Looking at the breeders comments and those from Rich in the email along with all the other posts it does seem like little Max is getting lost in it all. I am sure Rich and Sheila are doing all they can for him at the moment but I do see their pain and hurt over the experience because it is so different from with their last show breeder. I also see where the breeder is coming from up to a point. Although I absolutely feel they should of been given a certificate of health from Judy's vet at time of purchase, I also see where she would like to see the reports from their vets as evidence of his issues. I am a little confused by the email because it doesn't say if they want to keep max and receive the little female pup also or are returning him to Judy. Either way I pray both do what is best for this tiny little guy who has no say in all he is going through. Bless all concerned and please do what is best for him, which I am sure you all know in your hearts would be best for all of you too. For Rich and Sheila to help heal their stress and pain and for Judy to help heal her reputation. I know you have said Judy that you are getting ready to retire and I am sure you don't want to do this with a black mark on your reputation so I do feel you are trying also. Maybe a few phone exchanges would help? Just a thought. God bless you all concerned especially little Max. |
