I am compelled to say something here. Having kidney disease and/or liver shunts show up in a puppy, does NOT make the breeder unethical, or unreputable....IT IS HOW SHE HANDLES THE SITUATION THAT DETERMINES HER INTEGRITY AS A BREEDER! You need to FIRST, contact the breeder and let her know what you have found in your baby. If she is supportive and starts to pick up vet bills and refund money on the purchase price, and she stands by you, you have JUST come on here and been unecessarily brutal to someone that is perhaps a fine, upstanding, concerned, caring breeder that is going to bend over backwards trying to make this right for YOU, and then look at her own program with the breeding pair that produced this baby, and make some tough decisions. LOOK AT YOUR CONTRACT AND HEALTH GUARANTEE....WHAT DOES IT SAY? You have a responsibility to contact the breeder FIRST, before you try to blackball her, and see how she handles this! If her attitude is "gosh, it has been over a year...good luck and have a nice day", THEN come on here and any place else you feel comfortable, and explain what has happened!
