I think many breeders dont notice their swimmers and it just resolves. I had
a litter of two recently with one swimmer. I did not hobble but just threw
some blankets in that formed little mountains that had to be gone over to get
to mom and several times a day I held his legs in position and helped him
walk around. He was a fatso. I do not know if it is a fat thing or a genetic
thing. By six weeks he was fine. I hate hobbling them. Chere Workman
