WHEN BUYING A LABRADOR RETRIEVER ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT ITEMS YOU
SHOULD SHOP FOR IS A GUARANTEE. THIS DOCUMENT MAY SEEM UNECESSARY BUT
THE FACT THAT YOUR BREEDER CHOOSES TO STAND BEHIND THE HEALTH OF THE
DOGS THAT THEY ARE SELLING SHOULD INSPIRE CONFIDENCE IN YOU THAT THE
BREEDER IS SURE OF THE HEALTH OF THE DOGS THAT THEY ARE PAIRING AND THE
HEALTH OF THE RESULTING PUPPIES.
THE GUARANTEE ALSO SHOULD INDICATE A BREEDER WHO IS SERIOUS ENOUGH
ABOUT WHAT THEY ARE DOING THAT THEY WILL BE AROUND FOR THE DURATION OF
THE GUARANTEE. IN OUR CASE THIS MEANS SOMEONE WHO WILL BE AVAILABLE
FOR ADVICE FOR THE PRICE OF A PHONE CALL.
REMEMBER THAT A GUARANTEE WILL ONLY BE OFFERED BY THE BREEDER WHO IS
SO CONFIDENT IN THEIR ANIMALS HEALTH THAT THEY ARE PERSONALLY WILLING TO
BET THAT THEY WILL NEVER HAVE TO MAKE GOOD ON THEIR GUARANTEE.
