[Gpdd] RE: RESCUE: or at least an attempt

Cheryl,

YOu should contact Pet Supplies Corporate Office in regards to this issue. 
They take things seriously like this. My husband worked for one of these 
stores for years as a manager and their corporate is very strict in taking 
care of issues like this. But he's much happier running his own business now 
though with a partner for sure. They are more likely to look into something 
if you complain and tell them what store, where it's located and the manager 
you spoke with let me tell you. However, they will do something more likely 
than the bigger chains like Petco and Petsmart trust me on this issue. Good 
luck, let us know if you get some type of response.  YOu can find the 
corporate info online I'm sure.


Good luck,

Alicia VanMaanen

Earlier today I was at a Pet Supp;ies Plus (pet store) and saw a baby piggy
having trouble breathing.
I talked to the manager of the store and tried to buy the baby, after I had
pointed out that he/she is sick with an upper respiratory infection.  He
refused to sell it to me and said he would get it "taken care of tomorrow".
I wanted to buy it and get it to a vet at once.  I have already nursed one
piggy back to health (URI) and know if they delay treatment it could kill
the baby.

Oh, btw, my name is Cheryl and I have been a lurker here since I got 2
guinea pigs 3 months ago, at the most.  I enjoy the GPDD very much.  I
wonder if there was anything else I could have done for this baby guinea
pig.
