Sold me an unhealthy puppy for $1725 and then will not help me out with the vet bills totaling over $1500 Ripoff

I purchased a teacup maltese from Christine Smith. Although searching on the internet for pets, I came accross allmaltese.com. I noticed a lady dog, however it just had an outline about the site using the cost of $1400 along with a container having said that "image coming soon". I noticed the image of the male puppy alongside the women explanation and he appeared good, and so I named to obtain more info on the female dog. A guy responded the telephone and stated the feminine was $1600 which she ought to be about 3-4 pounds. I questioned about visiting get your dog of course if that might be an issue. I also informed him that I'd keep in touch with my sweetheart after which call-back. I called back about one hour later to allow him realize that I had been thinking about buying the dog. In the beginning I told him that I needed in the future select the dog up, however questioned him about traveling the dog and he explained that I'd need to delay per week and about 2 times bc it's illegal to travel pets before they're 6 months. I really decided to that bc I didnt need an unhealthy dog. He named me back 5 minute later to inform me that Christine (the breeder) might really generate the dog right down to me possibly on Sunday or Saturday for that same delivery cost of $225. I told her which was good. I subsequently inquired if she'd consider AMEX like a type of payment through paypal and he or she swiftly refused that and stated that she'd just consider american marriage like a type of cost. I'd to contact my sweetheart back again to examine that bc he desired to purchase your dog together with his AMEX and european marriage doesnt get AMEX. We'd a few issues with european marriage simply because they might just consider MC plus they might just let's cable $1000 per month maximum. And also the puppy expenses $1825 whole. Because we were having a lot of issues with cost for that puppy, Christine required $100 of the cost because it costs $80 to cable half the cash. She ultimately arrived to express that people might provide her another $725 when she'd arrive at fall off your dog in California. Arrive Sunday, I named her around 11am to discover what period she'd maintain California. She stated around 6pm or 7pm which she'd contact me when she got towards the FL/GA edge. She named around 5pm that evening when she came in California. She stated that she desired to obtain a accommodation and provide your dog a bathtub bc your dog was filthy in the container your dog was in and thus she'd contact me in about 2 hours for her to wash your dog up to ensure that I really could come get her. She named me at 7pm to express that she was in the Budget Motel on Tennessee St.in Tallahassee, FL, space 103 which I really could come get your dog. Immediatley after coming towards the resort, my sweetheart and that I strolled right into a ciggarette smoke-filled hotel space where the dog was. Therein the area was Christine, a guy (possibly her sweetheart), and her boy was within the toilet. She passed me the dog and also the dog was moist bc she didnt possess a hair dryer to dry the dog after her bathtub. I realized that the dog was coughing a bit aswell. In those days, I had been type of uncertain concerning the entire deal since the dog didnt be seemingly well-taken care of. Christine got out a document having a title of some form of dewormer the puppy continues to be provided, but confirmed no report of every other pictures. Additionally, this is no established record having a veterans trademark or title everywhere onto it. Christine subsequently stated that she "forgot" the puppies AKC registration documents at her home in Tennessee which she'd send them the moment she returned. It actually made me more skeptical after I noticed the birthdate of the dog about the documents also it stated 10/14. The person about the telephone explained the dog wasnt actually 6 months old, but these documents present that she's nearly 2 months old. This made me much more suspicious. Simply because we'd previously Developed Unioned the $1000 and he or she had previously acquired the cash, we went forward and required the dog house and anticipated that everything could be okay using the puppy. Her site claims when we obtain the puppy examined with a vet within 3 business days and send her the documents within thirty days of purchase, that she'll assure the life span of the dog for just one year. We bought the dog from Christine on Saturday 12/10/05 and had the dog examined instantly on Monday 12/12/05. The physician stated that he'd completed a fecal ensure that you the outcomes could be prepared on Tuesday 12/13/05 which she's the start of an upper respiratory disease. He informed us that it okay to consider her house, but to actually view her bc it might get poor and also to provide her in if it deteriorated. On Friday evening after getting her house in the vet, your dog seemed pitiful. She appeared exhausted and really was just starting to cough and wasnt eating and he or she simply looked truly ill. Wednesday morning I introduced her in and also the physician stated that he'd to maintain her there since she really was ill. Later that evening, I visited visit her wishing that she might move house and also the vet explained that she'd gotten worse. I told him that I simply got the dog on Sunday and requested him if there is something that I really could did to trigger this nausea and he explained NO. He explained the upper respiratory disease continues to be there which her issue together with her swollen intestines was from being around different pets and he or she possibly first got it from being round the additional kitten of puppies which were ill too. It was simply the start of nausea for this dog. Daily I sent Christine to provide her an update of the way the dog was performing and her response to every mail was "if your dog is ill and never improving within 24-48 hours, then that dog must be set to rest". I thought she was insane to express that. I told the vet what she recommended and he explained DEFINITELY NOT. The dog wound up remaining in the veterans office from Wednesday thru Friday morning. Friday evening my mother needed to hurry the dog to crisis treatment since she simply dropped limp and wasnt answering. She remained overnight and also the next day we got the dog back again to our vet, by which she remained there-from Sunday morning untill Wednesday morning. We'd go go to the dog daily and he or she seemed terrible. It had been very hard viewing a-1 lb dog look so poor. The sum total vet expenses (without preliminary visit) was about $1586.00. I didnt believe it had been reasonable that Christine offered us a tired dog, and so I sent her the expense of the vet statement and she responded. We DON'T SPEND VET EXPENSES THAT YOU SIMPLY decide to get. She also stated that easily understood your dog was getting ill that I ought to have delivered the dog following the first vet visit. Unfortunatley that's crazy since the dog was in crucial situation and had in regards to a 2-hour window of dying. Im unsure what she anticipated me to complete? Simply allow the dog die after which get another ill dog from her. Definitely not! She still hasn't shipped me the AKC documents that she assured nearly 14 days before. She's not really a healthy breeder and doesn't adhere behind her puppies. She just-so is actually unavailable after I contact and her sweetheart replies the telephone. All I'm requesting is the fact that she assists using the Vet expenses simply because she ailments the dog had was pre existing before I acquired her.
