Replying to a message of Matt Munson to All:

 MM> Would a dog breeder be liable to help pay for the costs of a hernia

Assuming the puppy had the hernia while still at the breeder the breeder would
have
a moral responsibility.  AFAIK there's no legal responsibility.  Unless,
possibly, the
buyer took it immediately to a vet for an exam and found the hernia then.
