I was sent a very sick Bleinhem puppy. Two days after I received him, he was vomiting blood and had blood in his stool. I rushed him to the emergency vet and was told he was extremely sick with Parvo. Parvo is a highly contagious and very dangerous intestinal disease. The doctor and my vet said he was definately sick before he was sent to me!
I immediately called the breeders and told them how sick he was. Their response was to say, send him back and they would give me a new puppy! Dakota would have never been able to survive the plane ride and my son and I were completely attached to him anyway.
He was hospitalized for over a week. He was very sick and I asked the breeder to reimburse me for the price of the puppy - AT LEAST that amount and hopefully more. They declined and refuse to answer my phone calls or e-mails. My vet bills came to over $2000.

My father spoke with them the other day and they stated that there would be no reinbursement but a puppy could be sent. First of all, I am told by my vet that Parvo takes a while to die and having another puppy in my house would not be a smart idea and most importantly - why would I dare take another puppy from them???? Chances are, it might get sick too.
