i am writing thes board of breeders to get help

i have litter of golden retrievers poppies. same papa as befor no prlbmems.

this time i have problem. 2 poppies are very clumsy, they fall down a lot and spin round. when i call poppies, they no com unles i very clos in front of them. they somtime spin round and round like they no see or her me.

my vet no what it is. someting like possibl neurological problue

Just a suggestion, check their hearing ability.

You may also want to look into liver problems such as liver shunts that can cause this clumbsy type behavior. The spinning and falling.

thanks very much

this is 2 poppies

Separate the two puppies from the rest, wait to they are sleeping. See if you can wake them up by making a noise, do not do anything to cause a vibration.
Also take one, put it by itself, walk out of sight. Them come back where you can see the puppy and call it.
How old are they (in weeks)?

the poppies are 5 1/2 weeks. poppies were outside an i clanged 2 poppie pans and they moved heads. they look at when toy scweeks.

to day the poppies were in howse playin, but when one poppie move out by self. he spin around and around.
my son go get poppie,and he ok again.
one poppie very happy. he fall down, and no cry. oter poppie is fraid if by self, and he cry. i no like to see cry.i bring him to oter poppies.
