I have a friend who's yorkie had surgery on both legs and can't imagine what that was like for both of them....then add the cost on top of it
it's sad that this common problem can't be wiped out and be a thing of the past |
Villette,
I really believe from reading so many of your posts, that you are truly one of the kindest, most compassionate members of this forum.
God Bless you for taking that precious baby out of that place!!!!
I do believe, that there are many good breeders, trying very hard to improve the health of the breed. So, hopefully, due to their efforts, things such as L.P. and bad bites, will be a thing of the past.
Sheila
