I suppose they could tell the buyer, but what good would it do if the puppy is not sick. It does no good to treat them if they are not sick? Many vets routinely test stool samples but if it is not active it won't show up in the stool either.

This is one of those things that just happen, that no one is to blame. If the new owner gets the puppy to the vet to get it treated it will be fine.

When you adopt a living thing, you should know that there is a chance that they will get sick, and they might even require expensive operations or even die. Those things are not anyones fault. It's just part of life.

I agree. I just think that part of breeding...and also rescuing....is educating people. There is nothing wrong with telling someone what "might" happen. That way if something happens they are not at a total loss.
