I can only re-iterate what I said before, document and send on your documentation to the breeder, and also a letter that outlines what would make a good remedy in your mind n heart.
What the breeder said to you, and what you said, and what you heard, I have no idea.
But I will tell you as a breeder I would want objective data to substantiate any genetic condition that a puppy buyer of mine claims. There are actually no genetic tests available to the Yorkshire Terrier breeder - there are only health screenings.
Quite frankly, if you substantiate your case with your breeder, and she does not respond then that would be the time to post a review. |
There is not actually a genetic issue. The puppy broke his leg the first day home and Karyn felt that there was either a previous injury to the leg and/or an issue related to malnutrition (both were mentioned at different times).
On the other two linked threads about mistibleu there was some positive feedback but one person in particular posted on both threads (I think same wording/same day) that she had received a pup with LCP which of course is a very serious health issue. From what I have read, although they beleive LCP to be a genetic issue and of course do not recommend breeding any dog who has shown up with this (
) I beleive it doesn't have as clear a pattern of genetic presedence as some other health issues do and will 'pop up' in a litter where all parentage and offspring has previously been healthy ***disclaimer: I am not a geneticist or veterinarian and have just read online and in books so I might just be wrong or confused, please feel free to correct me if you have more information on this subject as I find it fascinating to learn about***
