Silver Brook Maltese
Breed: Maltese | Member Since 2/24/2007
Silver Brook Maltese will take every effort to guarantee that every puppy from here is in good health at the time of adoption. Because we cannot control the exposure of the puppy after leaving us, we ask that you have your new puppy examined by a vet within seven (7) days after acquiring your puppy. If you do not do this, this contract is VOID. We will not ship a puppy until Silver Brook Maltese is certain that the puppy is ready for
the trip to your home and has passed a veterinary health inspection and is free from any
illness (at least 10 weeks of age). Silver Brook Maltese will send the puppy’s health certificate, vaccination record and copies of the AKC registration papers.
Silver Brook Maltese warrants the health of the puppy for the first twelve (12) months of life against genetic hereditary illnesses (i.e. heart, liver, and kidney failure). If ever a replacement puppy is deemed necessary due to one of the above-listed life-threatening illnesses, the replacement will be made for the same value of puppy, unless Buyer prefers to pay the difference for a more valuable puppy. Buyer must return the puppy along with all registration papers, immunizations papers, etc. along with a letter from a licensed veterinarian stating the type of condition/illness that the puppy is exhibiting in order to determine if a replacement is to be made to Buyer. Should a death occur, due to an unknown cause, an autopsy must be performed by a licensed veterinarian and a copy of the report forwarded to Silver Brook Maltese before determining if a replacement is to be made. There will be no cash refunds. All expenses are at Buyer’s expense including the licensed veterinarian diagnosis and autopsy, if applicable, and the return shipping and shipping of a replacement puppy.
Puppies are extremely susceptible to infections due to cool drafts. Another susceptibility of puppies and small dogs is hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), which can be brought on by a number of reasons, such as; not eating properly or frequently enough, playing too much, the stress of being moved to a new home, or just being handled too much. Puppies can also experience high stress during moves to their new homes, changes in their diet, as well as too much handling. Too much handling and activity can also cause parasites that can be dormant, such as; but not limited to, worms and ear mites.
Every preventative effort has been made by Silver Brook Maltese (worming, shots, and ear cleaning) to guard against these types of problems. Buyer should be aware of them possibly occurring. These conditions are all treatable and do NOT warrant a return or exchange of said puppy.
Small puppies and dogs are very fragile and every precaution should be made in handling them. Their bones are tiny and they are easily injured. This contract is NOT applicable for accidental injury to puppy. While Silver Brook Maltese will make a good faith effort to estimate the color of size of the puppy based on past litters and size of the parents. Silver Brook Maltese does NOT and CANNOT guarantee size, color, temperament, or fertility of a puppy. We represent our puppies as beautiful, loving pets. We have expended a lot of love, care, and time prior the puppy’s adoption. Buyer should be prepared and ready to continue that same loving care.
