 Help
I just bought a 8month old male yorkie puppy 4pound from a breeder in Staten Island,NY..I had him flown to me on Nov 20th. Now he is sick, he has never acted right since I have had him. I know it takes time for a dog to adjust and I already have another yorkie(male) This new dog always sleeps not the least bit active and when he isn't laying on the dog bed we are holding him. But, after I had him a few days he started with diarreha, drooling, vomiting (I haven't changed dog food) sliding on the floor and pushing his head into furniture and now when he is sliding on the floor pushing with his head sometimes my other yorkie walks by and my new guy goes after him and starts a fight it's like he is out for blood, this has happened 4 times now. I have to keep the new guy crated if someone is not in the room with him for fear he will do real harm to my other yorkie. I have had him twice to the vets they have given him two types of medication and a shot. They also told me to only give him yogurt and cottage cheese and no other food because they our thinking it could be a liver shunt. I have contacted the breeder and he is blaming me for everything. He is telling me the dog was healthy there so it's my fault and if the dog dies I have to have a autopsy and I have to pay for it and then he will decide if he will refund my money. Also when I took my dog to the vets she said he has a crptorchid which he never told me about.The breeder stated in his ad he would make a good stud dog. Which I wasn't going to use him for a stud just a pet but he should have told me about the problem. He is now telling me a crpytorchid is no big deal. In New York State where I am from we have a lemon law for pets. I am very upset because this breeder is blaming me . I have to take the dog back to the vets tomorrow and my vet is going to call the breeders vet. I am worried about the agression problem my other yorkie is so afraid now. Please no flaming...I am looking for advice
