Marsha,
Chris and I have an agreement that, no matter how much we work with the pups, we can't get emotionally attached. We have one dog at home (Gabby aka mommy), and don't need another, especially if there are projected vet bills, as I'm sure there will be in Oscar's case.
All the pups belong to the breeder so, harsh as it may sound, Oscar is her problem. If he survives, I suspect she'll do the same as she did when a prior pup couldn't walk - she asked us if we could find a home for a free puppy. When we showed her that he was now able to walk and run (following adjustment by our chiropractor friends), the "free" pup was up for sale.
