Well they couldn't wait *mad*

I hate to say it but told you! lol.

sorry. no matter how much you like to help people out, just by how you were wording it and saying it about his personality, its not worth it - let it go.

he'll be in a shelter in a few months, then you can 'help the animals'.

My old neighbors also got their pug from an Amish farm. He's the most adorable, sweetest little boy but immediately developed severe eye problems, to the point they had to take him to an opthamologist and still have to medicate his eyes everyday. His poor little knees get dislocated. Poor little guy. What a pity your brother wanted a pug so badly he didn't take your advise or research anything. *Sigh*. As much as you don't want to, maybe for the sake of the poor dog, you should go over and see it. Another *sigh*.

I did, I went last night. The thing is very cute & I fell in love (come on it's not the puppy's fault, besides how can you not like a puppy) but I'm afraid it's a pretty bad speciman. I don't think the hernia was taken care of properly, you can see the scar but there's still a lump that feels like a hernia not scar tissue (If I can remember correctly from 4 years ago). I don't know but I *thought* unless it's an emergency than usually most vets wait a little longer to operate on hernias???? She seems really small for her age of 8-10 weeks. The lump on the neck is from vaccines supposably, it's been there for weeks, I don't think it will go away. The nose is REALLY pushed in, so much so that the nose is actually an indent in the face (although I think that it may just fit breed standards but can be hazardous to this puppy becuase of the ativity level of the family). She also looks like she'll have major dental problems, I think that actually a couple/few teeth may not even ever come in. And her underbite is major. I'm not sure about the dogs structure either, it could just be because she's still a puppy but it just doesn't look right when she walks, her joints, mainly on her right side have a strange movement to them that I am unsure of. Her eyes are pertruding a lot too, you can't even wipe the eye bugers off her face without wiping her eyes too. She has very dirty ears & a couple fleas.
I know a lot of these problems are even semi-common in even some well bred pugs but her problems seem much worse than that.

Well I went over with them again on what a properly bred pug should be like, and showed them the comparisons & my thoughts about the puppy's health & possibly future problems and of course not to breed her. I'll continue with bugging them not to breed but I think I'm done with helping them with any of the problems this puppy may have or encounter. I already spent a year telling & showing them & now I told them again what to expect & what I thought. They didn't listen for the entire year & if they don't listen this one last time then they are out of luck.

She still has no name and dumb me forgot my camera. She is a cute friendly puppy though.
