I advertised for a little dog to take walks with me, a couple got in touch and said they were wanting to rehome theirs as they now had a young crawling baby, and didnt want her pulling at it,they lived about 30 miles away and said they would fetch her for me to see if she was suitable,i did specify the dog must get on with cats,
They brought her and said she lived with a cat, and if not rehomed would have to be pts
They brought her a little terrier type Yorkshire terrier x,
They told me they had got her from a rescue at around 6 months okd ,that she had been found wandering ,matted and with kennel cough, i asked if i could have her on trial for a week, to see realy how she was with the cats and them with her, as thy hd never seen a dog before
Anyway all went well and i decided before the week was up that i would keep her
She had had no vaccinations so i got that done along with a health check
Last week i took her for her booster and about a skin rash
I also asked about her eyes, 1 looked very cloudy, she has the beginnings of a cataract
The vet, different one this time asked her age, i said about 5 as i have had her for 2 years, and was told she was 3,
The vet said, im sorry but you were lied to, shes about 9 or 10
I was so upset, because i knpow i might not have her as ong as i thought, i did say in my ad,i didnt mind an older dog,due to my age too
She is lovely, and i felt a bit guilty for taking her on long walks,just dont understand why they lied,i would have still had her,but shes very loved and spoiled
