I just saw your last post and think you definitely need an attorney. Although I know all you can think about is your loss right now (we would all be the same way), you need to be certain that you are compensated for your loss (I know money can't ease your pain), vet bills, another Yorkie if you feel you would want to do that at some point down the road, etc. It also doesn't sound like this was "Precious"'s first offense considering what happened to the beagle!
I am so sorry you having to go though this.
