Urgent advice needed re DOG
Took boys shopping this morning, pet shop full of lab/collie cross pups.
One has obvious rectal prolapse, and was highly distressed trying to poo, heartbeat raised, very upset. Told pet shop owner, said would take pup to vet. We stuck around for 3 hours and pup was still in window.
WHO do we report this to??? Council, does not regulate pet shops
rang refuge for info but closed for day now. Cant get it out of mind, pup left like this will probably die a bloody painful death, this pet shop thing is so wrong, but who do I report this to?
Anyone?????

Re: Urgent advice needed re DOG
Thanks for the brisbane no, had been searching for a maroochydore/noosa number or something, couldnt find it, as its listed as Cooloola branch, would never have searched on that.
They do have an inspector, who will go and have a look if anythings been done yet, thats vital in the case of prolapse, treatment ASAP can make all the difference. Just hope the RSPCA dont have to put the poor thing down, he was in a pretty bad way and that was hours ago now. Awful day cant get things like that out of my mind easily. Guilt if you do nothing guilt if you do.

How about naming and shaming the shop in a letter to the local paper!
