I feel numb and sick inside like all I want to do is throw up and cry......
Other than my love for my chickens I love my dogs and boxers are my weakness I love them I share my couch with three.
Well I have some friends who also have boxers but they breed thiers for money and thats about it-something I think is just cruel and heartless..she had 3 moms give birth within 4 days of each other totaling 14 pups ( which made her happy since she wants to sell them to get new carpet in livingroom).Well as the moms weaned the pups all the pups went into one room which is closed off so pups got no attention, well one little female was getting overlooked by everyone and was not able to get any food with 13 others being bigger than her,well as the pups started to get sold my friend finally noticed something wrong with the little female called me to see if I could do something for her- I cant say no to a puppy so I went to get her, she was 8 weeks but only the size of a 2 week old nothing but skin and bones unable to walk and was having a hard time holding up her tiny little head.
I took her home cleaned all the fleas and ticks off her and started feeding her gerber baby rice cereal and puppy milk and pedelite, which seemed to be working because on day 3 she was able to stand and walk for about 2 minutes without falling I thought we were on the road to getting better,called vet to set up appointment for her, named her Mime ( Mini Me). Sunday she took a turn for the worse and was not eating or moving just laying in her little bed I got on the floor with her -looked into her little eyes and knew it was coming to an end so I held her kissed her tiny head told her she was a good girl and if she had to leave it was going to be alright, I felt her little body go limp and knew she had left, my hubby took her out found a nice shady spot and buried her I went into the chicken run sat and cried, chickens had no idea why the " treat lady " was there without food but my girl peaches came over stood there for the longest time just watching me like she knew something was wrong.
That little puppy did not have to go through all that if people would not breed thier dogs just for the money and if someone was payng attention she would not have been starving to death, it just makes me sick to think people just dont care, " thier only animals " no they are not they have feeling like we do... sorry had to vent alittle.
Thanks for letting me get this off my chest I have been lost with having Mime to care for she was here only a week but we miss her terriblely.
