I do not believe the release of liablility would hold up in this case. A release like that is usually NOT valid to allow "negligence" which is what this is. If that were possible everyone would have releases signed and not worry about neglience. The only right thing to do is to pay for the puppy imo!
This is another example of a case proving that we really need to research vaccines and the potential harm they can cause despite the vet's insistence that they are harmless. I am more and convinced that the more knowledge we have the more powerful we will feel about saying NO to unnecessary vaccines. Had Christy known how dangerous it really is to over vaccinate she may have been more insistent and not allowed the vet to do the vaccination. |
