I hope you have researched this breeder well, and I hope that when and if you bring home a pup that you will be committed to it no matter how big the dog grows. |
I agree. I also think the 1 year health guarantee is very misleading. What happens if the dog has a congenital defect show up after one year of ownership? If I was a breeder, I would want to know if any of my dogs were to get sick even after they grew to adulthood. That's a really important fact to know in order to improve my lines. I wouldn't purchase from someone who's attitude toward a dog is the same as toward a toaster. You return a toaster if it doesn't meet your expectations, but you (general you not intended toward anyone) don't return a friend/family you vowed to care for and love for the next 15+ years.
