Complaint Review: Petland

I purchased a l0 week old puppy from Petland in Arlington Heights, IL on l0/l5/05. He appeared healthy. I took him to the vet two days later as recommended on the contract I signed, which was a mistake. She told me he was fine, checked a stool sample and two days after that he was dead.

Petland is trying to wiggle their way out of this one making up some story that he had mushrooms in the vomitis. I ordered a necropsy and it came back inconclusive. The pathologist asked why the vet did not send any mushroom samples to be tested if that is what she was sure he died from. I found a website and was helped by Kim who told me to find a stool sample and take it to an independent vet. I did and they tested his stool at a lab and it tested positive for PARVO.

PETLAND is trying hard to wiggle out of this one. Those murderous liars are contributing to the puppy mills industry. Do not buy a pet from a pet store.

Especially Petland. They should be shut down and jailed in a small dirty cage with no food and water like these poor innocent animals they abuse. I will see them in court and they will lose.
