Read this entire thread. My heart goes out to you and your wife. Also to your poor noodle that had a difficult life. Some lessons come hard and some even harder. Thanks for sharing. As someone who takes rescues in, I never know what I am getting till I see it for myself and almost always fallow up with a vet visit right away. For me the vet visit is as much peace of mind as preparing to care for any issues the animal might have. Quality of life vs longevity?
Some will troll me for the fallowing:
The guy should be out of business. With that being said, here is my 2 cents. You now have the animal and the commitment made to the animal to provide for care of it for however long or short of life it may have. Sure learning a $500 lesson is difficult. Someone has to be responsible for what needs to be done for the poor guy. Even if it means loosing the $500. Sending him back would be irresponsible and inhumane to the animal.
Live, learn, grow, and always love.
Sincerely,
Animal lover and advocate,
Sky
