BUMP How is the mother dog doing?

BlueFairy- I'll try tp get my way over there shortly ty. Are you going to take your girl to shows? I think this forum is great, and as a newbie here having only just stuck my muzzle in so to speak, the level of support shown to others is fantastic

Your Zoe is very cute bluefairy We will hopefully be having a little Puglet grace our home in the beginning of June

Really? So if a breeder sells a puppy with entropian on all four lids, cherry eye, skin allergies, etc the puppy owner should wear those costs??? Sorry, but that is not fair. If someone forks out for a pedigree puppy, they should get something healthy!! If they dont want to send the pup back,and get a full refund,then yes,that is fair.If they wish to keep the pup,why should the breeder then have to keep paying for vet bills past the purchase price when they do have the option to send it back and get a refund. Dogs can get sick,develop problems same as a human can,despite being from healthy parents and i think to refund/replace or in this case pay for op,is fair. I know someone who has spent thousands on their dog who developed allergies to pretty much everything environmental-he requires weekly injections,sometimes twice a week of the specialist allergy injection,they have chosen to pay for it rather than send the dog back -their choice,they have to wear the cost. Flame suit firmly in place. This is what I would do also. But I have my pups fully examined by a vet prior to it leaving here and the pup also comes with 6 weeks health cover. I always encourage my puppy buyers to continue with the health cover. However, it has not yet been clarified that pup was free of these things at the time that it left the breeder. In this senario IF the pup had any one of the listed conditions and the new owners were unaware of this then the breeder should be held accountalbe for the health costs. Also that the buyer should have a timeframe after purchase in which they have a choice to follow up with a vet for an independant health check ( eg 2 days) etc, that way it is checked over, skin, fleas etc. Those things should be spotted at a vet check. I can imagine the entropian might not be picked up straight away?? in all cases, and therefore the breeder can offer to pay for those things, but toys thats cheeky

Flame suit firmly in place. The entropian is a hereditary? condition, the dermatitis, and the mites are environmental? The toys should not even be on the bill. Make sure the bill os on the vets own letterhead paper, and then get it all itemised. Mites, and fleas well any dog can get that in its enviroment, the dermatitis, well maybe that is environmental and even dietary too. Are we talking all these conditions picked up in the first week of the pup being taken home? If this all happened within the first week ( eg buyers first vet check and they can say the pup came with these things reasonably then maybe they can argue costs of mites etc, but not if after all this, and it sounds like a 1st check was not done by the buyer.

What a great outcome K9- he's very lucky to have found an angel like you
