took her to the vet earlier. The vet where The Pet Company gave us FREE for our first visit. I can honestly say that thanks to you guys, we were able to get good service. I was on top of things letting the lady vet know every little detail about our sick 3month old yorkie. As I told her pretty much the whole story as indicated in the first post, also explaing how she was $2,500 expensive, she concluded that our yorkie is "unfit for sale" due to kennel cough and tracheobronchitis. She gave us a choice to either keep her and treat her to make her feel better, or the option to return her if we wanted.
She gave us pills for our dog "jenna short for Geanalyn" to take called Chloramphenicol 250mg 1/4 tablet every 8hrs. She explained to us that this would treat her sickness.

I need everybody's opinion on what we should do now. This is where we currently stand. Our currently sick yorkie cost us $2,500 and today at work, I was searching for a yorkie on the internet for sale, and LUCKILY came across a 2 month old female yorkie just 15 miles away from us. After the vet visit, we visited where the yorkie for sale resides. Her price tag is $1,000. That's $1,500 we can save if we do return our current sick yorkie and just get this family owned puppy yorkie. What do you think? We really are stuck and dont know what to do and maybe your opinion will help us make our final decision. I know we have only had our sick yorkie for 3 days now, but I am ALREADY SO ATTACHED to her!

we are both college students so it would help if we save money, but at the same time, I am thinking of what will happen to our current sick yorkie if we do give her back. Would she be ok? Will she still be up for sale when we return her? We both just want the best for her and hope that she gets better and get all the love and care she deserve.

Sorry for such a long post but I just wanted to vent and share with you all our current situation.
So bottom line, is it worth keeping our $2,500 sick yorkie and try our best to take good care of her and hope she gets better. Or return her to purchase the $1,000 2month old yorkie and save $1,500.
Sorry for the short notice, but we need to make up our mind today saturday by 1pm est.

Thank you all for your time! And we appreciate all your help and opinion
