This story is so sad & very upsetting. You'd think she'd learn after
paying the ER fee on the pup.
But sadly some people never learn a thing.
My Chi's are guarded by a 100 lb Great Pyrenese. He's had extensive
training in obedience plus
was born in a sheep barn where his parents worked guarding sheep.
Great Pyrs are known as the gentle giants or Gentle Guardians. They'd
give their lives for what ever they are guarding. I bought Samson as a
baby and he grew up with the Chi's, always loving them.
He'll be 1 year old in August.

/*Subject:*/ [Chihuahuas] Upsetting chi story
I was so upset this week, and you will be too when you hear this story.
My daughter is a vet tech in a very busy hospital. A chi breeder had 2
longhaired chi puppies she needed to place into a good home. My
daughter's co-worker took both of them home. After just a few days,
one of the puppies were rushed into the hospital in an emergency
situation. The new owner had left the puppies unsupervised in the yard
along with her large dog, and when she returned, one puppy lay there
having seizures.
After being examined by the vet, it was determined that the puppy had
been attacked by the big dog, puncturing the skull. The puppy had to
be euthanized.
When my daughter shared this info with me, I could hardly stand it!! I
was so upset.
Then the very next week, once again, the second puppy left
unsupervised with the big dog, the new owner came into the home only
to find a lot of blood, and the second little puppy lying there lifeless.
What a tragedy!!! I felt like I was nearing a heart attack hearing
this!! I am still extremely upset.
Just a reminder, not to leave such small dogs unsupervised with larger
dogs or small children. And by the way, this large dog was a Labrador
Retriever. What a tragic ending. Common sense....some people sure lack it.
