8 month old Chihuahua, Lily, is a 2016 Louisiana flood rescue Puppy Who suffered head trauma when her mother stepped on her head during the evacuation by boat. We took her in at the request of the person Who owned the mother because the mother wouldn't nurse it due to all the stress so we took her to our home and she was nursed by our Chihuahua mom who had just started weaning her puppies that were eight weeks old. Lily has a lot of fear issues including being afraid of door entry! This is the part one! We have been trying and trying to get her to walk through doorways she's just not having it (3months of this) she's a beautiful little peanut we love her and we are keeping her. Look for the update, it is The next step of what we did to get success!
