Default Torn apart

I am feeling like I have abandoned a little Yorkie I consider my first grandchild (yes I love animals, especially my buddies/dogs). I found out about the love of Yorkies. My daughters third previous boyfriend bought her the dog 9 years ago when he was in Afghanistan serving in the military. My daughter was only 18 at the time and relied on me to bring him up and I did so as a father would do. They broke up after she cheated on him and I took care of my little boy for nine years. Now my daughter has another boyfriend who has influenced her to tear the dog I love away. We used to share the dog, mostly due to the fact my daughter was partying but understanding we had a loved and a shared Yorkie member of the family. Now after the new boyfriend who is cold, I have not seen my little boy for two months and he is lethargic and not looking well. It's breaking my heart. I love my daughter but she has no regard for my heart and just shuts me off from my first grandchild (I know it sounds silly, but I love the Yorkie too). I love my daughter but poor little Prince has become lethargic and does not look well. The Yorkie is 9 years old and not well suited to medications and just received a double whammy of a tick bite in their care and then due to a new puppy from the cold boyfriend and a puppy he bought after moving in with her also ended up Kennel Cough antibiotics and I am worried for the little mans health. I feel helpless as I have no support from my wife that just wants to keep everyone happy. I have always supported my son and daughter giving up my pension to zero so they could go to college but I am feeling really sad about the health of my first grandchild Yorkie Prince (yes, I love that dog dearly). I am considering telling my daughter how cold she is but have nobody to talk to so I'm asking here what people (loving women) think. Am I just selfish? I can see how his health is diminished and is is tearing my heat apeart. As a father, I don't know what to do as I love my daughter too and she has a new boyfriend I like, but he is in my opinion simply performing a turf war. I wanted to give Price a bath today when they came because the little man was raged and they lied saying he has a bath Monday. I know they lied to me and his poor eyes were wet and red. Should I just mind my own business? It's breaking my heart. Should I just let it go? I need some mothers to tell me if I am a jerk or if I should gently speak up to my daughter and wife. Prince is not looking well and I am very worried. It's tearing me inside.
