"AS IS" just means you are accepting him "as he is" with no guarantees. He is still registered and has papers, etc. so he is still okay for breeding as far as all of that goes. The breeder who is giving the puppy away for free is simply alleviating herself from any liability should the puppy become ill or if it is discovered later that he has some defect or whatever. She just wants Marlee to know that she is not responsible for replacing him if any of these circumstances occur.
I think it's a win win for Marlee. She is willing to give you a show Potential puppy, mentor you and teach you how to show and breed, all in exchange for a puppy from a later litter. She sounds pretty decent to me, but then I am trusting to a fault sometimes. I always try to see the good in people over the bad. |
I think you may be right here, and I am glad someone knew what she meant. The puppy from a later litter will hopefully be for show also. Pick of the litter female, with show potential. She believe the two dogs will produce a very nice puppies. yes she is a breeder, but she plans to keep the future dog.
I think it just scared me becasue when I bought Bridget she did have a 1 year gaurntee. I was expectin the same I guess. No i really didnt expect her to replace a puppy, or spend the money on it, I just worried if something did go worng, I would somehow still lose out, and becasue the way I had been through it before figured a garuntee was standard. Thank you for the input and clairfication, I reall appriecate it
