The breeder says she'll do whatever I want so we've decided that she will pay for the echocardiogram and if the murmur is really bad that I will return Hoku and wait for another female puppy out of a future litter.
I am so torn, I don't know that I can give her up |
How old is she? Did you see a vet who is actually familiar with Yorkies?
I don't think I would jump to an echocardiogram too quickly.
I would see another Vet familiar with Yorkies for their opinion. Most Vets who do not know the breed, do stupid stuff because they don't know.
Is your breeder close by? Can you find a Vet that other Yorkie breeders use?
