I have a 5 week old Peke (weighing 1 pound) that I rescued from an accidental (careless) breeding. He has 2 hernias. The small umbilical one is not my main concern. However, he also has a large abdominal hernia which, of course, will require surgery. The vet is watching it trying to buy Taz some more time since he is so young and small. Any input would be greatly appreciated. I am trying to make as informed decision as possible. Thank you
