WOW, you sound very nice! As I purchased STAR, 6 years ago, Yorktown Heights, NY, I tried NUMEROUS times to contact the "breeder" to NO avail. The "breeder" never would respond to my phone/emails!
So now many years later, I have a pit in my stomoach with the thought of reaching out!
She is well known, a neighbor has recently purchased from this "breeder". I know financial times are different, but I was charged $1,000 more for Star. I feel even then I was taken advantage of, since it had been only two weeks after I lost my LOVE, APRIL at 13yo (from a different person) and I would have given my life savings for the pup! Now I am unemployed for four years and $$$ is tight.
Also, the breeder was/is part of the YT Club.
Meanwhile, when I realized the neighbor purchased from the same, the neighbor has not called me, as I suggested that I could discuss the medical issue that I have had from the start.
Putting that behind us (though the new adoptee resurfaced these problems) I am so upset regarding the collasped trachea! Star is supposed to have dental tomorrow, but my cousin who breeds Kerry Blue Terriers, suggests that I do not go ahead with dental at this time, while I'm working out the CT situation. Also, the charge is between $500 to $600! |
