Blairs Bullies
Breed: Bulldog | Member Since 2/5/2009
Blairs Bullies guarantees puppy to be in good physical condition for 48 hours after Buyer receives puppy. For this health guarantee to become effective, Buyer must have said puppy receive a complete physical by a licensed veterinarian within 48 hours of delivery. Failure to do so voids the Health Guarantee. If the veterinarian finds said puppy to have a serious physical condition other than a viral or bacteria infection, including a bacterial cold, Blairs Bullies will replace the puppy with another puppy of the same sex and comparable quality. Buyer must understand that Coccidia and Giardia are common in puppies and can be brought on from the stress of change. Kennel cough, also caused by bacteria, can be contacted during shipment. Puppies are also susceptible to fleas and other parasites during shipping which are not considered a serious physical condition. The Buyer must make Blairs Bullies aware of any serious physical condition within 48 hours of the time that the buyer receives the puppy. The replacement puppy will be delivered to the buyer only after the defective puppy has been returned with registration, and as soon as a comparable puppy becomes available. All transportation expenses related to the original puppy as well as the replacement puppy is the responsibility of the buyer. Full medical documentation must precede the return of the defective puppy. The documentation must explicitly and singularly identify that the cause of the puppy's defect is genetically related. The result of this documentation is to be evaluated by a veterinarian of the seller's choosing to confirm and authenticate the results provided by the buyer's veterinarian. The findings and opinions of the seller's veterinarian are to be considered the final and ultimate opinion. All transportation expenses involved in the return of the original puppy as well as the replacement puppy is the responsibility of the buyer. Blairs Bullies does not agree to compensate the buyer for any veterinarian expenses and we do not offer cash refunds.
The buyer has five days upon the discovery of the above mentioned serious physical condition to return the puppy and registration to the seller. Failure to return the puppy to seller within five days are construed to reflect that the buyer is satisfied with the puppy's health and absolves the seller from any and all responsibility from that day forward for non-genetic illnesses or problems.
2. Blairs Bullies guarantees puppy to be free on any genetic/hereditary defects that cause death or serious impairment of vital functions in said puppy until one year of age. Any problems with hips will not be covered until said puppy is at least 12 months of age. Blairs Bullies will cover hips and elbows against crippling until purchased puppy/dog is eighteen months of age. In the event of crippling hips and elbows, a replacement puppy will be delivered to the buyer, at the buyer’s expense, as soon as a comparable puppy, as determined by the seller, becomes available. Blairs Bullies does not agree to compensate the buyer for any veterinarian expenses and we do not offer cash refunds. All test results and x-rays used to diagnose crippling hips and elbows must be submitted to a veterinarian of the sellers choosing for evaluation. The findings and opinions of the seller's veterinarian are to be considered the final and ultimate opinion.
Buyer understands because of the angularity and frame structure of Bulldogs, a person could make the case that every bulldog (in theory) is dysplastic to a degree. Much of what could be clinically classified as dysplasia via X-ray, has no negative impact on the dog in terms of discomfort or physical limitations and is a result of breed characteristics that are specified in breed standards.
3. In the event of sudden death of a puppy that we sell, due to genetically related circumstances, we agree to replace the puppy with a puppy of comparable quality, as determined by the seller, as soon as a comparable puppy becomes available, and after the seller receives a certificate of death issued from a licensed veterinarian. Blairs Bullies does not agree to compensate the buyer for any veterinarian expenses and we do not offer cash refunds. The certificate of death must say explicitly that the cause of death was related to an identified genetic condition. The results of this certificate are to be evaluated by a veterinarian of the seller's choosing to confirm and authenticate the results. All post-mortem procedures performed on the deceased puppy are the responsibility of the buyer. All transportation expenses related to the replacement puppy are the responsibility of the buyer. Blairs Bullies does not agree to extend this policy to puppies that die in a non-sudden manner. (i.e. from a condition that the buyer had become aware of previously but elected not to return the puppy to the breeder for a comparable replacement within the specified period of time of 5 days).
5. Although a conscious effort is made by Blairs Bullies to breed and produce sound, healthy bulldogs, buyer should understand that due to the nature of this breed, bulldogs are predisposed to certain medical abnormalities beyond our control including cherry eye, stenotic nares, entropian, loose hips and skin allergies. We do not breed dogs with undesirable conditions such as mange or bad hips, but we cannot guarantee that previous generations did not have these conditions in their lines. Therefore, we can not guarantee these conditions will not show up unbeknownst to us in future litters. The buyer is urged to research the breed and be familiar with all the health issues that could affect their bulldog before entering into this or any agreement to purchase a bulldog. It is also very important to have a veterinarian knowledgeable about the bulldog breed to use as your vet.
6. At time of purchase, puppy will be current on all wormings and vaccinations according to age. Buyer agrees to keep all vaccinations & wormings current, including rabies, and to provide regular heartworm preventative as prescribed by your veterinarian. Buyer also agrees to keep the puppy/dog in humane conditions, providing proper food, water and shelter. This guarantee will be completely null and void if said pup is used for any sort of illegal activity (i.e. dog fighting) or in any extreme sports (i.e. weight pulling), or is mistreated, abused or not taken care of.
7. We represent our puppies as being suitable as pets only. We make no claim that they are suited as breeding or show animals and we offer no compensation for circumstances or characteristics that limit the dog's ability to be bred or competitively shown.
