It just makes me sick to think about how that poor little puppy is suffering

He doesn't even have a chance~the pet shop will do NOTHING to save him. Not only that but now there is a pet shop with a parvo outbreak.

I hope that she doesn't take another puppy from this place. Parvo is extremely contagious and they now have a parvo infected store full of puppies.
Just to put this into perspective~this puppy was removed from a puppymill WAY TOO YOUNG, shipped across the country in a big truck full of other puppies taken way too young. Because he was not properly vaccinated prior to being shipped he was exposed to parvo somewhere along the way. He was then taken to this pet shop and sold for BIG money to a teenage girl who has a pocket full of money and makes an impulse buy. Puppy gets sick and she has no knowledge. Puppy turns up sick and diagnosed with parvo. Puppy is returned to his DEATH to the pet shop~cheaper to let his die that to treat him.

Wonder how many other puppies were also infected along the way.
