Hello from Grand Rapids, MI!

[Rcfslp]

Tomorrow is the big day! The little/not for long girl is coming home! So excited...not too much for the drive to get her though, but it's well worth it!!!

How old will the pup be when you pick her up? I'm a little confused by the dates given in your other posts....

 

[YorkvilleNewfie]

Has her heart been cleared?

 

[Rcfslp]

She would've been just over eight weeks when I picked her up today (born Nov 27th) but she was dropped right before I drove the three hours to get her and it looks like they might have to put her down! I'm horrified! I was promised the pick of the litter that is due in two weeks, and delivered to my door, but it just isn't the same. All of the breeders dogs/pups r heart and hip certified and guaranteed....made sure of that...even talked to the vet. So...,I'm just gonna say a prayer for the poor thing and wait I guess.

OMG that is awful, whatever happened that she got dropped? Praying she will be all right.

Her 12-year-old granddaughter....after being told not to handle the puppies...dropped her!!!! The breeder was clearly shaken. It is just awful, awful, awful!!!

Rcfslp: please check your PMs.

This doesn't sound right.... A 12-year-old should not drop a Newf, and it should not have to be put down if it (at 8 weeks) were dropped. Of course I could be wrong, but I wonder if they sold it to a higher bidder. This just reminds me of a bad experience I had with a Michigan breeder years ago.

Any more info?

Does sound a wee bit odd to me as well, Terri.

Any news?
