But this ending still is the right thing to do.

Don't ask, don't tell. Pretty simple.

The bigger issue for me is the nonsense over contracts and guarantees. Rare is the breeder who would give someone a refund; most opt for replacing the pup knowing full well that few people are going to give up a dog with whom they're already in love. I wouldn't so what's the point? Those who can are clearly less interested in the dogs themselves than they are in whatever the dog can provide them in the form of recognition or a boost to their egos.
If I carefully study a breeding from which I am considering a pup and I think that the pairing is a good idea, how is an issue that manifests itself not my fault every bit as much as the breeders? I understand than many people don't have my experience, hence the contracts and guarantees...something to make novices feel good about their decisions. The only real guarantee is to buy an already proven adult dog; I accept that as a reality of life if I choose to buy a puppy and commit to living with that decision for entirety of the dog's life.

If you threaten your boss on Wednesday, because you haven't been given your paycheck that comes on Friday, per your contract, do you then then pat yourself on the back when it shows up on Friday, convincing yourself that you wouldn't have gotten paid without your Wednesday tantrum? LMAO

The rest of your post is just ... ramblings.

YR, you're right, of course, but you do what you need to do to ensure other parties will do what is best for the dog. If that means money, then money it is. The dog is more important than the principle or the money.
