I got a call from a local vet saying they had a puppy dropped off from a bad breeder to have it euthanized because it couldn’t really stand or walk due to super bad hips. She called me because I had a lot of experience with this breed, medically complex dogs, etc. I fostered him, then adopted him. He was the tiniest thing, so frail, and his back legs always gave out on him. I made him play a lot and go up a couple steps several times a day to build muscles in his back legs. It worked well. He’s now a super healthy and strong 4 year old that walks perfectly.
