It is too late to mention whether or not you should have bought Chewy. You obviously thought you could trust this breeder, you wrote her praises when you thought all was good. We all make mistakes and I bet your statement on her site you would take down if you could. Symptoms of certain conditions can be missed for the first few months, not your fault at all, it happens.
Its obvious this dog was neglected by all the conditions it has, treatable or not it does not matter. Neglect to care for a puppy is abuse IMO.
This breeder is a member here and has not even posted since trying to sell pups. Its obvious she doesnt care to step in here and explain her side if there is one. Chewy was paid for, flight was reserved, Gia was found with the problem. I would not doubt if you had told the breeder not to send him that you wanted your money back, she would have ignored it all. Chewy wouldve been shipped regardless, sitting in an airport waiting to be picked up by someone. She got her money, what she wanted and wanted to be rid of Chewy and his problems.
Sorry you are having to deal with this. You should have been sent a healthy puppy, enjoying your time with him, being able to have all the puppies play together without restrictions. This is the joy of getting a new puppy and what is going on now is unfair to you and to them.
Thank goodness he has you and your family now.
