One day, trusting in God isn't going to work for you in terms of saving the life of one of your yorkies. I mean NO disrespect here at all.....I am simply telling you the truth....the same truth that others here told you. A pup with diarrhea for more than a day should be seen by a vet...sometimes sooner than within 24 hours...depending on the amount. You cannot save a sick pup from dehydration by using a dropper. If a pup is THAT sick, that little bit isn't going to work.
I will say a prayer for all of these pups who are in your care. You are right...they need God because sadly their owner seems to not want to provide proper care for them. I am not getting into your financial situation..we all have times when things are difficult. This isn't about that. It is about your attitude here. SMH |
This is how I feel as well.
And just to add to that...
Using faith and religion as an excuse not to seek medical help is not right. To make such a presumptuous statement and endanger helpless pups by convincing yourself that you just need to have faith and avoid medical treatment is nothing short of negligence. It is not a lack of morals, not a character flaw, nor is it a lack of faith. Whatever religion you believe in, that God is the one who has gifted humans to be able to perform healing work.
