i feel for both but mostly for the pup i would always agree to replace or refund with the correct paper work and my vet agreeing to the findings was it hard to give this girl back you bet ya i cried for days but somethings can be un for seen
and i would hate to think that if i had one mishap happen that i could be ruined for ever not all are honest with even the back ground just because someone may tell you all gentics in the back ground are clean well not all is as always seen and there are many show breeders that have had mishaps but they do not come on to a public forum to be beat up when none really know both sides i am not walking in either's shoes
i can only walk in my own |
I can only imagine how hard it is to give back a puppy that you have come to love. However, if you are starting or already have a breeding program you sometimes might have to make that decision.
I certainly understand the OP's concerns, believe me. I had a Chihuahua with grade 4 LP and it was painful to just watch him walk. His heart was so bad that I couldn't have surgery done on him either. He actually lived to a very old age. I got him from a breeder, but I just couldn't give him back. Anyway, I was not interested in breeding so that part didn't matter.
