However reading these stories is breaking my heart. I can't immagine the pain that these people are feeling.
I wish I had found this website prior to getting Aiko (so far his vet gives him a clean bill of health, except for allergy to vacines). Don't get me wrong I wouldn't trade him for anything in the world, I just wish I had been better informed. All of my dogs have come from the newspaper, and I have been very lucky each time.
I hope these individuals find the healthy puppy that helps to heal their heart soon!
