i got myself a puppy some months ago and he got anemic after 2 days in my home.it was not due to malnutrition or any desease.i immediately took him to the vet( many vets actually) but could not find the reason .that means he had no desease of any kind and i am sure he did not eat anything which lead to anemia.after a 12 day treatment with fluids and other support meds,he took his last breath. rip tobi.and we were all left in confusion and shock.
now, during his treatment period, many people told me to euthanize him (which i kept denying and the idea of it irritated me). the reason they gave me was "a puppy who have suffered anemia in early days would not be able to live a normal life even when cured.not even with any supplements or best diet".
i wanted to ask if this reason was correct?i would not have euthanized him even if it was correct though but i am still curious.what problems could a puppy possibly face growing up if he ever had anemia or desease in his puppyhood and got cured?have you ever heard to a similar case and what was the outcome?
