Health Requirements
The Buyer(s) may consult their own veterinarian for follow-up immunization of the puppy/dog. However, for all medical treatment, it is strongly recommended that Buyer(s) consult a veterinarian with expertise in treating Chinese Shar-Pei dogs.
Except as otherwise provided herein, Buyer specifically agrees to have puppy/dog neutered or spayed by a licensed veterinarian who is experienced in treating Chinese Shar-Pei dogs. The records of the neutering or spaying of the puppy/dog must be sent to the Seller to be recorded as fulfillment of a specific term of this contract.

A record of this puppy/dog’s veterinary treatment history will be attached to this contract and incorporated by reference. This animal has no known health problems other than those specified on the attached record of veterinary treatment. However, the Buyer is on notice that Chinese Shar-Pei dogs, like other breeds, have a tendency to exhibit certain health problems. In the Chinese Shar-Pei, these problems may include amyloidosis, entropion*, hip dysplasia, renal failure, swollen hock syndrome and elongated palate. (*Many Shar-Pei puppies must have their eyes tacked.)
THIS IS NOT necessarily an indication that entropion surgery will be required but the dog’s eyes should be watched carefully and routinely checked. Tacking and eye examinations should be done by veterinarians with extensive experience treating Chinese Shar-Pei dogs.) Buyer(s) are urged to discuss with the Seller, Buyer’s veterinarian and a veterinarian experienced in treating Chinese Shar-Pei the potential for any of these problems to be expressed in this animal.
The Buyer(s) agree to have the puppy/dog examined by a qualified licensed veterinarian experienced in treating Chinese Shar-Pei dogs, at the Buyer’s expense, with in Forty-eight (48) hours after taking possession of the puppy/dog exclusive of Sundays or holidays.

Failure of the Buyer to have the puppy/dog examined within forty-eight (48) hours of taking possession of the dog, exclusive of Sundays and holidays and/or to submit a written report to the Seller will invalidate this health guarantee and all guarantees contained in this purchase contract.

Notify the Seller of the alleged condition existing;

with the consent and agreement of the Seller, have the condition treated and bill the seller for all reasonable treatment costs less the charge of the veterinarian’s office call.
Seller will not pay any charges for eye tacking.
If the Buyer elects to return the dog for a full refund of monies paid or for a replacement dog, the Seller has the right to have the original dog examined by Seller’s attending veterinarian before refund is made or replacement is offered. If the Seller’s veterinarian feels the original dog’s condition has been misdiagnosed or could be the result of the Buyer’s neglect, abuse, mistreatment, accident or lack of care, the Seller’s guarantee/obligations of a refund or replacement will be void. In addition, the Buyer will be financially liable for all costs incurred by the Seller to return the dog to good health and condition.
All sales are final after forty-eight (48) hours, exclusive of Sundays and holidays.

If the Seller has made two (2) attempts to replace the Buyer’s original dog, that was determined to be defective, and the Buyer(s) refuse both attempts, the Seller will no longer be obligated to replace the original, defective dog, nor is the Buyer(s) due a refund of monies paid.
