My girlfriend bought a puppy from a breeder on the Internet Montana or somewhere. Than flew down to pick her up. When she got there she soon realized the dogs were not AKC and had no good pedigrees in the back ground. But, the puppy looked like she was healthy and well cared for so she bought her anyway. Knowing full well not to buy an ACA or CKC puppy. After about 9 months she started having problems with her 1 knee. My girlfriend waited and from her dog putting all the weight on the one leg it wound up ruining the other knee too. So she had to have 2 surgeries and the recovery was very painful and about 6 months of constant monitoring. The vet also told her if she doesn't let the dog's knees recover correctly they will be lame and cannot have another surgery. It is a one time deal and so far a cost of over $5000.00 Please make sure you are buying your babies from reputable breeders. I am not saying you won't have a defect here and there but the chances of them having these types of problems are far far less and they will stand behind them. They are guaranteed!
