OH Yorkie!!! I am so so sorry about your furry friend. It is so hard when our beloved pets begin to wear down. They are truly a part of us. We have a teacup poodle that is about the same age as your Yorkie. She has a enlarged heart, and has started wheezing almost constantly from fluid build up.We know each day is a gift when we have her with us.... I am praying for you today. I would try the splints.
Pollywog, your sweet picture brought tears. Thank you so much for your support. I will keep your little teacup poodle in my prayers.............and you are so right. We must appreciate every moment we have with our furry kids.
