"DR DEATH SUMS IT UP" Another Dr. Nolte Story

"On Oct. 20, 2008 I took my 0ne week old Pitbull puppies to Dr. Nolte for examination.

He examined all six puppies and said they are in good health. He gave them suppose to be dewormer but who know's what it was because two hours later all six puppies died at the same time. DR DEATH SUMS IT UP!!!!!!!!!!!!

Find another line of work."

Since you are breeding dogs, it might be wise to educate yourself about the process.

As a responsible breeder of purebred dogs for the past 20 years, I can honestly say that I have no idea why you would take one week old puppies to be dewormed, nor can I imagine a vet even doing it.

Pups see a vet (unless you know how to do this yourself) to have dewclaws removed between days 1 and 3 after whelping.

They are NOT given any dewormer at one week old. Most get their first dewormer at the age of three-four weeks.

I have used Dr. Nolte in the past and although I've had no problems (it's all been for minor things/shots), I won't go back after all the horror stories i've heard. Not to mention the condition of the zoo animals, I took my child to the zoo and saw the deer with what i'm assuming is a tumor or something and it was awful!!! The zoo was in bad shape in general though, it was not the clean zoo i am used to, it was dirty and overgrown in spots. Very disappointing.

8:18 Why would you take your puppies to Dr. Death after everything you had previously read on SBY News???? Dumb.Dumb.Dumb!

Who on earth takes there 1 week old puppies to the vet for anything as long as they are healthy? I have never heard of such. What does the overgrown in spots and dirty zoo have to do with a vet? As far as the deer with the tumor..are you a vet? Do you know if the treatment is correct? You all pass judgement with no knowledge.

OMG I thought one week was too early for deworming too but the vet should have known that.I am so sorry about your dogs.

i was saying the zoo was in poor condition just as an aside. In that I was disappointed when I saw the deer but I was also disappointed in general with the whole condition of the zoo. No, i'm not a vet but I would imagine that there has to be something that could be done for it. Have you seen it?

I thought I only called him that. We had a beloved horse that Dr. Death came to put down. He gave her shots and said it was enough to put down an elephant. Well 6 hours later after many unanswered calls to him, we had to shoot her because of her going into seizures.

First we don't breed, Second we didn't know all these things about him til last night when we were doing research. The reason we took the puppies in was only for a check up. Yes, He gave them something but it wasn't dewormer because it was clear like water. He said he gave them Nemex dewormer which is yellow and milky like.

If you don't breed, how did you get puppies? ;)

And there are wormers that are clear. Ivomec is just one.
