What I still don't get is this....why is online, a forum ect... the first place someone comes too when their pet is really sick, have problems with whelping instead of calling their vet or breeder first? Is it because the vet may say bring them in and you can't afford a vet visit and if that's the case you shouldn't own a pet.
I've always called my vet first and then sought out someone online ect..to see if they've had the same similar experience. That's what gets me in a tizzy these days, because I've stopped answering the same questions over and over and getting my head bit off because it's not the answer they wanted

Donna, I agree but sometimes even these Vets dont have the right answer for this breed. I have gone thru 3 Vets and finally found one that will atleast do research and phone other vets to get an answer. We all have seen small pups dying on this Site and the Vet does not act aggressively and the pup dies. Maybe thats why some come online to talk first to be prepared with questions for their Vets. I have learned so much on this site because people have taken the time to give me some answers.
