Not knuckling over it's rickets


Recommended Posts

When my pup was 6 weeks I took him to the vet but not my usual vet who said he was knuckling over but I wanted a second opinion and went to my usual vet who is great he said my pup has rickets , even though I've been feeding him right , the vet said if the pup was fed just raw meat when weaned it could have caused this :cray: he gave me some collo cal d liquid calcium to give him and I'm going back to the vet in 9 - 10 days

 

Has anyone had a pup that has rickets and came good , I'm worried about my pup just hope he will be ok , he's only 10 weeks .

 

Atb thanks JD :thumbs:
