The contract is as follows,
The animal is guaranteed to be free of hereditary defects visible by 24 months of age, including heart murmurs. Determination of what constitutes a hereditary defect is to be by the unanimous agreement of two veterinarinans agreeable to both parties. One of these veterinarians to be a tenuted faculty member of an accredited university teaching hospital or Board Certified in the applicable specialty. Cost of the opinions are to be assumed by the buyer. If the dog is found to have hereditary crippling defects, seller has the option of refunding 50% of the purchase price or, of replacing with the next like available prospect ot mutually agreeable animal provided the living dog and it's registration papers are returned to the seller.
I have notified the breeder of these problems, and after getting mad, she said she would give me $500 without having to return the dog, but I did not think that was good enough. I have also had a Board Certified Vet send his analysis to the Breeder's vet. He recommend never breeding Eddy's parents again. Again, the breeder, when called will not talk to people who ask about the hip certification.
