They said it may be a few weeks, but that all depends on what's causing it. Thanks for the info on the harnesses! I've been using that pink one to help guide her, but I'm going to look into those now. They would be perfect

The initial diagnosis was idiopathic vestibular syndrome. Basically something is affecting her balance and they don't know what it is It could be anything from an inner ear infection to a stroke to a tumor. The good news is that most dogs are very resiliant will self-regulate and regain most of their motor skills within a few weeks. If not, she may need to go back for an MRI($$$$) For now, she just needs lots of extra time and TLC. I have to carry her down the stairs and keep her from bumping into things and injuring herself, but she's still a happy pup.

My friend was remarking to me on the way in that she looked a bit like a drunk person. I supposed that makes sense She stumbles everywhere, is beligerant at times - woofing and carrying on, and overly affectionate to anyone she meets at others. So please say a few prayers that Evie be able to overcome her alcohol addiction ray: You can't change what you don't acknowledge, puppy
And thanks Carlos, I needed that
