A yorkie-poo.Which is what my Zoey is.

That is horrible! Thank goodness your little girl is ok. Wishing her well with her tumor removal. A vet who does not look at a patients' chart, should not be a vet :thumbdown

Wow I cant believe that happened. I dont think theres any more you can do about it since you didnt pay for the spay and took the pup he offered

NO KIDDING! She has had this appointment for 2 weeks. I would have thought they would have at least looked,to go over a plan or something!

This is the craziest thing I have ever heard!

*UPDATE* Took the new puppy to the vet! That bastard gave me a sick puppy!!!!!:mad::mad::mad:She hasnt been eating good,so I just got back from the vet. She wont eat,and she may have a respiratory infection!!!!!! Can you freaking believe this??? I am furious!!!!!!!

Wow, this is all so... wow

So the vet went out the same day as her surgery and got you a new YorkiePoo that was 8 weeks old and gave her to you yesterday, she isn't eating and did you take her back to that vet??? Did he say where he got an 8 week old puppy and did he give you her papers?

Yes,the other veternarian that works there is going to take her home for 24 hours to monitor.I trust her 100% percent,I WISH she would have done the surgery and so does she.

He didnt give me papers or anything,I called this morning to get some,and find out where she came from etc.:mad:
And hes MIA:rolleyes: They tried calling him to find out because I want and need to know those things. The other vet thats taking Bella home,said she would find out and make sure I know.

OMG!!!:eek:
What the *^#*:mad:
I can't believe my eyes.

I'm so sorry you are going through this.
I hope your little girl is recovering from her surgery without any issues.
I'm keeping you and your 2 little ones in my prayers.
Keep us posted.

So, if this new puppy is sick, respitory (sp) troubles...is this something that you would to worry about, you lil girl catching?? esp. right after surgery?

So, sorry your going through this mess. it is just unbelieveable, that there are vets out there like this....

Yes that is why the vet kept Bella (new puppy) to try and monitor her to make sure that she does or dont have the respiratory infection. The vet called me last night just to update me that she has gotten the puppy to finally eat a little,and that she has gained an ounce,But hasnt said anything about the infection yet.

The other vet(the one that done the wrond surgery,etc) is still MIA,and hasnt returned anyones calls about the new puppy,all the girls that work in the office have tried and tried to reach him because we need to know about this puppy. I dont even know for sure how old the puppy is!!!:mad:
He said 8 weeks but I cant trust him.
The vet I love that is monitoring the new puppy(i love this vet!) said that she saw a yorkie-poo last week that was having trouble eating,so she thinks he may have gotten the dog from that family.
The dog was cheap I am sure,since it is sickly,that is prob why he got it:cry:The least he could have done was gotten me a healthy puppy.
I am an insurance office rep,and the vet has insurance with us and he has had a few returned checks here lately so:confused:
Uhhh im so torn! This is TERRIBLE!

Although my Zoey is doing great! When I took the new puppy into the vet yesterday,I got Zoey some meds since she was acting like she was in some pain. She is doing good though! Shes so active,and shes not supposed to be. I get scared when she jumps off the bed because I have a high bed,and I dont want her to her herself,or her incision, So I have been picking her up to put her on the bed,so now when she wants on the bed she just looks at me like momma put me up there:heart toIts so cute!! But shes doing good, THANKS FOR ALL YOUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS!!!

*UPDATE* Little Bella finally started eating! Not as much as I would like her too,but a great start on it.Shes still battling the upper respiratory infection. She had amoxicillian for 10 days,and still has a bad cough. If that doesnt start getting better she will be back at the vet.

We went to the vet last week to get Zoeys stitches removed. We had to wait for awhile then finally got a room. As soon as we get in there guess who walks in? Thats crazy dr! He said Hi how can I help you,my grandma was with me so she said oh we're just waiting for Rebecca (the other vet),just trying to keep our cool. Then he looks at Bella and says "oh what a cute little one" like he doesnt even remember wtf had happened. Then he said "oh is this the little puppy that was sick,oh and that one was the one I did the wrong surgery on" just smiling and seemed as happy as could be. So my grandma said "what are you smiling about,this really isnt a smiling matter,there is really nothing to be smiling about"
His exact words were " IM JUST A PLEASENT PERSON!:eek::mad::eek::mad:

OK this guy is a freak show...you gotta report him.

I have reported to the BBB,in request to have his license removed. I dont know how that will go though,or if there is anything else I can do about it.

I am so sorry that you and your babies are going through all of this. My new puppy had kennel cough/pneumonia when I got him. He did not respond to Clavamox or Amoxicillian. I finally had chest xrays and blood work done. The xrays showed a little congestion but the blood work showed he was fighting pneumonia. I had to leave him at the hospital for 3 days to receive IV antibiotics and inhalation therapy. He finally got rid of his cough. Have you had blood work done to see if she is fighting off pneumonia? I hope the other vet is taking good care of your babies. I would definitley report this Doctor. There must be a somewhere you can report him even if you decide to not press charges. If nothing else go online and see if you can post somewhere to warn others to stay away from him. I wish all the best.

Holy crap! I hope your babies will be ok. So what happened after the appt? Did grandma rip him a new one?

No I havent but she has to get her 2nd shots today so I will ask the vet about it.

There has got to be a Veterinary Board of Medicene that you can contact to file a complaint so this guy can be investigated. A medical license is public record and you should be able to locate his license number on your state's (Alabama's) department of health website. You should give him back the puppy as I believe that you have a case worth looking into.

Good luck! I hope your little girl is doing better

Alabama Board of Medical Examiners

I found this link to the alabama medical licensure lookup. You can input the physician's name and find his license number. On the homepage www.albme.org, you can find a complaint form and send it to the medical board.

Please report him. What he did was medical malpractice. If a doctor did the wrong surgery on a human it would be all over the news!

Holy CRAPPPPPPPPPPP!!!

I just read through this thread and my mouth is hanging open!!!:eek:

I'm so sorry all this happened to you!!!!!!!! I hope to god your pup was due for a spay since she got one unscheduled!!!!!!!!

How's her leg/tumor????? Poor baby!!!

Take Grandma next time again and make sure she sees the wackjob vet and gives him a BEAT DOWN!!!!!!!

HUGS!!!!

His name is not on there? He is a Vet though:confused:

That's strange. Perhaps there is a number to call. Anyone with a medical license should be on there. Maybe you fill out the complaint form with whatever information you do know and let them investigate. Is there an office manager at that practice that you can talk to? Maybe they can give you the additional info you need. Anyone's medical license should be posted in the office or you should be able to see it upon request.

The other vets name wasnt on there either so:confused:
I have no clue. There has got to be someone else to report it to other than the Better Business Bureau

I'm just now seeing this thread, and all I can say is it is almost unbelievable. So, now you have 2 pups which generates a lot of business for the vet in the future, and the vet/clinic should be doing everything free for at least the first year or so. Hopefully they don't have the nerve to charge you for any care of the sick pup he gave you.

Wishing you the best of luck with your babies!

He doesnt see the two dogs,the other vet does,but im sure if it were him he would still charge me,although she doesnt and it wasnt even her fault.

Im just so torn up about it still. My poor Zoeys having a hard time learning that shes not the only baby anymore. And now Bella (new pup)is a little stinker.Shes a little devil,and is mean as all get out,but shes a cutie! I really didnt want/need another dog. But since the moment I saw her I fell in love with her and cant give her back now because we are too attached.

However,when I filed the first report to the BBB it asked what you would like to do about the case and I put not yet determined,after that last vet visit though,I added that to the case,and let them know that I would like his license removed for the malpractice,and for everyone in the area of Cullman,AL to know about the horrible thing that he done.

Is he board certified? If so, that is who you need to talk to. I hope your baby's leg is ok.

I am assuming he is? How do I find out? and who would I need to talk to,the board?
