Introducing Lola (Sharpei Puppy)

this is Lola my daughters new Puppy.

I am totally against her having this pup because of Roxy...

but kids don't listen and i just hope and pray that it doesn't go Tits up with this one. i have told them the disadvantages of owning a Sharpei health wise, and the vet will love them because most of their money will be on vet fees etc etc. any way i had been banging my head against a brick wall because they still went and bought her for
£600.00
she is gorgeous tho but all puppies are

Aww bless
I'm sure i read somewhere, Sharpeis are hard to get insurance for due to their health problems

yeh your right Lynn it's going to cost them the earth for this pup

Aww it's a shame they went out and bought a pup.. could they not have homed Zelda?
Apologies if this post is out of order, no offence meant

Lets hope it works out ok for them.

no offence taken Lynn
i would never have let them have Zelda hun, in fact with their track record if i had any say in the matter, i wouldn't let them have a hamster (oops they did it lasted 2 weeks)
i nearly fell out with them over this pup but i have to think of my grandkids, so i'm learning to keep my gob shut not easy i can tell you

what are the health issues with a sharpei? is it skin problems?

hope it works out Karen, its a lovely pup. It must be killing you keeping yer gob shut!!

Beautiful pup Karen, as you say all pups are but Lola is a stunner

Hope it doesn't go tits up hun, I know how hard it will be for you if it does


We bring our children up but when they are adults they will not take much notice of us just believing we are naggers and can't see it from their prospective

Awww what a cutie

Hope all goes well for them. My mum has a sher pei cross and i can confirm they are very expensive pets, Tyson has been in and out the vets none stop his whole life. When Tyson was about that age he had 3 ops on his eyes as their eyelids start to grow inside their eye so keep a look out. Plus he kept getting cauliflower ears, they would fill up with blood.
Sorry to sound so much like a bummer but thought i'd mention this just incase they didnt know. I do think he did have more problems than the average sher pei because his mum was an ex breeding bitch with numerous health problems. The owner of the mum didnt realise Tysons mum and her other dog had mated and that Tysons mum was pregnant. We only took Tyson on because dad know his mums owner and they were just gonna give Tyson to a kennels. I do hope they dont have these problems tho
