puppypetite store dont know what to do? hey guys i bought a yorkie from a store called puppypetite. i got alot of medicine and stuff that i got to give it to the puppy. any idea what i should do? |
I hate to tell you this, but your puppy is probably sick. I got Reese from there last summer and ended up spending 800 at the emergency vet because her so called "kennel cough" was pneumonia. If they gave you something called "clavamox" you need to take your pup to the vet asap and get something stronger. This medication is the equivalent of giving a small puppy water and does nothing to correct the cough. They also had her on Eukanuba..terrible food, get a new one if that is the case for you as well. In addition, I had a ton of other things they had me give her, but the clavamox sticks out in my mind.. Please take care of this so you don't end up in the same position that I did.. I LOVE Reese but would never get or recommend another person getting their dog from their after my experience...all from puppy mills...good luck!! |
Your situation doesnt sound good... Any time a pup comes with medication, thats cause for concern (JMO). What did they tell you the medicine is for? As laurapoi stated, I'd get that pup to the vet asap.... I hope everything goes well and please keep us updated :) |
the antibiotic they gave me they told me it was because he will get a cold. im taking him to a vet on Thursday do u think thats to long to wait? |
Hi and Welcome to yt, How old is your new baby ? did they say why the med? is he/she sick? you may want to get the baby to the vet. let us know. |
He will get a cold ?!?! So the store is selling you a puppy that "will get a cold" ?!?!? Our puppies are 12 weeks old and have never had an issue - kennel cough, cold, etc. They have their full vacines and physicals to make sure they are in tip top condition. Yet people balk at the $2000 we charge but have no problem paying $1200-1800 at a pet store for a puppy mill puppy. Sorry to rant it just bothers me that pet stores get away with this garbage and the suffering that new owners go through when dealing with the results. Good luck and all the best. Get that puppy to the vet asap. Hopefully everything will be ok. |
they told me that because im taking him home he might get a cold. **** sorry for my language but im pissed i got him for my girlfriend and i feel terible getting him there s**t i just hope he will be fine |
he is 2 months old and its really not about the money i just wanted to get my girlfriend a great present and now i see there is going to be problems with him. i feel terrible. |
How long have you had the puppy? I know that you are given 14 days to get your money back if the puppy is sick. Im not sure how you feel about giving him/her back but it is an option you have. That place sells sick puppymill puppies (you might get lucky and get a puppy that is healthy). sometimes the puppy shows signs of sickness right away while other times it shows up when they get older. |
i got him 5 days ago and last night he started coughing and sneezing |
There might not be any problems with the new puppy. But, I would see if you could get him into the vet tomorrow rather than waiting till Thursday. Hopefully you will get a clean bill of health. If not, please do not hesitate to return him and look for a reputable breeder. There are several folks here that could give you referrals. What a great guy you are to give your girlfriend such a wonderful gift. Welcome to YT!!! |

If I were you I would take the puppy back, you could be looking at hundreds of dollars in vet bills. Buy from a reputable breeder and feel good about your purchase. Don't mean to be cold about it, but you should still have time to return the puppy. |
i will take him to a vet tomorrow. there is a problem i sign a contract with them stating that i need a document from a vet stating that the puppy is unfit for sale |
