| Cherry eye... don't worry, it's 'normal' |
Was forwarded
this link to an internet puppy-selling site in Canada... which reassuringly offers a lifetime guarantee, including against genetic disorders. A closer examination, though, reveals that it includes some amazing get-out clauses and conditions. It does not, for instance, cover heart murmurs, invertebral disc disease or luxating patellas and...
"You must follow PUREBRED BREEDERS, LLC recommended nutritional program, including feeding only premium dog foods and vitamin supplement listed in the paperwork that we give you at the time of purchase. You must retain all receipts for food and vitamins to show you are abiding by this guarantee."But the wording that most caught my eye was this:
"English Bulldogs are only covered for a period of one (1) year from original purchase date. During which time, this guarantee does not cover what in Bulldog breeds we consider normal: Cherry Eye, Entropion, "loose hips", skin allergies, elongated soft palate, small trachea, stenotic nares."Depressing.
