On 11/18/07, I bought a papillon for my daughter for her birthday/Christmas gift. When I bought her, she weighed 1.5 pounds. Three weeks later she had a runny stool and occasionally there would be blood in the stool. On 1/08/08, I came home from work and she was lying down and I thought she was dead. A few minutes later my daughter hears her whining and she could not get up. The vet said she was seizing. She tried to save little Daisy, and she finally got her warm because by the time I got to the vet with her she was nearly dead. The vet said she had a bad heart and would never lead a normal life. She called Ms. Adams at the store and Ms. Adams said she personally checks all the dogs herself. So the vet is mailing her the findings and I'm going back to the store to argue my case.

The vet bill came to $158.00 but the vet said it could run higher just to keep her alive. It is a sad thing to have to explain to a child that her dog has to be put to sleep because it has a birth defect.
