Did they buy them at the same time from the same breeder? Chances are they were closely related, if not brother and sister. I know of someone (a family friend)who bought two dogs from the same breeder.
Turns out they were closely enough related for the puppies to be born blind, deaf, or both.
And the people that DO sell a breeding pair to anyone are ALSO back yard breeders same as the people that buy them to make money.
I show dogs and when any of us get a call that someone wants to buy both a male and female we will NOT sell them ANY dogs.
AND we get on the phone and call everyone else in that breed for a heads up and post the buyers name and their description on every breed forum across the US.
Because when these back yard breeders get wise they can't get a breeding pair from a responsible breeder they will call around and ask to just buy a female and then go to another to buy the male.
It's how we work very diligently to stopping back yard breeding.
