yours has a really nice ridgeback thingo lol
..... untill, one of the pups didn't seem right a few days later... took it to the vets... it was severely constipated.... because????? it had no backside!!!! had to be put down. So much for the pounds vets "health check" !!! They were left in tears..not that they had lost their dog but because it had lived 8 weeks with such a terrible ailment..
Want to hear a Puppy Horror story?? this happened to close friends of mine last week. OK, starts with our friends 6 year old staffy getting put down as it had bone cancer....soooo......after a few month grievance my mates missus talked him into looking for a new pup as he was very down about loosing his mate...So they went down to the pound and found a pregnant female staffy... Great!!!! she was on hold till she birthed, then all were up for offer... they kept ringing for updates..it had two pups... they said tops, we want the lot (they were to keep the pups, adult female was to be given to his mum)....the pound said OK, well, they are up for grabs on this date..... after the pups had been weanded, vet checked, micro chipped ect ect.. cant hold them for you, just make sure you get down here when the gates open. soooo they turned up hours early waited for the gates to open, there were stacks of people waiting too.. but they were first in, got all 3 dogs!!! Happy Days
wow thats shocking!
We recently ended up with a lil mutt, staffy x bullterrier
Long story short, went to have a look at a portable cot and ended up coming home with one of 3 very mistreated pups.
They claimed their papered staffy was jumped by a friends bullterrier, and the guy thought mutts were worthless and had runied his female etc etc etc blah blah....
They were all filthy, literally covered in fleas and skin over bone.
Basically i left with a pup and not the cot. (wasnt worth it anyway)
As soon as i had the lil guy home, he was fed (could see his ribs and his backside sticking out etc) wormed, got rid of all his fleas and bathed him.
2 weeks later, boris has put on weight, his fur is growing back from the bald patches from scratching and hes doing fine and hes the most adorable affectionate lil guy!
His favourite nap spot is in front of the rocker at my daughters feet

Assuming all goes well, my new pup should be arriving around Valentines day (which is the day before my birthday). OH has already warned me that I'm not getting a Christmas, Valentines or birthday pressie - the pup is it :lol: Have been on the waiting list for this litter for months, so I'm excited that the countdown is finally on.
