she grew up . Much thought, time and patience will be need for the next 12 mths (and beyond ;) ) LINK LINK LINK LINK LINK

Congratulations on the Full House!!! ;) Looking forward to photos at some stage
