Zoorama RIPOFF BUYER BEWARE of ZOORAMA sick puppies ill-tempered Bronx New York
Buyer Beware for animal purchase from Zoorama in Bronx NY. Bought a Siberian Husky named Broady from Harsha Perera on December 23 as a christmass gift. The dog after 1 days became agggressive and ill-tempered towards the family. In fear for the safetly fo the family, we took him to the doctor and we were informed to take the dog back due to temper problems and if not will bite again and have to be put to sleep.
Harsha Perera, store owner, did not want to take the dog back and after even talking to the breeder of the dog and agreeing that he will take the dog back from the pet store but not from us(Not being legal).
We love the dog and will give him to a rescue for huskies in order to get the proper help. Nothing can give back the holiday or the loss we feel for our dog. PLEASE DON'T BE TRICKED

Ever Try The Pound? Puppies will always find homes, but what about the dogs that are in the pound due to irresponsible owners?

I know puppies are cute and everything, but did you ever consider adopting a dog from the pound? You could have made sure the dog gets along with everyone in your family, not to mention save the dog's life. Puppies will always find homes, but what about the dogs that are in the pound due to irresponsible owners?
And yes, I do believe huskies are very much "one-person" dogs.

Have You Tried Everything In Order To Keep The Puppy?

I assume you did not research the Siberian Husky breed before making your "spot purchase". My limited knowledge of the breed leads me to believe these are not family oriented, but single owner canine companions (anyone who owns a Siberian please feel free to jump in and correct me if I am mistaken). I am surprised that one visit to the doctor and he could tell you the puppy needed to be put down. Did the vet do any blood work, take x-rays, etc., to rule out any physical problems? Have you had a puppy before and are you aware of the adjustments they must go through? Did you consider a puppy obedience training class? It is good that you are "giving" your puppy to a rescue group, but please be forewarned: All rescue groups that I am aware of work with volunteers and must raise money to feed, train and care for abandoned animals. Don't expect them to jump up and down for joy because you made a bad decision and are now handing that decision off to them to deal with.
