2 years ago I bought a pure bred Cavalier King Charles Spaniel from a breeder. When she was 6 months old, she was diagnosed with bilateral patella luxation. It cost me $6000 to have her legs repaired. I contacted the breeder by email to advise her about my puppies genetic condition and perhaps she should stop breeding from one or both the parents. I never received a reply. My vet advised me that the breeder's silence may indicate that she knew that she should not be breeding from the parents but perhaps did not care. My question is - how do I warn the public if they want to buy a puppy bred from the same parents as my puppy?
