My Physics teacher loves GSDs and was talking to her neighbor who's dog just had a litter of GSD pups. Mrs. H says they are "show" breeders, but I highly doubt they are reputable as she told me, "I mean, they PTS any dog that doesn't have the right coat color. That's how much of a show breeder they are." Not only that, but they don't have homes lined up for the puppies.
The pups are currently six weeks old and they've noticed that one of the puppies has no joints in its hind legs. Its hind legs are stiff as a board. Other than that it is a normal puppy and it has learned to get around by doing a hop of sorts.
If the pup can't find a home within a week or two, Mrs. H said her neighbors were going to have it put down. She asked me to look around to see if I knew of anyone who would take the puppy.
I'm not sure if the breeders would be open to a GSD rescue or not, but I'm sure it is worth a shot. Does anyone know of a GSD rescue or someone who would be willing to adopt a disabled pupper around the Lafayette, Indiana area?
**My backup plan is that if the "breeder" (gah, that ticks me off so much ) can't place the pup, I'm going to take it and house it at PawPrints (were I work). I can board it there until I can find a home for it/rescue to take it in and I can get the vets' opinion on it as well (for free. Being and employee there is so nice. ).
