Thanks. I'd actually like to mention that I don't blame the breeder at all. He's been very supportive throughout this entire ordeal. He was very apologetic and apologized for what I believe was God's will. I also was in contact w/4 of the individuals that got rotties from the same litter and they have experienced no problems at all. In addition to speaking w/4 individuals that rotties from my same litter, I spoke w/another individual that got a rottie from him after my litter (with different parents of course) and he loves the dogs. The one thing that impressed me about this breeder is that he asked when you got your dog could he use you as a reference so people could either call or meet you w/your puppy. That's impressive. If he had something to hide, he would've never done that. That's how I was in contact w/the other individuals that got puppies from the same litter and the other litter. I'd have to admit that this was truly an act of God's will.

The $50 bucks would alarm me also but my story does not compared to a $50 rottie. I'm not upset but I truly believe in my heart that this was God's will. Why else would I be the only one that I know of, going through this w/my pup?

The advice you can give this poor soul is that they truly need to research or take the puppy to the vet as soon as they get it, if they decide to get one. You have to wonder if they'd be better off leaving the puppy there or taking it with them. Think about it, if these people are selling the pups for $50, they have to be desperate. Also, if the puppies aren't placed, what will happen to them? Can these people afford to feed the dogs, are they moving, what will happen to the puppies?

It's a lot to think about. My story is sad and I have learned something from this but in my case, I think it was God's will. There are a lot of things that I know to look for now because of this incident (and the help of my new family) but I'm going to put this one on the Man upstairs. It was His will and it was done!
