Petland
Sick puppy

Simon's tale, another tragic story about my dog which was bought in the Westland MI Petland in September. Simon is just a 5 pound Torkie, Toy Fox Terrier and Yorkie mix.

After dropping my collie Rascal to cancer in September of I seriously needed another canine friend. I created atleast twelve efforts to find the best friend at my neighborhood Humane Society but, had no chance choosing the best fit. On my way house in the Humane Society, I handed from the Westland Petland and noticed a dog available sign-out top and my treats got the very best of me. I ceased in and also the moment I noticed small Simon, it had been love in the beginning view and my ideas went into recovery function. I'd to obtain him out-of that little crate, from the children beating about the glass and also the additional mayhem happening within the shop.

I asked using the youthful revenue woman about Simon and that is where the history truly starts. I thought I requested all of the correct concerns about his reproduction and his health. I had been unaware that Petland had a lot of impending difficulties with promoting sick puppies. I had been informed that Simon was a healthier 2.5 pound Torkie dog that were frequently examined from the shops favored vet. I had been educated that Simon had an issue named Luxating Patella or in keeping conditions a technique leg, I had been unfamiliar with the issue and so I asked and was informed Simon might grow-out of the problem. I had been also informed that it had been typical in little pets, that it had been not severe and wouldn't need medical attention.

Nicely weeks later his so-called leg problem wasn't improving. Simon has been identified by both my vet and also the shops vet he includes a really significant problem called Legg Perthes. The problem wasn't together with his leg, it's a hereditary hip problem that triggers your dog togo worthless and certainly will just be fixed with expensive surgery. Simonis back right leg is wholly worthless and it is creating pressure on his back left knee. Simon has been robbed of his fantastic dog cover, he cannot operate and play-like a dog must due to the discomfort and pain in his hip.

Petland is well-aware of the problem and that I have requested their help in assisting me using the anticipated $2100.00 surgery charge. I've requested to consult with the store-owners personally but, to date I've just had individual connection with the store-manager. The homeowners did deliver me several characters indicating their issues but, to date have just set me in touch with their vet to complete the surgery in a reduced charge. This is actually the same vet that neglect-identified Simon within the first place.

On 4/28/10, I asked concerning the breeder and was informed from the supervisor they understood who the breeder was and might follow-up with me using the data. After I need back again to the shop on 5/10 to get my copies of Simons x rays and requested again for that breeder data the store-manager told me they didn't possess the data like I had been first informed. I went home and named the shop back, I sensed I had been being lied to and also the supervisor accepted the homeowners set her as much as it. They deliberately had her rest simply because they didn't wish to launch the breeder data.

At this time I'm beyond annoyed, personally I think the shop is covering the truth that the are coping with poor breeders and puppy mills. I simply need justice for Simon, I have to develop the cash for his surgery and that I experience Petland as well as their suppliers ought to be accountable for since the expenses. I also wish to make certain the breeder is held responsible for promoting sick puppies. I actually donot need a different one of Petland's clients or puppies togo through this misery and discomfort
