This issue has totally captivated my attention. I think these breeders are a puppy mill. I also have looked extensively at the images of the puppies and believe it might be the same one. Just that when the photo on the website was taken it was before the puppy became so ill.
I am posting these images below. I do photo restoration and old, old photos are sometimes have to have the 'color' restored as well. I have used one of my programs to take some of the 'blueness' out of the sick puppy image and it is 'more like' in color with the original photo from the website (which is the work of a professional photographer).
Just like humans, when gravely ill, there is a marked change in the appearance. Please view the image below and tell me if you think it might be the same puppy....just gravely ill. |
