Health: and Health Guarantee
All precautions have been made to insure that this puppy is in excellent health at the time of purchase. Additionally, male show dogs have been checked and verification has been made that both testicles have descended at the time of pickup. _____________ (Initial) Accidents can happen with new puppy dogs, however, this contract does not cover testicle trauma after the puppy goes to his new home. The breeder does not make any further warranties as to the puppy's condition after pickup. It is the Buyers responsibility to prevent illness and injury by providing necessary booster vaccinations, veterinary care, nutrition, fresh water, shelter and supervision. The breeder has made every effort to breed healthy dogs and has raised this puppy to the best of her ability.
It is recommended by the Breeder that the Buyer take the puppy to a Veterinarian of his/her choice and gives five days from the date of delivery of the puppy in which to do so. If, within those five days, a veterinarian finds the puppy to be unsound, unhealthy, or possessing a serious genetic defect, a statement in writing must be provided by that veterinarian documenting said condition for Breeders' veterinarian to review. Upon confirmation from Breeders' vet of said condition, Buyer may return the puppy, registration and all of his/her effects to the Breeder and receive a full, immediate refund of the purchase price.
This puppy is guaranteed not to develop PRA or pass on the gene for PRA as both of the parents are negative for the gene via parentage or by testing.
This puppy is guaranteed to pass OFA hip certification (**with the exceptions as noted) through the age of 30 months (2 ½ years). If a puppy is thought to have a genetic defect, hip X-rays must be taken per OFA recommendations and submitted to The Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA). Puppy must be microchipped and DNA'ed. Copies of OFA finding must be submitted to the seller/ breeder . Defects must be proven to be genetic and not caused by environmental factors or mishandling by the buyer. ** As subluxation, OCD, HOD and Pano can be the results of poor nutrition, improper exercise and/or excessive crating no warrantee shall apply for these conditions. It is the breeders opinion that unilateral dysplasia and DJD grade 1 is non-genetic and of injury or nutritional origin.
Buyer must show proof that the puppy is spayed or neutered and may obtain a replacement puppy, when available, from seller/breeder at 50% off the original selling price. Buyer is responsible for transportation costs from seller/breeder on the replacement puppy.
