They also told me that her gums were white, which I knew, and even hours after the fluids they never changed in color. I did do research on the breed as I have wanted a yorkie for many years and have a 5 year old 5lb chihuahua who is in excellent health. On Friday I did have a normal do who did not throw up who did not diarrhea and who played and ate just like a regular puppy should. As soon as I realized she was more than ill I rushed her to the vet. As far as the necropsy, I had never had an animal die on me, I did not know what to do in the circumstance. I had just gotten the puppy 4 days ago I didn't imagine the poor thing dying. The only reason I turned it down the first time was bc I was uneducated in that aspect. As of now I am not. Turning it down a second time was bc thats what the vet
advised me to do due to her opinion of the results coming back inconclusive were highly likely. No the breeder did not have a website, but she did have many adds posted up and when I met her she seemed very nice and honest. The first time I met Lola she seemed in good health and when I went back a week later to purchase she seemed fine as well. Obviously that is not the case. I am a very trusting person and from now on my guard will be up when it come to purchasing another pup. The breeders name was Katia and refereed to her business as bundles of love out of Orlando. She was located back towards Apopka. |
Im glad you came back and updated us we were spinning our wheels and that sometimes happens for us. I feel so bad for you that on the advise of a breeder and a vet you did what they told you and your little pup died its just so unfair. This is a bad circumstance that no new owner should go through. I hope it doesnt hold you back from adopting a pup many people end up with a happy first time puppy experience it just wasnt in the cards for you. When you do consider adopting again be less concerned about price and more concerned about what kind of breeder you are getting a pup from. A reputable breeder would never avoid your calls they would take concern that one of there pups passed. Again Im sorry for your loss and I hope you continue to post. Your whole thread is a testament to why its important to buy from a reputable breeder
