We just bought a 3 month old GSD 4 days ago and she only weighed 3.6 pounds when I took her to the vet. We have been feeding her puppy food for large breeds to try to get her at a healthier weight. I took her 3 days later to vet and she weighed 3.8 pounds. Her right leg is a little bent, had X-rays and nothing wrong there, vet says she has no muscle to hold her weight so that's why that is happening. We are just concerned that she is so tiny for her age. Has anyone had a problem like this or any suggestions?
Wow! Look at her! She looks great. Glad she ended up with you. You may want to post another thread in health section, I'm sure someone will have have some suggestions for you.
I too had to look the whole thread. What an amazing and encouraging story of love and care. Thanks for that, though the story has not ended yet. This thread needs to be redirected to anyone considering purchasing from a Pet Store
Just out of curiosity, how much does she weight now?
I just wanted to share another picture of her now. Even though she was diagnosed with hip dysphasia at the age of 7 months, I have been giving her supplements and exercise and you can't even tell from this picture that she has it!
Such a nice thread to see she thrived and found a great home.
