You can also have him run a blood panel right in the office to make sure her kidney, liver and glucose levels are normal.
Is the seller guaranteeing her health, and giving you some time to verify that she is healthy?
Keep us updated..and good luck on those finals!! And of course..Happy Birthday too!!  |
Thanks a bunch! I will definitely do that! For the blood test, what do I ask specifically for to ensure she is healthy? I am also going to do that for my current furbutts. Will the test let me know if they have LP and liver shunt?
This was my reply from her last night with more info about Vanilla...
Vanilla is AKC registered. This is a parti, she has the black spots on her skin, and the black that she did have when she was a tiny puppy turned, tan, which is on her face. I can't say she is potty trained, because honestly she just hasn't had good training. She does bark, but normally only when she feels ignored. For example, if put her outside to go potty and she can see me through the glass door she will bark, because she wants to be with me. She does not bark randomly, just normally if she sees me and wants to come to me, but something is stopping her, ha like a glass door.
She is not fixed, but will be coming into heat in a few months. If bleeding is something you want to avoid, then I would recommend getting her fixed. I am re-homing her because, life has just become too busy. I don't have the time I use to, and she deserves better. i hate coming home to a dog that has missed me all day, just to leave again, to take my kids, here and there.
She is crate trained, but I already promised a friend she could have the crate after I sold Vanilla. Her bed is normally a towel or the pile of dirty clothes. She comes with herself and her AKC papers.
I do want to warn you, she is a big girl, if you are looking for an itty bitty Yorkie, she is bigger than that.
she said she paid 2500 for her!!!
With that, shouldn't it meant that she got a health guarantee from her breeder? I will be rational upon purchasing her because I know better than before (thanks to YT). I hope Vanilla doesn't have a barking problem, otherwise, I can't get her. Also, I hope she's healthy and everything...it seems to me that she is not very spoiled...no rabies at 8 months?!?! no clothes?!? no bed?!? poor girl...it's time for someone to show her sone pampering
Any suggestions on what to do before/during/after I get her, please don't hesitate! I need some more advice on making sure she is healthy before I buy her...
