I would not believe one word that comes out of the breeder's mouth, and I would never take his advice on how to treat a sick puppy. He's the one who sent you the puppy in this condition.
Listen to your vet. If you're unsure about his diagnosis (or lack thereof), get a second opinion. And a third.
This little guy is going to need you to keep a sharp eye on him, even after you get a diagnosis and treatment plan you feel comfortable with and that produces results.
Sending good thoughts your way. |
