My eyes have been opened by Ladyjane's posts and others like her in rescue. I am so thankful that LJ is here to help educate, even if it is something that you do not want to hear or think about. She is passionate because she is on the front line of saving dogs lives and I cannot even imagine what she sees everyday. So very, very sad.
It sounds like you are not going to change your mind about this breeder, so wish you the best of luck and keeping my fingers crossed that your pup has many years of good health. If nothing else, perhaps this discussion will be helpful to you in the future, if you decide to add another pup to your family. |
100% agreed.. these bad backyard breeders rely on the good heart of the buyers... this happened to me as well.. a long time ago when I had no idea that backyard breeders really existed.. i thought everybody was the same good heart as I was.. my 10 months yorkie died on my hands because of genetic problems.. i will never forget that as long as I live
