Why do puppies and dogs always have to be the one to suffer. Ok so the pup was bought from a bad breed live and learn even get the law involved but don't make a suffering puppy suffer more. The only way the breeder will learn is to get the law involved I highly doubt returning the puppy is gonna make much difference to teach her anything. Callie was sick when I got her and never even thought of giving her back and trust me what she cost and the health care she had to have was certainly not in the budget.

That's really admirable, sweet and from your generous heart but it's your personal decision made from your own personal living and financial circumstances and only surmising what you might or might not do given a similar situation. It's only hypothetical and your circumstances could potentially change so drastically some day you could never now know what you might do one day. But right now, you are not walking in Amy's shoes. She and others might feel differently given their own personal financial circumstances, which might be far, far different from yours or the majority here on YT. Some people are pretty much on their own in every way and have to live very hard, more practical lives at times due to being very much on their own with little or no help of any kind from anyone or any entity.
It doesn't mean people are irresponsible or bad people if they want to return a sick dog to the breeder from whence it came and lemon laws in some states are made to help people in that very situation. It does mean that dealing with breeders like that described by the OP on this and on another thread are to be avoided at all costs but, still, it could potentially discourage some bad breeding practices if people would wholesale return newly purchased sick puppies to the breeders and make them deal with what they've produced.
