Florida has a really TOUGH lemon law with regard to puppies and breeders. With what has taken place to date with this baby, you would come out on top of this deal....many have done so, with much less in their favor. (I am sure Linda is correct with the enormous price increase in the necropsy....that 75.00 I paid was back in 1975 when my first little tiny Yorkie I had bought, died suddenly, for no apparent reason....of course, prices have increased...what was I thinking?) I am not sure if now would be the time to tell the breeder you have a copy of the lemon law and there are several clauses there that pertain directly to you and your puppy. You want a necropsy done on the baby, for BOTH her protection as well as yours. If the necropsy comes back and there is nothing wrong with the puppy except he had hypoglycemia, you will accept that....but your vet has said there is a major problem that is preventing him from thriving, that it is much more than just hypoglycemia, the baby is desperately ill, and you need it diagnosed. She KNOWS there is a problem that she is going to be responsible for, and she will do everything in her power to get around it. The law is definately on YOUR side in Florida....dont let her get away with this. You have her by the short hairs, so to speak....if she knows that YOU know you do have the upper hand, you will at least be getting your money back for your baby. |
