Okay, in May of 2004 our last two dogs, Owen and Emma the Pomeranian's passed at the ages of 16 and 14, and my mother felt that we were ready for another dog, as Barney, recently purchased at that time, seemed lonely without his old friends. My mom wanted a Papillion, because we had owned a Papillion previously, so we found a kennel about 40 minutes away, called Pick-A-Pup Kennel, who had two Papillions for sale.
When we got to the kennel, they told us that all of their puppies came from breeders. They showed us the two Papillions, twins, a male and a female. The puppies were small, and had an odd stance, but when we asked the kennel owner about it, she told us it was because they were so young. We videotaped the pups with our camcorder, just in case this turned out to be false. The pups were so cute, but all the male did was sleep and he had a horrible cold. We ended up choosing the female, at $1800. We were to come and pick her up in two days- Saturday.
Saturday morning we drove back to the kennel and picked up the little girl. We got her home and she seemed fine. We played with her, and then let her eat, drink, and nap. She didn't want to play at all that night. At about 3:00 AM in the morning, the puppy, who was sleeping in my room, woke me up with her crying. She was having siezurs and was throwing up, and it was horrible. She couldn't walk, she was foaming at the mouth. I woke up my mom, and we called the vets office. They said to wait a COUPLE OF HOURS before we brought her in. They said bring her at 6:00 AM. Well, at 6:00 we brought her in, and we had horrible thoughts racing through our heads. Had the puppy broken her back? Was she going to live? We prayed and prayed for her. When we arrived at the vets office, the rushed her to the emergency room, and FORCEFED HER KARRO SYRUP. She had low glucose, and was infested with worms like Giardia.
I have to go to school.... CONTINUED IN A FEW HOURS!!
Sorry!
