Poor little puppy!
I'm convinced our new puppy was neglected.
Ah yes, not everyone knows yet! Yup, we got a new puppy. We've had her for about 2 weeks now, and she's 6 months, almost 7 months old. She's a pug (yup, another! I love them just a little too much, can you tell? ^_^)
Anyway, the girl we got her from posted this thing on the facebook marketplace, saying she was giving away her pug puppy for free. When we took her home, she was so incredibly skinny. Not just she's-a-puppy skinny, but we could almost see her ribs. Puppa seems HUGE compared to her! Also she had a scar on her eye, and I'm convinced she's half blind. She had no collar either, and also had fleas. Only a few, but Puppa caught them so we had to give both pugs flea baths, and we got flea collars for all three of the dogs. They're fine now.
The girl said that she'd send us the papers saying she had all her shots. It's been two weeks since she gave her to us and still no papers. Now we'll have to take her to have it done. Luckily my mom said she'll help with the shots, and I've saved up enough to get her spaded. That's another thing. The girl never had her spaded because her vet told her to wait until she was 8 months. No vet has ever told us that. We were told 6 months, I read 6-7 months. If you don't there will be a problem. I don't want a pug walking around the house bleeding.
I'm worried some people will say "Why the hell did you get a dog from some random person? Why didn't you go to a pro breeder or pet store?" Well those reasons are why. If that girl didn't have her spaded yet and if she didn't have her shots, it's making me believe she was neglected. The fleas, the scar on her eye. Our dogs never had fleas. Well, Sammy once from one of our neighbors dogs years ago, but other than that never. There's a reason I heard about her so quick. And I took her in. I was meant to help her.
And now she's my incredibly cuddly baby! ^_^ I love my Katie!
