  • OH MY GOD. I am literally SO pissed at reading this I can not TYPE fast enough. First of all, you purchased a puppy from someone SO incredibly irresponsible it makes me sick to my stomach! This was a clear example of some terrible breeder that wanted their money and wanted the puppy out of their house. First of all no responsible breeder gives up their puppies before 8 weeks, even 12 weeks is better. Let alone, your telling me a 7 week old puppy is not eating solid food yet at all???!!!! This breeder didn't even make an attempt to weak them on solid food and now you have to do it cold turkey, that is just GREAT on the digestive system. I would LOVE for you to give me this person's email because I have words for them....seriously.

    First of all, your new baby should have been vaccinated at 6 weeks with a parvo shot, which you got ripped off sincerely and is incredibly dangerous. Now dont take him anywhere beside the vet, and even than in your OWN container and blanket, don't even put him on the table. Have him vaccinated and dewormed RIGHT NOW! Or tomorrow! Do not take him ANYWHERE until he has had at least 3 parvo vaccines, if you have a secure yard that no sick pets have been in, that is OK. Secondly, its not HARD to separate mother from puppies if she was sick of them, so for him to have made you come and get this puppy was complete bull shit I have to tell you, excuse my language. They just didn't want to deal with them anymore. You can give the puppy a bath, but better yet get a warm wash cloth and wipe him down for now. Wash him in a couple weeks. He is going to be very sad without his siblings and he will cry in his crate but try your best to ignore it but take him out two or threw times during the night to potty, either on a pad or outside in a safe yard.

    As for food get a puppy dry kibble (im still so angry right now!) and get some goats milk (found in walmart with the canned milk) and mix the kibble in with the goats milk, warm it briefly and bled it really good. He has teeth and can probably chew, but because you god awful poor excuse for a breeder didnt help you with this, you have to do it on your own. Feed that to him 3-4 times a day, while gradually decreasing the amount of blending until he is used to eating solid kibble.

    I am truly sorry you had to come on here to ask other people what to do because you purchased a baby from someone who truly does not care, it should not be that way. Feel free to text me at 702-741-7805 with more questions or concerns and next time really look hard at who you buy a puppy from because you should not even have these questions leaving with your puppy. My puppies leave eating solid food and vaccinated, they go home with something of the scent of home and a bag of the food they have been eating. My new puppy owners have my number and I would answer the phone at 2 am to answer any questions they had. This is just terrible!!! Sorry for the drama I just get so bothered by things like this.
  • Was your puppy skinny when you got him? Wonder how much milk he was actually getting from mom.
  • Thank u Zerlett for the info... i will be taking him in the morning to get a vaccine... i did buy some food Royal canin puppy food, hard and soft, he was able to eat the dry food, i watched him do so. but i will do the goat milk feeding tomorrow, I did wipe him down and got the feces off, then wrapped him up with a blanket i bought, to get him warm again. 
  • Sharkjet the puppy isnt skinny, he has weight on him..

    That's sad. I knew from your original post this puppy was from a puppy mill or BYB when you were left in the dark on questions and concerns that the breeder should have already discussed with you. In my response to your first post I explained about shots that should have been provided at 6 weeks of age. It's apparent this breeder didn't even have the puppies seen by a Vet. I guarantee they are loaded with worms and need immediate deworming meds. If the momma was good to the pups for the entire 7 weeks that she had them she would still be good with them. As Danielle explained, he's simply lying because he know longer wants to take care of the puppies now that they are older and require a lot more time and energy.

    Danielle provided you with some good advice. You
    will be lucky if this Bullie doesn't have any health issues now and in
    the future.

    There's too many BYB's out there with no care what
    so ever with the dogs they breed. It's all about money. But I'm willing
    to bet this puppy wasn't even AKC and was most likely selling puppies
    for cheap prices.

    Good luck with your dog. Now that he's in your hands and safe you may want to do your breeder a favor and call him and let him know he's an idiot and shouldn't be breeding. I can't imagine what the mother looks like after nursing for 7 weeks to Big hungry Bull Terriers. She must be drained, weak, and completely raw on her belly from puppy nails and teeth. Very sad. Even more sad is the fact she most likely be pregnant in 6 months and having to go through it again.

    You should be asking this breeder to pay your Vet bills. You're going to have a pricey bill with the amount of treatment you'll need to get this puppy healthy as he should.

    By chance, did you spend some time with BOTH parents of this litter?

  • he looks very cute as most puppies do. but what did the parents look like?
  • I've seen the mother and the father the mother was all white, with no black, and the father was all white no black... so i would think grandparents had black on them... for over all what i have seen is that the parents look like real bull terrier, he told me that the father has papers AKC and he showed them to me today, when i went to talk with him about giving me some money back, he did, because i wanted a full REFUND, after what you guys was telling me on here... the female does not have papers, but she looks as good as the dad...

    Are you saying you do NOT have any AKC registration papers for your puppy?

    It's not well recommended to breed two solid white Bull Terriers together especially from unreputable bloodlines. Often this is how deafness becomes more and more populated. I'm glad to see some colored markings on your puppy.

    Danielle's remark was ditto on what I would have said. It's hard not to fall in love with any Bull Terrier puppy because they're all cute. I'd love to see some photos of the puppies.

  • Im glad you got some money back! It was well deserved! Way to go for making him fess up even a little to his terrible situation he put you in!
  • Your pup is adorable make sure to socialize early on....
    Your actions speak so loudly I cannot hear your words.
  • cute pup. sucks about the breeder.  terrible.  
  • Hey guys i had a question.... Every time i pick up my bt puppy i see small tiny bugs on him like they are under his fur crawling around. so i pick them out his fur and kill it.... I think there ticks i think, what do you guys think? and what could i use to stop them from being on him...
  • Probably fleas I would use dawn dish soap for bathing and go to the vet for a preventative ...
    Your actions speak so loudly I cannot hear your words.
  • a tick would be buried and stationary  in the dogs skin and the ticks body will fill up with blood. sounds like you got the common flea
  • BulliesofNCBulliesofNC Richlands, NC
    I concur with Leslie. Sounds like your puppy has fleas. Small little bugs that jump quickly when you try and grab them. They're tough too, hard to kill even when pinched between your fingers. As Leslie suggested - Bath him in dawn which is mild and will kill the fleas currently on him.

    fontana666 is correct, ticks wont be crawling around. They'll find a spot and latch on.

    You mentioned before that you planned on taking him to the Vet for his long overdue vaccinations. Didn't the Vet notice the fleas? Could be that the breeder bathed the puppy killing the fleas but leaving the eggs that recently hatched or you have fleas in your house or yard that you didn't know about.
