but i do believe the breeder has some negilence involved.
i wouldnt expect the breeder to give a full refund but maybe 1/2 back in cash or a puppy with 1/2 off the price..once the home was cleaned and time had passed.....but then i, as a caring breeder, wouldnt feel comfortable sending another puppy her way because the chance of parvo.
very very sad story though! |
I totally agree with you. Breeder was wrong to sell so young and buyer shouldn't have taken her around places where she might've contracted the parvo.
