I received a yorkie for my College graduation present. He was the most precious thing and I fell in love with him at first sight *as did my fiance*! We named him SoCo. He lived with us for less than 24 hrs and became so ill. The next morning I woke up early to check on him. He was vomiting, wouldn't eat or drink, and he was like in a coma. I was so scared I tried calling all vets and emergency animal hospitals trying to find a place near by. Come to find out my new puppy had Parvovirus which is very deadly especially when they are so young. He was only 1.5 lbs when he died and so very tiny and precious.
So here's the thing I called the breeder and told her my puppy died of parvovirus and I read over the SC breeders law and said they should give me another puppy and cash from my vet bills. We talked it over and she said she could not afford to pay for my vet bills but I can get pick of the next litter or cash of first dog sold. Now I know you are thinking DO NOT GET ANOTHER DOG FROM HER but actually it is a very long story. The breeders friend, another yorkie breeder, bought the dog from her to sell to me. When my puppy was at her friends house he got sick there. That lady never answered our phone calls after she heard he died of parvovirus so we had to call the lady who breed my dog. My breeder said she never lets her dogs outside so she will give me a guaranteed healthy dog this time and was very sad & sorry for my loss. It has been 7 months since I lost my little baby. I have been trying to call the breeder because she told me she will try again in November to get her yorkie pregnant so I can get my puppy. Now she is not answering her phone, text messages or voicemails. I have been calling her since the end of November. I do not know my next step in what to do. I have all documents of vet bills, the parvo test that said he died from parvovirus and SC Law that states she needs to pay me back or give me another dog. I wish I could get MY puppy back but that is not going to happen. I just do not know what to do because when I first spoke to the lady she was all "please I will work with you and I do not have money for vet bills but I promise I will work with you." Should I take legal action? Should I keep bothering her? I am at loss & still very upset. I wish I could share a happy story all about my new puppy who would be about 9 months old now. RIP SoCo you're so very loved forever & always mama's baby boy! 
All or any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thank you!  Rachy |
Oh, how awful. I am sorry that you lost your baby.
I would NOT get another dog from her, and I WOULD report her/take her to court/etc. Even if you cannot get your money back, I would report her to whomever you need to to get SOMETHING done about her. You DO have SC law behind you, it sounds like.
Good luck, but I would look elsewhere for another furbaby. Too much bad blood and uncertainty? : (
