Lori, we are all concerned with the health of your puppy.  The best thing that you did was to relinquish the pup to the vet.  If you had kept your puppy and were not able to get the proper care for the puppy, what do you think would have happened?  Your puppy would have died.  Now your puppy has a chance to get the vet care that it needs.  Yes, I can understand your anger and frustration in not being able to get the puppy back, but you did the right thing.  You will at least be able to take comfort in the fact that the puppy did not die.  And someone will adopt Savannah and give her the medical care that she needs.  I'm not one of those do-gooders or someone who knows-it-all.  I am just a person who cares dearly for my pets and if something ever happened to one of these dogs and I couldn't afford the treatment, I would in heartbeat give them up so they can get the vet care that they need.  I would be devastated and miss them with all my heart, but I would know that they would be getting the care that they needed.     
Please try having a happy holiday and give hugs and kisses to your puppies.
