She claimed it was the stress of a new home - NOT ! IF I had believed her and some people would have - I'd have lost my beautiful Chanel.
We rushed Chanel to the vet - found out it was coccidia & I called her again. She claimed she'd never heard of it & hung up the phone. I wasn't rude at all - I was worried sick and wanted her to know her other puppies may be at risk.
This so called 'breeder' would have rather let my puppy DIE than admit she had a problem.  If my husband and I had believed her when she said it was normal for a puppy to act that sick when going to a new home - I wouldn't be here talking about it.
The reason I posted this is to say - a caring breeder would tell you what could be happening and also - to get to the Vet asap. A bad breeder will wash their hands of you once they have your money.
ps. Yes I plastered her name all over the net. Not because Chanel was sick but because of the way she handled it. |
This lady had put Stormy had bad knees on her papers, but why keep breeding the mom and dad if you were getting dogs with bad knees? Doesn't make sense. Yes they probably are nice humans, but personally if you can treat animals this way ,even if you know or don't know any better it is all the same. You have to be sick to think it is okay or to believe you are not harming them.
I'm glad your girl is okay!
