thanks for the answers. No contracts were involved. No health guerantees were given. We had only 1 litter, we are no breeders. We did everything by the book, checked the hips etc. We feel for the pup, and the owners, but i feel we cannot be held responsible somehow. We also dont know how the pup has been raised. Did it walk on slippery floors, eat to much calcium, grew too fast etc.. Difficult .
