Dear Jeff Morton,

I am writing to inform you that our puppy Gracie, a 10 week old beagle we purchased from your store on March 19th, has severe pneumonia 
resulting from kennel cough and is now hospitalized. 

I called the store on April 1st and spoke with Heather and let her know at that time the dog had been diagnosed with kennel cough and had 
been deemed by the vet as "unfit for purchase". I also contacted the warranty company to start the appropriate process.

Gracie's condition worsened and on April 5th we rushed her to the hospital where she was admitted. X-rays revealed she had severe 
pneumonia. Also, she was running a temperature of 106!! She is in critical condition and struggling for her survival. I called again yesterday 
April 6th and informed Heather that the puppy was hospitalized with severe pneumonia. She told me to speak with the warranty people.

I am sharing this info because I feel you should be aware of the real condition of this dog. She is not a "healthy" dog as I was lead to believe 
at the time of purchase... And to date the cost for medical care has already exceeded what the warranty offers. I am very concerned about 
this puppy that my husband and I care so much about, and I am also concerned about the bills that are mounting.

As I stated, I thought you should be made aware that one of the dogs you sold is very sick and to let you know of our concerns. Our 
telephone number is 201-641-4341. Also, I can be reached at: miakodaha@yahoo.com.

Regards, Patricia Fox
