Bad breeders offer a health guarantee to make them seem like good breeders, only they don't have the proof to back up their claims.

Did that make any sense? I'm not that great at explaining things.
Okay, I sort of see what you are saying. But, how do you know if it a good breeder putting that in there for the good of the dog, or if a BYB is just putting it in there just to make people think they are a good breeder?
