I'm thinking of the person who falls in love with a pup and discovers it has a treatable form of liver shunt.

It just seems like it would be costing the breeder the same amount of money whether they refund the money or provide a replacement dog. Why not do the thing that would make everybody the happiest?

A spay or neuter clause would be mandatory in such a situation.
I think that would be a wonderful clause.
I've not seen it before. I purchased a dog (20 years ago - for my parents) that I REALLY wish the breeder would have done this for me!!! That is before I knew what a puppy mill was... sheeesh! Live and Learn.
