Caffeitina - the breeder sold Ivy to another owner, and it was THAT owner that treated Ivy so badly.

The breeder did NOT want Ivy to go back there.

If Buttercup wants to talk to her vet about just treating symptoms, then it might be worth keeping Ivy, and keeping him on a med or two.

I can't see the breeder having Ivy shipped all the way back to her just to have Ivy PTS. Makes no sense.
