I might add a lot of reputable breeders would let the owner keep the dog and pay the vet bills.

Someone who is concerned for the dogs first would do this.

I highly doubt this happened because of dog food or a an injury to the brain but that is just my opinion based on a dog that was hit in the head with a baseball bat and if it was dog food the dog would be dead.

I totally agree after 5 years this should be over. However, these types of posts - as upsetting as they are, teach me so much. For instance if I'm reading this right - I can go to a breeders home, and even though I find the conditions of the home/kennel/and some puppies below standard, I can choose to purchase a puppy, take it home, and after several weeks, discover it is not well - I can then contact the breeder and expect that the breeder should pay the vet bills, and let me keep the puppy, without having to show any type of proof from a vet that it was indeed caused by bad breeding. I didn't know that - I guess that is good information to have when I look for my next furbaby. Bridget was a rescue so I am not aware of the options to those who purchase from a breeder. Now I know what to look for. Or am I reading this wrong....I'm really just trying to learn from others trials and errors.
