Coleen. I don't want to stir the pot and I would have done as you did and gone to the vet. But the vet and the surgery was a choice. And I wouldn't expect a breeder to pay for it. I would, however expect a full and prompt refund with shipping covered.
Well it sure was not ME who caused the situation. The seller sent the turtle like this. a turtle what was NOT the type i ordered. I asked the vet's office afterward how much it would cost for me, as a new patient to euthanize the turtle had i decided to do that. it would have cost me $210. SO either way, i was screwed. I sure as heck was not going to allow the turtle to suffer. i was put into this situation by the seller who either did this on purpose to get rid of an unwanted animal, or if he didn't do it on purpose, he sure as heck does not seem to pay attention to an animal he shipped out.
