Yikes, that doesn't sound good for my puppy.  I hope she will be ok....  I thought the parents were good dogs, but then what do I know---not much I'm afraid.  Anyway, is there anything I should be looking for as she develops?  She seems strong and is growing at a moderate rate, not too fast and not too slow.  We will not be breeding her so at least there's that.  However, I sure hope she will be a great dog and not have health problems.  Her temperament is certainly excellent and she is very smart.  She eats with my little dogs, shares bowls--no food agression at all. Also has learned how to play gently with the little dogs and the cats.  She is a quick learner about not chasing the chickens and has already learned to herd the goats into the pasture.  She also helps with farm chores, so cute.  I give her a bucket of water (not full, just a litte) and she carries the bucket by the handle to the pasture.  I tell her she is helping feed the goats.  She loves meeting people, shows no signs of agression or apprehension.  Just this afternoon a man stopped by with his little grandson and asked to see the goats.  The puppy gave them a farm tour all the while stopping and waiting for the little boy to pet her--still have to work on jumping up when she's happy to see someone, but she's much better.  Anyway, I sure hope she has good health.
