I had contacted a breeder I found off of a listing online, and when I asked her if she offered health guarantees on her puppies, she snapped at me and said that it's impossible to guarantee the health of a puppy. I then explained to her that other breeders I've checked out have offered 1, 2 or 5 year guarantees which replaces a pup if it dies from genetic health problems. The lady was like "can you guarantee your own health? it's impossible!" and then she went on to tell me that reputable breeders would never offer health guarantees and that the breeders who offer them are scams. That being said, what is everybody's thoughts on health guarantees?
