I am so distraught. We got our Newfs on Tuesday from a friend of a friend. I kept asking for their medical paperwork and asking if they had any known health problems. They assured me they did not, but didn't have the paperwork.
They are the sweetest dogs but when I brought them to the vets today they said they both had lyme disease and one had hip dysplasia. I don't know what to do. I'm not sure if I should just call the previous owner to return them. We love them, but I don't know if I want to take on a known health problem. The kids will be so upset.
Does anyone have a Newfie with hip dysplasia??
