His pictures are in the gallery. When we bought Pepper, we were naive and gullible and believed him to be a cocker spaniel. We didn't care that he wasn't registered. He wasn't going to be bred or be a show dog. We just wanted a companion for my disabled husband. Someone to keep his spirits up. Right away there were problems. First, Pepper got very sick when he had his puppy shots. They told us that he was sensetive to them and had to split them up and take benedryl before, during and after each shot. Then, the kept getting sick. Every little thing caused him to run fever and vomit. We were at the vets office every week at least once. The first time we got him groomed, he came home with a horrible rash. That freaked us out. He had to have shots to get rid of it. Soon he had his first ear infection. That took ear drops. It was just one thing after another. The second time we had him groomed, he developed a rash all over- anywhere the clippers touched. We had to give him antibiotics and steroid shots to get rid of it and we never could quite get it. Finally, it got so bad that our doctor referred us to a dermatologist. By now, the doctor told us that we couldn't get him groomed. In fact, no groomer would touch him, so I had to take the grooming over myself. It was during that time that we realized that something was wrong...our Pepper wasn't a cockerspaniel, he was a cockapoo. Now, I could have dealt with him being a cockapoo in the beginning. He was a sweet baby, and so loveable. But to blatenly lie to us, that was just wrong. Still, we would have bought him anyway. He is our sweet Pepper, our baby. Who couldn't love him? Not a soul. We couldn't afford the dermatologist, so I had taken over his grooming, making sure he was clean, brushed, and that all his sores were treated with antibiotic ointment. Well, it didn't matter because it all got out of control. His back is fully broke out, his nose is in badddd shape, covered in sores. His neck has raw spots on it, and his ears hurt him. So we took him back to the vet today to ask for some help. He has a staff infection all over his back, he has demadex mange on his neck and nose, and a double ear infection. The doctor said that he has no immune system. I am just heartbroken, and so angry at the woman who bred so irresponsibly and then lied about it. I have no way of finding her. I have tried. My poor baby suffers daily because of this evil woman. I wish they would make people apply for liscenses in order to breed. Does anyone else have a sick cockapoo that they could give me tips on how to make his life better. He is still just a baby. thanks, Kim -- Insanity: Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
