A couple of days ago she came over and she saw Chloe again and let me know that she was talking to someone at yorkiepup.com. I was pretty clueless, but she did tell me that she wanted a small dog and that Chloe was way too big when I offered my breeders info. Chloe is 4lbs. I can honestly say my breeder would never have sold a puppy to her. I was pretty hurt, but oh well, Megan has always been shallow and seems to be lacking a filter between her brain and her mouth. Now today she calls and says she has made arrangements and paid for the puppy... and what does she need to do. I have brought several concerns to her attention and she has gotten pretty upset. I think I will leave it at my last comment and hope that she will figure it out if her puppy needs emergency help. Thank you all for your help. And again, PLEASE don't think I am as shallow as my friend. Thank you! |
Nowhere in this thread have you said anything that would make us think that you are shallow so do not worry about that. Like I said before, we are all here because we care about the well-being of this little dog that your friend, unfortunately, is not well-equipped to take care of. You have done all you can do, and undoubtedly because you have presented yourself as very knowledgeable to your friend, she will come to you asking for help the second something goes wrong. Just please, make sure, that if the situation arises and your friend no longer wants the dog that you direct her to a rescue. Dogs tend to be bounced around from place to place by people who not only do not understand the responsibility of owning a dog, but given your friend's inability to use common sense, I doubt that she will be able to rehome her dog to a suitable family.
Thank you for caring for this little one.
