Has the breeder coughed up $$$$$$$$$ or just advice and suggestions????? You need the funds to get this baby to Auburn, and the breeder, even if she has been breeding for 50 years and has never had anyone, anywhere, in her breeding program, end up with this affliction, she is LOOKING AT a product of HER breeding program NOW! She needs to "get some skin in the game', she needs to be financially involved! Until this is accurately diagnosed, by a specialist, then all this is nothing but guessing and hypothesising, and is of NO HELP to this baby. Vaccinations are a GREAT scapegoat!! We can quickly blame EVERYTHING that goes wrong, on those dastardly vaccinations....but realistically, you MUST have an accurate diagnosis. Vaccinations quickly shift the blame and responsibility from the breeder to YOU and your vet....which is just fine, IF IT IS TRUE!! My cousin has 3-6 family yard sales, and they have come out super.....their highest earner was close to $7000.00!....but then divide that down between an average of 6 families, and you dont have hardly enough to cover the diagnostic testing plus the on going follow up testing that this baby needs to have. I really would ask you to seriously consider allowing someone with the financial means to help this baby, have him to do what they can....If this was my baby, and I had no money to put towards medical expenses, and I couldnt find anyone that could see that this baby get the care he needs, I would have to really consider options that are not usually within my realm of consideration.
