I have a hard time seeing that one really hitting your reputation that hard... perhaps I am wrong, but I would like to think with as much time and effort that it takes to build a reputation it should not be destroyed off of someones breeding projects with an animal they percused from you. I know a few large breeders who have had nightmare sales where animals got sick and the buyers nearly pin it on them (these are really hard to prove whos at fault in a lot of cases)but the sellers communicated with the buyer and needless to say the buyer walked away feeling at least like a deal was not a total loss and the breeder still maintained their reputation. If your entire reputation were to be lost over someone breeding one of your animals and gettting defective offspring I think you really need a stronger reputation to begin with.
