Hi there. I got Hector (3 Months old) from a local pet store. We were not set on a breed yet but just knew we wanted a small dog. I will tell you what once I held him I was a gonner though. We got him 4 weeks ago and within twenty four hours of having him home he was sick and has been sick ever since. He is on the mend and getting better each day but we have been at the vet each week. He was $1,200.00 - which I am sure is outrages, but I was so in love with him I feel it is money well spent.
After we got him, there has been all sorts of problems with the pet store. They have been in the paper with stories of sick little puppies and even a few precious babies have passed away. I have had such a hard time with the thought we purchased Hector from such a terrible place. But I honestly feel he was not being taken care of and he was meant to go home to a loving home with us to get well. He may not had a chance otherwise.
I would like to eventually get a little female. I have fallen head over heels in love with Yorkies! I will never buy from a pet store again though. There have been too many negative things associated with buying Hector from there. |
