I have not contacted her breeder. I know I need to talk to her, but it makes me sick. That someone could be breeding dogs without getting the parents tested. I wasn't knowledgeable enough to ask about testing before getting her. I looked into different breeders and this one did seem knowledgable and responsible on several fronts, and I did a lot of homework-I guess not deep enough, but I didn't know that the parents should be tested. She does offer a health guarantee but only at the replacement of the dog. I don't want another dog from her. I actually bought a playmate for Gretta from the same breeder about 4 months ago and it died of parvo a week later. We just got a replacement for that dog from her about a month ago. I feel without a doubt that the parvo of course was not her fault, yet she replaced it. I will let her know about Gretta's problems, but the thought of me getting another puppy to replace Gretta makes me want to vomit. |
