When I was first told there were some negative reviews posted about me, my first impulse was to ignore them since all my babies always find good, loving homes. I've obviously had second thoughts. Here are my thoughts on the matter:

I have been breeding dogs for over 12 years now. In that time, I have always provided a health guarantee and a contract on every dog I have ever sold. Please feel free to do your own research - the State of Georgia does not require a breeder to offer a contract, a health guarantee, or any type of return policy. The only thing covered by Georgia law for pet purchasers is a protection from fraud on the part of the breeder. I offer all of the above because I believe it is the right thing to do, not because I am required to do it. In those 12 years, I have only had two puppies returned to me. The first one had a very rare and very minor genetic defect issue. That puppy was replaced. The second one was returned to me the day after it was purchased due to an infection. I brought the pup to the vet twice, cleared up the infection and the SAME people came back and re-bought the pup from me. Anyone who has ever sent me a deposit and then changed their mind for any reason, has ALWAYS promptly received their deposit back (minus the $100 non-refundable). I personally think this is a rather outstanding track record.

What buyers need to understand is that if there is a problem with a pup, and yes of course that is possible - if it weren't possible then there wouldn't be a need for a guarantee or contract - then the remedy under the contract is to return the pup within the first four days. It is NOT the remedy to take the pup to a vet, run up the vet bills and expect someone else to pay the bills. There is no breeder out there who pays someone else's vet bills. Under the law, dogs are considered property, and once you buy it, it and all the costs associated with it are the responsibility of the owner.

Please do your homework. Please read my website and my health guarantee. I stand behind it 100%. I always have and I always will. Not only do I have people come back for a second dog, they constantly refer their friends, my best friend has a pup from me, and even my own Vet has purchased a pup from me. Please feel free to call me. Please feel free to come to my house. And most of all please feel free to play with the pups. ~~ Cherie Morgan
