Not only in a litter which you have a C parent, but in all litters the breeder must warn the owners about the possibility of HD and ED, and about the importance of made those exams, even if the dog will not be used on breeding.
As breeder we can never forget that HD and ED are poligenic, and we must to know if our dogs are passing or not such problem to their puppies.
Its for nothing in selection terms, you have an A dog that only made displasic dogs upper than C, and put out of breeding a C dog which had made as worst results a C puppy.

And' true that can be born a pup with the displasia from healthy parents and in this case there are no responsibility from the breeder, but if a pup is born with the displasia from a litter with a displasic parent (beginning from the c) there are responsibility? Must will be us a reimbursement?
And if the breeder has kept silent the presence of hip displasia does he proceed to reimbursement?

We need see what the veterinary studies say about displasy, a C dog can be mated with nice females which have nice hips as results and line, its the common sense, the same thing works for the ED 1 results.
HD C dogs as ED 1 dogs can have normal life when this result is the truth one.
By veterinary etic, all mediun/big sized animals must made the HD and ED results
before mate, C and 1 dogs must be mated with better hip dogs.
So, only by this we can see that the breeder will be completly responsible for the problem IF he had mate dogs with no results or dogs not allowed to be used ( D and E/ 2 and 3), as if he mate two dogs with the same bad results ( C x C / 1 x 1).
Suppose that in a very special case a non-allowed dog must be used on breeding, the future owners must be warned about it, and , in my view, those pups must be donated with a very restrict contract.
But if you made everything all right, according to the etic, with a huge genetic research in the lines used, and even in this way born a puppy with problems, who is responsible for it?
Well.. its the poligenic problem, and the main question is that no one was responsible for it, nor the breeder and much less the owners, so, there enter the common sense again and the serious work.
The first thing you cannot forget, is that this owners will have a lot of expenses with the displasic dog, he will need to gave medicaments and , in the worst cases, make a cirurgie, its a suffer for anyone who loves their dog.
You, as breeder must be sure that this dog will not be used at breeding.
Normally here, the breeders enter in accord with the owners, giving him the possibility of choise another pup, or receive back the exactly same ammount of money he paid in the dog. But for this, the owner must proove to the breeder that the displasic dog was neuthered, so, it solve both problems.
