Susan Seegmiller sold us a puppy with congenital bilateral hip dysplacia

We purchased a golden retriever puppy from northstar golden retrievers back in June. When we received the puppy, he was weak and lethargic. We took him to the vet the next day and he was diagnosed with giardia and coccidia. The breeder was contacted by email and made aware of the puppy's health status but we did not receive a reply from her until 5 months later. Now our puppy is almost 7 months old and he has been diagnosed with bilateral hip dysplasia which the vet believes to be congenital. Our puppy's only option is to have corrective surgery to allow him to have a decent quality of life. Prior to purchasing the puppy, we were assured by the breeder, Mrs Susan Seegmiller, that none of her dogs have had hip dysplasia issues.
Additionally, we received our puppy's AKC registration papers with a big discrepancy in the puppy's mother's name. Originally the name of the puppy's mother was listed as Bessie according to our purchase contract and the Northstar goldens website. On the AKC registration papers the mother's name is listed as Lady Lacey. At this point we have no idea who the real mother is and if our puppy is even a pure bred. This is not really much of an issue as the serious health problem our beautiful boy is having. All we want now is for our puppy to get better and for nobody else to have to experience this horrible nightmare. BEWARE OF PUPPY MILL BREEDERS and don't purchase your dog from an internet breeder without doing a thorough investigation of the breeder!!!
