Thanks for the information and the positive thinking. The vet has said that it will not get worse but it will more than likely never get any better either because of the degree that these pups have CP. I'm only trying to think ahead and trying to make these pups as independant as possible.

If there is anyone who is interested in donating to the Savanna & Bella walking wheels fund please email me and I'll send you the links for the chipin.com fund website. I also have accounts open with Sun Trust Bank and paypal. Lets help these girls get their walking wheels.

Thanks!
