Linda Budd went searching for a new friend . . . and she found one for $400. A brand new puppy. She purchased the puppy from Bernadette Vicidomine, a person who regularly sells puppies. Budd took her new friend home but realized that he was not in the best of health. Already attached to him, she did not return the puppy to Vicidomine but, instead, took him to the veterinarian. Nearly $2,400 later, the puppy was medically mended. Budd then sued for the $400 purchase price and nearly $2,400 in vet bills, alleging breach of the implied warranty of merchantability. How did the court rule?
