I'm going to try to keep this short. My parents got a male yorkie from a breeder almost 2 yrs. ago. His testicles never dropped and the vet said they are not going to drop. He has to have a surgery that is going to cost around $500 factoring in antibiotics. My mother never told the breeder because she thought maybe they would drop, but no such luck. Everybody we talked to said that she should compensate somehow for our yorkie. The breeder now has a yorkie puppy for sale that I am interested in buying, but we think that she should compensate by knocking off at least a couple hundred dollars.
What is the breeders ethic when it comes to this kind of situation, and how should we handle it. We also have the vet documentation.
