If both parties are signers of the breeder's code, contact the breeder's  
code chair.  If not, contact the ethics chair. All of the procedures  are in 
the P & P manual behind the secure area of the PC's web site.
 
I have a real problem w/ "show PUPPY" BTW.  I think I am as good as  
anybody at evaluating puppies but a puppy is a promise, no more, no less.   My 
policy is that all puppies who leave at the 8-9 week point are sold at  a 
companion price.  I can say "this is a promising puppy" but I can't  guarantee 
all of the pieces of the puzzle that make a dog a SHOW DOG will fall  into 
place.  In fact, I hate being asked to sell a puppy for show because  so many 
things can go wrong and the very few times I have done it, I have had  
assurances that the dog would be a forever member of the family, no matter  if 
they were a superstar or not. I'm more concerned about forever homes and  
worried about what happens to all of the "not exactlys".
 
Anyway...that's just how I do things after finding myself many years ago in 
 the exact same place you are today.
 
If you want a show dog, best to buy one old enough where you can prelim,  
ears are perfect, but is perfect, head is screwed on straight and you can  
see them move.  
 
OR, do what I did several months back.  I bought an exciting show  prospect 
but there are no guarantees.  Maybe she'll work out (I think so),  but 
maybe not too and since I took her at 9 weeks I didn't ask for nor did I  
expect 
promises.

I need  to know what a person is supposed to do when (member of the parent 
club)  breeder sells you a show puppy at a show puppy price, gives you a 
contract and  guarantee on hips and elbows, which the puppy failed to pass and 
had to be put  down because of misery he was suffering, and then won't stand 
behind there  contract. The puppy was two when he had to be put down. I 
have tried for 5  years to get this dog replaced and am now blocked from this 
person.....it has  been suggested to take them to small claims court but i 
would like to avoid  that if possible. At this point i just want my money 
back...I am and have been  very willing to work with person..but enough is 
enough, any  suggestions..message me  privately
