What a terrible situation...and a breeder who has no clue as to how to handle this situation..well, she better start learning fast or stop breeding.
An ethical breeder will give you your choice, once it is decided it is LS..you may return the pup for another, you may have a full refund and keep the pup..an ethcical breeder can not throw up their hands and refuse to take on this problem...she created it, she solves it..even if totally dissrupts her life..
She is not legally repsonsible for surgery costs etc if you decide to keep the pup, but the selling price can be applied to the vet fees.
Best wishes
PS..you can never say a bloodline is genetically free of all problems...none exist. |
