I am so sorry about your loss. You did everything you could and more. She was lucky to have you!!! I agree with a few others that the breeder owes you. I would not take another dog from her as all are probably infected with coccidia or whatever. I am wondering if it was possible that your yorkie had a major liver shunt disease? That is hereditary with yorkies. I would take the breeder to small claims court or threaten to turn her over to the authorities. Did you get to see where she keeps the dogs? Are they taken care of? Poor babies. She should have never let her go in the first place at 9 weeks. She should have been with her litter mates and mother until 12 weeks old.
As for cleaning up I used to have a daycare and we would spray the babies toys and floors, furniture, crib bars, etc. with a bottle of bleach water. All it takes is a tablespoon of bleach to 1 gallon of water. Then spray on after cleaning with another cleaner and let air dry. It is supposed to sanitize and kill bacteria.
As for getting another puppy. When your anger and grief have subsided I say "Go For It". Some little yorkie out there needs you and you them.
Best of Luck and God Bless you and your family! |
