So far Luke is doing well after surgery 9 days out. |
I was not commenting on your breeder. As for show breeders, there are good ones and bad ones.
I am glad your breeder offered to make good on this...I hope she paid for the surgery or at least refunded the purchase price. I would personally not be satisfied with a breeder who wanted the pup back in return for the money....but of course that is usually spelled out in the contract.
I was merely commenting about the posts that you and others made saying that LCP is not genetic. That is simply not a fact.
I said that reputable breeders do look for LCP and do remove pups from their breeding stock if LCP does show up.
