I Need Some In Put, Please! - YorkieTalk.com Forums

OLIVIA_KARHIS · 03-24-2006, 02:37 AM

Hi, I NEED some input..

Ok as EVERY ONE knows the pup I put my deposit down on has a BAD heart murmur (level 3)

Is it bad to look for a nother furbaby, just in case she dose not get better? I feel bad looking... And even when I do.. I cant find a nother baby that really even catched my eye, like she did....

I talked to a lady in Tx who has a 9month old Yorkie, who is like 2lb that She will sell to me for 1100.00 (her cost was 2500). Already fixed and half way potty trains.. She took her from a bad home and is trying to find her a better one...Her Name is Ruby. She is really cute in all but I dont feel comfortable even really looking at her..scent I am still HOPING and praying Princess Bella will get better... What do you guys thing?

Im I just thinking to much into this? Or am I crazy??

The 1st 3 is of Ruby (the little 2 lb yorkie) and the last one is of Bella.

I have also talked to Kitty On here about her yorkie female..I have not seen a photos of them yet.. But I bet there really cute! I have not decided on anything scent I really hope Bella gets better.. But I have read and looked up a lot of thing on the internet about her heart and it dose not look good... I read some where.. where like 1 and every 20 or 30 yorkies get better with a level 3.

But I still feel bad for even looking around. Ever thou I am JUST looking, I just feel bad that I am.. I hope SOMEONE understands me and how I feel.. or maybe I am just plane crazy and I think WAY to much into things

IMO as you havent actually got this pup yet and you know she already has problems i would think logically.....do you want the heartache, expense, stress of the problems she has.
If you had been told before you looked at her 'she has a heart problem' would you have even considered her?
If she was already resident in your home then it would be a different matter....

eensor · 03-24-2006, 05:11 AM

I agree. The breeder should not take any money from you for a dog with that serious of a health problem. If you buy her, you are possibly supporting a breeder who is breeding just for the $$$$. Don't anyone jump on me! I said "possibly." I'm sure little Bella needs a good home, though. Are you financially and emotionally prepared for this baby's needs? It is so heartbreaking to lose one. Good luck with your decision.

OLIVIA_KARHIS · 03-24-2006, 05:51 AM

Well its not the matter she has a heart problem. I have one. I know some what of what she is going though. I was born with one as well.

My Breeder didnt even know she had one, till I already put the deposit down .. she took her to the vet about a week after she got my deposit and found out she had a heart problem. She called me (from Tx to Germany) and told me and also said she is not goin to sell her to me, IF she dose not get better by the next vet visit (2 of April)

So if she dose not get better I cant get her...I can tranfer my deposit to a another female yorkie, when she has one.

Bella was the only female, out of 3 litters... she has a little due in april but she dose not know if she is going to have a female or not. This is her last litter for a while.

I feel bad looking around for a nother one....like I gave up on her or something...

chachi · 03-24-2006, 05:56 AM

I would look aound and not feel bad about it. I was going to adopt Chachis little sister. The Breeder was holding on to her because she had health problems. Just before the time I was to bring her home she died. The breeder had a female form another litter and I adopted her. The other puppy would have had health problems her entire life if she had lived. I was sad at the time but I am glad I got Jewels.

yougetthesmiles · 03-24-2006, 05:58 AM

is the breeder going to keep Bella if she does not get better? My heart would go for Bella, she needs a good loving mommy and you sound like you would be just the right mommy for lil Bella

Sugar's Mom · 03-24-2006, 06:06 AM

Personally, I would not buy a pup with ANY KIND of health problem that showed up before I completed the transaction. Now, if it developed after I brought the pup home, that's another story. I would love it and do all I can to take care of it.

Tiggerwit · 03-24-2006, 07:26 AM

What if she's doesn't have any more females? Will she give your deposit back?

OLIVIA_KARHIS · 03-24-2006, 08:12 AM

Yes, she will give me my deposit back. Full refund.

feminvstr · 03-24-2006, 08:19 AM

IMHO health should be your first and foremost concern.
If you buy a baby with health problems from the start you must be prepared for many vet bills, many sleepless nights and many days of worry as they age.

Tashasmom · 03-24-2006, 08:55 AM

I wouldn't get bella just for the simple fact imagine how you will feel if you have her in your home for a month or longer and she dies then. You are sad now but if that were to happen you would be devastated. I know you feel sad for him as I would but I think it'd be best for you if you didn't open yourself up for heartache when you can find one you can love for many many years. Cause trust me if you lose a pup you've had for a few months it's just as hard as losing one you've had for years. I really am sorry for you. Good luck and God bless
