She was up all night on Sat and Sunday AM went to the ER. The puppy was near death and she paid to have it cared for with fluids, etc. The vet diagnosed large open fontanel, hypoglycemia but not primary-it was due in her opinion to LS. My friend called her credit card co and they told her to take a policeman with her when she went to return the puppy. She was afraid the poor baby was gonna die before she could even get him back to the breeder.
END OF THE STORY--on Terr pets, the puppy is listed again with a higher price and free shipping. That IMO is as bad as any puppy miller. Someone will pay $2200.00 with free shipping for him to be sent from GA and he will most likely be dead by the time he reached his destination. Poor baby.
I apologize for hi-jacking your thread but I wanted to point out that a large operation can be a mill but a small operation can be as bad... |
OMG, you will not believe this. Lil Pedro who is described in my post is listed again on Terrific pets for $2200.00 incl shipping and on Puppyfind for $3200.00 incl shipping. Can you imagine a person paying for this baby, waiting anxiously at the airport for the love of their lives and having it arrive dead in the carrier? The seller will insure, and collect the insurance money and still make out like a bandit and that poor, poor baby will..It breaks my heart to think what will happen to it in that crate where no one will be with it...Pray that if the baby is to die, it will be with a human who can hold it and kiss it g'bye. This is so sad!!
If you want to find the ad, PM me and I will find it...thru my tears..
