Sick puppy from a pet store

 
Russos Pet Expirience
Fashion Island Mall
Newport Beach, Ca
US

today is a very sad day for me . Me and my Fiance bought a 8 week old Siberian Husky puppy from Russos Pet Expirience pet store in the Fashion Valley mall in Newport Beach. The first day we bought him home he had a bad case of diarrhea . We took him to 2 different vets paid over $500.00 and he was on medication for 2 weeks . His diarrhea changed different colors everyday and they he started to vomit water . We took him back to the pet store today and the owner said that theres nothing wrong with him and basically instead of treating his serious sickness they were going to re-sell him to someone else. They gave the dog a sleeping pill so he would be quiet because he was so sad that he wasnt home anymore . They are sick people who run that store. The vet talked to the owner on the phone and he kept saying the dog is perfectly fine but in fact he wasnt he had an upset stomache everyday . He wasnt willing to take the dog back , then after we told him we have the time and money for a lawyer he started returning the money on the credit card. The dog was sitting in the car with us for an hour and at the pet store for another hour they didnt give him water as i explain to him he has diarrhea and he could become dehydrated . It was 2 o clock , the lady looked at me and said he will get water at 4 when its "feeding time" . This pet store doesnt care about their animals only to charge thousands of dollars and make money for themselves. I am so sad to give back such a beautiful puppy . The owner was also telling us that all huskies have diarrhea when they are puppies which i belvie is not true or else every puppy information web site wuld mention it as a warning and give some advice on treatments .

Your puppy probably came from a puppymill where the dogs are treated as a crop and not living things. Oprah just did a show on puppymills a week or two ago that pretty much summed up where these puppies come from. There is inbreeding and small cages that help spread disease, which is probably what your puppy had. I'm sorry it was so sick but I hate to think what happened to it after you gave it back.
