leethedog 3,071 Posted June 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2016 There is more to this than I am prepared to post on a open forum people may judge all they like it means nothing to me your judgement . I posted about this to gauge how common it is if the guy who bred and gave me the dog is ok with the decision made then that is all that matters to me 1 Quote Link to post

skycat 6,174 Posted June 16, 2016 Report Share Posted June 16, 2016 P.t.s the cheapest option Probably about a quarter of what it would cost to spay a bitch. Maybe less. 1 Quote Link to post
HPR 1,161 Posted June 16, 2016 Report Share Posted June 16, 2016 You wouldn't of even needed to spay the bitch . Unless it's really really bad . Only need to keep it clean . And some times have a bit of tissue cut away so they can pee . Quote Link to post

And some times have a bit of tissue cut away so they can pee . Yes so I'm told by others as well as you I did speak advice from breeder and from another terrierman before going to the vet both of which had never seen it and both told me the same thing get her to a vet asap so that is what I did I had never seen it before and the vet told me it was spay or pts .hence my previous post vets love the coin this is the last I'm gonna post on the subject people who want to judge me please carry on its fine by me Edited June 17, 2016 by leethedog 1 Quote Link to post
Mary 352 Posted June 17, 2016 Report Share Posted June 17, 2016 This is why nobody in the dog game tells the truth, people come out the woodwork to hammer yea, if he wasn't happy to keep the dog with the given condition then he done the right thing, he didn't come on here looking for advice, he consulted the breeder and other local terrier men and made a decision, end of. Too many know it all types on here. 4 Quote Link to post
Bestabout21 66 Posted June 17, 2016 Report Share Posted June 17, 2016 I know the man well an coin got nothing to do with his choice he's dose all he can for his dogs so he must ov done it for the rigth reason he only wanted to see if [NO TEXT TALK] else have come across this not have he made the rigth choice 1 Quote Link to post
fat man 4,741 Posted June 17, 2016 Report Share Posted June 17, 2016 Lee if your bitch was as good as you say i cant for the world understand why you pts.The other dog you have JOE you have said that it does not look like he is going to make a digging dog as he has come away or failed to find or something along them lines and your bitch pup may not either[hope she does] so what possessed you to pts a bitch that was doing the buisness even if you could not have bred of her she was a worker.Have you still got the Joe dog as you will hardly put him across a bitch seeing that he is not reliable,in reality all you are left with is the bitch pup.Lee it was your choice and it was your buisness but i reckon you made a big boo boo. 6 Quote Link to post

Too many know it all types on here. Its not too many know alls its the fact that those of us that have been breeding and working terriers for a very long time actually "care" for the stock we produce or keep, I hate to see suffering but Lee had options so in my mind anyone that can callously PTS a bitch as easily as that would not spend too much time looking for his terrier when its slipped to ground, I've said it many times on here that he is green as grass and gullible in the least, the biggest surprise for me was when "Foxdropper" (a man of years in the game) was prepared to give him a pup, that would be a big mistake imo and at least 10 years too soon, its like passing your test then buying a Ferrari, I love all my dogs like my children and they are treated as such and in reply they give me everything,never questioning anything I ask of them,without the bond we have nothing, so the least I can do is see they get care when its needed, WM Quote Link to post
steve t 1,023 Posted June 17, 2016 Report Share Posted June 17, 2016 Theres plenty of working bitches around that will never be bred from and are dug regularly, brood bitches need to be the best of the best, and if theyre good enough to be bred from but cant for some reason they should still give many years top class digging. 3 Quote Link to post

Squirrel_Basher 17,100 Posted June 18, 2016 Report Share Posted June 18, 2016 Get a second opinion from another vet and not make hasty decision .what's done is done and will make the lad think a bit in the future . 3 Quote Link to post
gnipper 6,543 Posted June 18, 2016 Report Share Posted June 18, 2016 What makes them prolapse then? Being in season or being mated? Quote Link to post
dillydog 8,469 Posted June 18, 2016 Report Share Posted June 18, 2016 We've all got regrets, I once put a very good bitch down after a trip to the vets, she said she had cancer in her ear. The vet stunk of drink and could only just stand up, you take the word of these pricks as gospel and a huge percentage of the time they've no more idea than you. 4 Quote Link to post
