well i'm torn in this situation.
mainly because my yorkie, sophie, was purchased in a home depot parking lot.
the breeder's house was in some small town i had never heard of, off of a larger town i was familiar with. i had visited her web site before, saw the pictures of her house and puppies, she even had a health guarantee lined up for the puppy. The reason we purchased Sophie in the parking lot was because she was trying to help us save time on a trip that was already five hours away from our home.
considering she would allow us to return the dog under any circumstances she was sick, i don't think she was hiding anything.
after taking sophie to the vet, her only health problem were ear mites, but that is a common infection for young puppies.
(all four of my shelties had them at one point as puppies)
it's all about your judgement, i suppose. |
