I have a Pomeranian she can't get up and walk, I have to pick her up and carry her.  When I Take her out side to the bathroom, she will manage to stand long enough to go to the bathroom, and when she starts to walk she wobbles from side to side.she won't walk around the house, she will bark and I will have to physically have to pick her up and move her room to room. She worries me I don,t want to loose her. Please tell me what might be wrong, and what I should do!  From debbie Laurel del
