Sylvan, That is so nice of you. :luvu: You too have a big Heart :love: It's so nice to hear that their a people out there who cares. Keep us posted on this |
re: puppy I'm taking the female I rescued to the vet today I'll keep you posted on what he says. I got her to drink water by herself this morning. She has 3 males left, I saw the mother and she said the father got hit by a car. I don't think I can post the pics because I forgot my digital camera cord and my sister's is different. I leave back for California tomorrow, and of course you can't ship puppies that young. My sister would take the puppies in but she is due with a baby anytime and my parents can't take care of more than 1. I think you found the right ad, she lives on West Edward's street, which is in the ghetto. |
I might be able to give you some money. She ONLY accepts cash which is hard for me to come up with since my bank isn't here and ATMs only let you take out $400.00. Please take pictures of the puppies in the box. I forgot to, I only took pics of the mother and one of them. I think a good breeder would have at least a cage or a seperate area for them, not a box lined in newspaper. I think that she took the mother away from them so the would start "eating on their own." But they're not. She admitted that they're only eatting soaked dogfood and not drinking on their own. |
This is so sad. I hope they all get rescued and find loving homes. |
re: puppy I just looked at the AKC paper, her name is Ruth Boggs. She didn't even fill out the new owner's info, she wanted me to. She obviously doesn't care what happens to the puppy, with the paperwork blank it could be resold. |
Can you sell a puppy at 5 weeks old? I know some states regulate that a puppy must be at least 6 weeks old before leaving. You may want to look into that... |
You ladies are AWESOME !! This is just beautiful to read and good luck in helping those poor babies ...what big hearts you have ! |
That is just terrible :( How in the world can five week old puppies who eat watered down dog food eat you out of house and home :mad: :thumbdown :mad: She obviously doesn't care about the well being of these little helpless babies and to separate them from their mother at 5 weeks of age is just absurd! And the father got his by a car! I hope you all are able to work something out and get them all. Surely to goodness she isn't a breeder :mad: What a sad story :( |
re: puppy The vet said she didn't know, but usually they wait until at least 6 weeks so they'd get their first shots. My sister said that Illinois has no law, it's up to the breeder, but good breeders usually keep them up to 9 weeks, but since yorkies are such a little pup, I wouldn't let them go for less than 10 weeks. |
I know what I am going to say is going to be VERY unpopular, but, in giving the money to this BYB and taking these undernourished, abused pups from her aren't you rewarding her behaviour? She makes 500.00 a pup, with very little effort on her part, that is alot of money for someone who thinks puppies are eating her out of house and home. So now what, no more puppies, breed her female yet again, ignore the puppies, abuse them, sell them again for 500.00 more dollars each... more money in her pocket. She has quite a game going. Now if she were "stuck" with the puppies, maybe she would turn them over to the shelter or rescue and get out of the game. All you are doing is paying her money to go out and breed again. The cycle needs to stop somewhere. Please understand, I admire your caring for these pups, you have big, generous , loving hearts, exactly what this monster is preying on. Don't we advise people to walk away from puppy mill pups and pet store pups to help stop the cycle? |
But for $500 a pup she will eventually find them homes regardless who the buyer is. Isn't it better that these pups are rescued by someone who cares and knows what these babies need UNTIL they are old enough to go to their forever homes. Someone off the street not knowing any better will just see a tiny pup and not think of the dangers that these babies are facing at such a young age. And someone did mention about trying to buy the Mama dog also to stop the cycle. I wish I was able to help these babies. I commend all those on here who have such huge hearts and caring souls. As always, I am grateful to be a part of this forum due in large part to its wonderful members :thumbup: |
I totally agree with 'Velobabe' |
I can see where 3puppies4me AND velobabe are coming from. I mean, we are trying to stop puppymills right? But if this litter was just an accident, maybe it is best to rescue the babies from an unknown fate. I would feel a lot better about the situation if the mom was rescued too, just to make sure. But I am very glad people are trying to rescue them, for that price someone WILL buy them, maybe it's best if someone does interfer and rescue them, not just buy a cute little puppy. (of course they are adorable, but by rescue i mean that they know what is in store and what is best for the puppies) |
I still think this is consider neglect. I think calling the SPCA will teach this woman or at least they will have her on record. Im happy that you rescued a pup and I wish I had some money to help you in rescuing the others. But like 3puppies4me said this woman is getting the money and she didnt even care properly for the puppies. Sylvan, you are so kind. I really hope this poor pups get rescue soon. |
re: puppies I agree with velo also that people will buy up these dogs and might not give them the vet treatment they need. This puppy bearly has any teeth. I don't think this litter was an accident, they're AKC registered, but the father has died and she says that she doesn't feel like replacing him yet. She also has a 3lb female, I told her that she is too small to breed and she agreed with me and said she is 5 years and will not breed her. But she did have big and swollen nipples. She said she had put a deposit down on her and the breeder changed her mind until she threatened to call the police on her. I wish she never would have sold her. |
