I need advice on dealing with a breeder, can anyone help?

I am trying really hard to contact my breeder, I had to give my dog back to her because he was turning on my kids, my Mom etc... He was 7 months old. And, since I gave him back to the breeder she has not contacted me to let me know how he was doing.

I might add at the same time this wasn't the first dog I got from her, the 1st died at 8 months old of genital heart failure. This was the replacement puppy and he started turning on my mom and kids during the day when my husband and I weren't home.

I don't know what to do.....any suggestions?

Why would the breeder call you about a dog you returned? You've relinquished all responsibility of it, so why would she give you updates? :confused:
Why would you go back to a breeder who breeds dogs with health defects?

Agreed. Cut your ties and your losses and find a better breeder. Better yet, get a rescue pup who's been in a foster home. That way, you'll have a better idea of his/her temperment and behaviour with children before bringing him/her home.

So the dog never turned on you and you never saw it turn on anyone? It only happened when you weren't home?

Why didn't you consult a behaviour specialist before shipping him back?

A puppy or dog should never be allowed alone with children - supervision must occur - and I would have given the puppy a chance!! Puppies bite and chew and all kinds of things that are not nice, just6 like babies actually, which is what they are. I guess I do not underststand why you want info on a puppy you turned in and gave up all rights to.

If you find another breeder, find one that will assist you in learning how to properly socialize a puppy and maybe you will have better luck. What a bite is to a older persion (not sure of your mom's age or a child or anyone for that matter may be nothing more than a nip in reality.)

You might try fostering to see how that goes so you can get used to how to care for a dog before accepting the many responsiblities of a young puppy.
