Thanks for calling and letting me know about Belle, Helene.
Like your vet said, it's the last thing she needed after all the trauma she has been through already. I'm sure she will be the same bouncy baby she is with us humans, but it will certainly be a setback in her relations with other dogs. Hopefully she will get over it by summer and we can introduce Ttakas and Bronte to her with better results. Can't wait to see them play in your 'big backyard', just like they did with Sergeant.
Healing vibes, both physically and socially, from Ttakas, Bronte and all the gang at our house!
