I reported earlier 11/12 & 11/14 about ongoing medical problems with the Newfoundland pup we rec'd. At our vet check up 12/6 we were told that the ongoing reason the pup was having problems was due to sarcoptic mange. That this would have to come from the kennel because of how young the puppy is and now we have to treat our older 10 year old dog who's never had such problems as well as the entire house. Needless to say, we're up to almost 1,000 dollars now between multiple medications that have to be given 2-3 times a day, vet visits, shots that weren't given appropriately or by veterinarians, special feed because she's still slightly underweight and shots for illness. Furthermore they were making some contacts regarding the running of a puppy mill simply because they were so upset by the ongoing medical problems.
We've tried contacting the breeder and have received no response, we contacted the AKC looking for the agent Mrs. Harmon listed to no avail. There is a vet listed in the area with the name from the "health certificate" we rec'd but our vet says it's not worth the paper it's printed on. Furthermore, in pursuing more research it seems that complaints are lodged against both her and her husband for various online companies. The really sad part is that I rec'd recommendations to go there... And apparently there is little care for either the animals, particularly these poor puppies who are/were being eaten alive by mites.
