    Thats all I ment... I'm well aware that worms are no good.. Especially a belly full of them!


    Ok haha! I FIGURED it was a misunderstanding. :P

    Click on go advanced, and then click on the paper clip icon, and than another box pops open where you can upload the pics. Kind of like Facebook.

    Ih yes that belly does look like it's got some worms in it :(

    Emily suggested some good points, ear infection. Ear mites?

    She is SO cute! Interesting name choice, any particular reason Jezzibell?

    Make sure to get her into some sort of puppy socialization classes, and a manners class wouldn't hurt either. Dogs that leave the pack too early, are more prone to aggression issues.

    first of all I don't know why you have her if you have no money? I would take her to the vet and get her checked out and make sure she is all right and give her as much care as possible

    She said "i dont have alot of money for the vet BUT will if it means her be better"
    She did not say she had NO money, she was just saying that she didn't want to spend it unless she had to.

    Hi twinkie, she didn't say she didn't have ANY money, she said she didn't have a lot. But would take the pup to the vet if need be. And she has stated that she will be taking the pup to the vet, but wanted to get some ideas of what it could be.
