MeggieNRoxie,
I'm also very sorry you're going through this. No personal experience either, but I do know of a few positive outcomes. Several years ago we picked up a little pom puppy from one of those Petsmart Rescue things. We actually picked him up for a friend, and he was her first dog. He seemed perfectly healthy. We were given a number to call to have his medical records forwarded and when we did, we learned that he had just recovered from parvo. I was shocked, because he was such a busy, active, tiny little 12 week old pup! Twelve years later she still has him and he's still a small, happy, energetic pup.
Your yorkie is in the best place he can be at the vet's office and is getting the supportive care he needs. I'll say a little prayer for quick healing.
Irresponsible breeders make me so angry. There is no reason you should have to be going through this. And like others said, I fear you're on your own with it. I doubt this "breeder" is going to step up and take responsibility, Your pup is very lucky to have landed in your lap where he at least stands a chance to recover. Please keep us posted on how he's doing.
