My Puppy is now having Behavior Issues. I will be sending her to Puppy School for Six weeks to hopefully sort these issues out. After spending $1,750.00 on the wrong Puppy and over $1,000.00 in Vet Bills,I am now in for another $2,500.00 to hopefully correct her Behavior.
I Love my Puppy very much and will do everything I can for her. Just don't want this to happen to anyone else. Please don't buy from the Internet. Most of these Puppie's are from Puppy Mill's according to my Vet. I am not sorry for my mistake. I feel I have rescued this Little Girl from a World of who know's what? I will be more involved in supporting against Puppy Mill's.
Hopefully someday Dog's will not have to go through this to Support these Mill owner's who only want to make money from people like me...Not to mention the Hell all their Dog's go through Breeding constantly.
Thank you all for reading my post.. Maxi85 |
Welcome to Yorkietalk, I am so glad you joined. We need more people advocating good breeding, and sometime I feel like so many people don't understand why it's important to look for a good breeder when choosing a puppy. You're right about buying over the Internet, lots of people have learned that you shouldn't buy from pet stores, but think it's ok to buy from the Internet, and according to the Human Society, no good breeder would sell their dogs this way. A good breeder is looking for homes in which to place their puppies rather than just selling them, and are very particular on who adopts their puppies. So many people believe if the can get a cheap dog, that they really have made out well, but many find out later that behavior and health problems can add up to more than what a show dog would have cost. I am so sorry you had to learn this the hard way, but I'm glad you are taking a proactive stance in helping your dog overcome these difficulties. I think a majority of people either rehome, abandon, or euthanize dogs that could be rehabilitated.
