I know that they may never cause him problems or require surgery but it still makes me worry. He also only has 1 testicle that has decended and hes 7 months so the vet thinks he may never come down.( He is getting fixed next month and i have no interest in breeding him) I have emailed and called the breeder several times to tell her about his conditions so she knows that Gizmo's parents both have those genes even if they are recessive. She told me she would mail me Gizmo's papers and i never got them, she claims he AKC and she hasnt responded to my emails. Should I leave it along and just go on loving my furbaby or is there anything else i can do? Since shes a professor at my school i can stop by her office but i rather not have to.
So, the professor is the breeder? I gather there was no contract - no health guarantee. Was there any verbal statement made regarding the health of this puppy?
