Cattle Dog Breeder Q&A
Mother dog of 5 week old puppies died of parvo.?
I bought a puppy from a well known austrailan cattle dog breeder. The pup was 5 weeks so i decided to pick it up in a week. The breeder called 2 days later and said the mother got sick and tested positive for parvo. She died. The mother was seperated from the puppies, except at night. The puppies have to be quarantined for 2 weeks. The pups did have their first shot. Do you think these pups will make it?
From what you wrote I understand that you haven't picked up the puppy yet, but that you were waiting another week until it was six weeks old. If the puppy is still ok after the two week quarantine, the breeder should have it tested. The two week quarantine is because that is how long it takes for the virus to incubate.
Despite what you are told, it is possible for a fully vaccinated dog to still get parvo, this is not the first time it has happened. She might even of had some antibodies to it, but if her immune system was compromised, such as having given birth taking a lot out of her and not fully regaining her strength, then being exposed to the virus could have caused her body not to be able to fight back.
The best way to know what happened is to simply ask the breeder to show you the record of the mother's vaccination history. If she is a reputable breeder she will be willing to show you the shot record and then you'll know if it was caused from neglect or one of those freak accidents. Either way she should not have been willing to let the puppies leave until they were at least eight weeks old. The reason being that before that, pups get all their immunities from their mother and it's actually useless to vaccinate before then. Vaccines should not start until eight weeks.
The only way to know if the pups will be ok is too wait and see.

Cattle Dog Breeder Q&A
Did anyone just see Inside Out?
I just saw the issue inside out in relation to a dog breeder named named John Lowe! It has already been banned from breeding dogs, so how can possibly get away with breeding now? Members of the public are buying puppies from the evil person that has no morals, and in a few days, these puppies are dying, no matter what is happening to the parents! Surely there are strict improvement processes in place, as there is with the cattle and sheep, this is completely wrong and all breeders must register! Regardless of race! Your thoughts please on how to stop this!
Stop buying puppies hurt (Farmers) is the only way to stop this disgusting trade in misery canine
