I reread what you wrote. If keeping up to just the expense of everyday life has become a major problem for you, then, perhaps you should consider not breeding any more litters. As much as you may like having puppies, it really isn't fair to the Chihuahuas.
I don't know what State you live in, but many States have a Puppy Lemon Law. So if the new owner decides the pursue the matter, you may legally be responsible for the vet bills on this sick puppy that you sold. It will depend on if the pup was ill before the purchase (as you did indicate in your original post). As for the matter of the pup also possibly having a congenital problem, I'm surprised that an owner of just 5 days wouldn't want to return it for a full refund ASAP. Something is off there. In this situation, the return of the pup seems to be the best solution for everyone. Except for maybe the Chihuahua baby. The best thing for that pup would be to remain with whoever can love & take the best care of it. Meanwhile, I hope all the puppies from this litter - with you or in new homes - all manage to get better and go on to live long, healthy lives. Liz AS far as heat.....at these temps, my bill is already near 400 a mo....if I was a byb and making a killing off these dogs I maybe could raise it and pay the 1000 a mo it would cost me to keep it on say 70, but since I do NOT make any money on my pups, I, like everyone else in this economy, am doing the best I can......
