Grannygrumpspups.com/Need advice on this breeder! My brother just bought two little yorkies, a girl and boy, one was to be for me and I was going to pick it up in a few weeks when I was in town. He wasn't too well informed about what to look for as far as breeders go and ended up buying them from a lady whom he'd found through a website. She sold the pups at 7 weeks old (which after I'd talked to other breeders I found out to be way too young) and a week after having the puppies they were'nt feeling so well. The little boy (my future pup) got really sick, he took him to the vet and said he was in really bad shape, not eating, very weak, diarrhea. The pup had been dewormed and given his first vaccines. My brother took as best care as he could, feeding the pup and make sure he didn't get hypoglycemia but a few days later the puppy got worse suddenly and died. He didn't get taken back to the vet for an autopsy (my brother just buried him). The pups had a health guarantee for the fist 6 months to be replaced if they died and the breeder was notified and is looking for another pup but I'm afraid if we get another dog from this lady the same thing will happen. I didn't see her home but I know that she breeds other dogs as well and won't let people in to see the kennel because of the "risk of Parvo to the pups" (according to her website). I'm really upset that she let the puppies go so early and I don't know if I can trust this breeder, anyone got any advice? |
