Update on Benelli…. Big sigh…
So far nothing has explained his weight loss. Lots of bloodwork and all seems fairly normal. Negative f***l. The worst part is the vet says we may just have to wait to see if something comes up because certain cancers show no signs. He had genetic testing before breeding for all the cancers and diseases that Bassets are prone to and that was all negative. I think I am going to do treatment for all possible parasites even though his f***l was negative. If anyone has any other suggestions I would love to hear it.
It just doesn’t make sense when he has been eating the same amount for years that he loses 12 lbs and he looks like he is 12 instead of 6. I will do whatever it takes to help my boy! He is retired from his puppy making days as his son will be taking over when we get a new female.

For all our followers, I have become quite the investigative expert on scammers. You don’t have to get a puppy from me but if you ever question a breeder or site you are interested in, I am always here to help investigate it for you.

Just yesterday I almost fell victim to a scammer. We are purchasing cattle and farm animals for our farm. I am buying a mini highland cow for my daughters. The person seemed legit but the price was a little too good. I got that feeling but they never asked for money, offered me to come see the cows and said all the right things that wouldn’t raise a red flag. I was going to pay deposit when I asked if we could FaceTime or he could send me a video of the cow today. That was when I had him. He sent me a video that he stole from a website. I noticed the tag on the cows ear said Bougie Cattle company. Looked up that company. It was in California. This guy was in Indiana. He claimed he bought the cow from them. He said cow was 3 months old. Well pictures on site are dated and it was well over 3 months old.
So why are you selling a cow you just bought?? Hmmm. I found phone number of the owner of Bougie Cattle Company and called him. He sent me a video of the cow with its new family and he sold the cow for $40,000. Not for $2000 like this guy wanted.
If it makes you stop and say hmmmm, run away fast. Don’t send money. I had an owner from the Harry Potter litter tell me he lost $3000 to a scammer. These people are stealing pics and videos and very convincing.
Beware and I will always look into sites for purchase and adoption if needed

Prayers are needed for Benelli.

We went to vet because I thought he looks like he was losing weight with no diet change and he has pain in his hips. The tears started when I saw he has lost 12 lbs since last appt. X-rays and Lyme test are negative. Anti inflamm helped the muscle pain in hips. But today we had to discuss the weight loss and how he suddenly looks like an old dog and he is turning 6. Bloodwork is next week. When vet said the C word I told her to shush.
Benelli is my everything. He is my dog, my sensitive boy who tells me his feeling every night. Praying it’s nothing and he is just getting his summer body ready!
