Hi, Laura,
Warranty and guarantee are the same. I'm not saying that if a pup I
bred had a problem that I wouldn't do everything in my power to help,
I'm saying that in my contract I don't warrantee that it won't happen.
I won't promise that any more than I'll promise I'll have the money for
an expensive surgery should it happen. I fully disclose all the
problems and I also would do what I could to help up to and including
*attempting* to pay for surgery. However, I won't put it in a contract
as I think that suggests to the Buyer something that isn't true; that my
pups are not going to get ill.
