You know you are a wonderful person/pet owner and the breeder knows she is a great breeder, so it is a wash! Great....easy and so uncomplicated! If either one of you is not as great as you think you are, it makes no difference....you got your pup, she got her money! Neither one of you owes the other the time of day.....
I require the information I require so MY babies do not end up in a rescue or the pound in the first place! My babies are going to their furever home, bypassing the streets or the pound or the need to be rescued! |
No breeder pays for the medical issues. They give you a replacement dog or refund the purchase price. If I'm wrong post a contact that says a breeder will lay med bills. Emotional support is nice but I don't need that when I'm paying the huge bills for a dog someone else made into a mess.
The idiot selling the dog comment doesn't apply to everyone selling dogs, just idiots. Some breeders are better than others. Some are great until you want your purchase price back to roll into your dog who cost more than 5x the purchase price in the first two years of his life. It's medical problems and lack of affordability that lands dogs in rescues and they are often times later unadoptable.
