I wouldn't beat yourselves up. If you hadn't gotten them, who would have taken such good care of these babies.
I know, back when I got my first, I thought I was doing the right thing just not buying from a pet store or a "puppy mill". My 1st came from a not so good breeder who I don't think knew all of what they were doing. She was a very sickly girl - but well taken care of and loved dearly.
Lived and learned. This current pup came from someone whom I came to know and who knows what she is doing - much healthier! |
