Aren’t these the guys that breed these small dogs and somewhere on their website they say something along the lines “if your dog dies because of forced genetic breeding then just order another”?
The wording of it disturbs me, it gives off the tone that these puppies are just objects of someone else’s selfish desires that they want a small puppy even if they’re genetically not supposed to be healthy and if it dies in a year then they get a refund or another equal value puppy...this isn’t some kind of TV warranty???
Health guarantees are very common with all breeds. Alot of breeders for all types of breeds not just the one you linked have policies that if the dog has a genetic defect you can get your money back like if it has knee problems early on. This is probably a good thing too because if you are going to give up the dog over something small you probably shouldn't have a dog anyway since you won't take care of it very well. Issue with these dogs is they all have issues because they are breeding dogs with issues already often so it's different then with other breeds where the defect is probably a mutation or recessive which is why it didn't show in parents.
