Hello everybody who responded to my post. I love to read them! Keep them coming!!

As most have you have commended on - YES it's kind of weird that brenda says she will replace a puppy with a genetic defect.

I think this is the case because most breeders know that when you bring a puppy in your life and raise him for almost a year you get attached and there is no way a person in their right mind would give him up. Funny how this "reputable" breeder doesn't want her puppy saying in a home that REALLY loves him and is willing to whatever it takes to get him better!

I told my mom that Brenda offered to replace Lucky for another new puppy and she was like "WOULD YOU REPLACE A CHILD IF IT HAD A DISEASE?? NO WAY!". Our puppy is our child. She's just trying to get off of this without doing anything, and that's what's happening. So, it's our intent to notify any person that is interested in one of her puppies to really think twice. This shouldn't be happening!!!

I asked Brenda OVER and OVER what she would even do with Lucky (our dog) if she did replace him. She never answered that question. If she would take him back and provide him with the care he needs she would have to pay for all his medical costs AND then she'd have to give me a puppy that was of equal cost to Lucky (we paid $1,300), so she wouldn't be getting any of that money either. It would cost her more to replace than pay for the surgery. We only asked Brenda to pay for the surgery and NOT any of the other medical costs associated with this disease (xrays, bone work, pre surgery tests, pain meds, physical therapy, etc. etc.).

She claims it's not genetic, but then why are you offering to replace him per your contract??!?!? She's in denial and I'm realizing she doesn't know much about the breed at all. Actually, in doing more research on her over the last few days, her kennel used to be under a different name "greens tiny treasures" or something like that. She also breeds chis. Who knew.

I have sent numerous articles to Brenda (some given to me by our specialists who know the disease) saying this is genetic. The Yorkshire Terrier Club of America's HEALTH page also states clearly that they suggest that all breeders do genetic testing to get their dogs OFA certified for LEGG PERTHES. If this wasn't genetic why would the breed club recommend that breeding dogs be tested for this disease? Hmmmmm

Brenda, you shocked that I took this public? As I said, our family has been very upset over this the last few days and there is NO reason this should of happened to us or any body else. This should be public. When we spend $1,300 in hopes to get a quality dog without and defects, that's what we should get! Simple as that!!

I have posted various other posts on here as well. Please everybody check them out!

Oh, and does anybody know how to delete an old post I wrote on here? I wrote one months ago and it needs to come down!

More to come!!!
