Health Guarantee

This contract is written for the protection of the breeder, the buyer and the puppy.

This Puppy is guaranteed to be in good health to the best of our Knowledge at the time of purchase.  Seller warrants that every precaution and quality care has been taken to insure the physical soundness and mental stability of this puppy to date. Puppy is active, eating well and has normal stools.  The puppy will have started its first set of shots/de-worming, but puppy is not fully protected until it receives all boosters/repeat de-worming. It is the sole responsibility of the Buyer to continue such to completion. Viral areas and worming can become an issue when puppy is under stress/public exposure.... Seller is not responsible for any vet expenses for such at anytime. 

 

Buyers should have the puppy examined by a vet as a further precaution along with a stool sample within 72 hours of time of purchase/pick-up and are urged to do so.   

 

Buyer's Care Requirements: Buyer agrees to care for this puppy which includes; but is not limited to:

A.     Maintaining the puppy on a proper puppy diet and at a weight sensible for its age/size.

B.     Giving the puppy regular care, grooming, exercise, and providing veterinary care including check-ups, heartworm preventative, vaccinations, de-worming. (An annual check-up is advised.)

C.    Confining the puppy to a suitably fenced area, neither chaining it nor allowing it to roam free.

D.    Providing puppy/adult a warm temperature of 70 degree's w/ shelter from sun/snow...

 

Certain breeds are predisposed to certain disorders; the American Cocker Spaniel is no exception.  All dogs have the capacity to have a genetic/congenital flaw.  With regard to the breed, there is always a risk of physical problems even in the most selective breeding practices.  I work diligently to reduce health issues by monitoring bloodlines and breed specific tests and screenings.  There is no guarantee that this or any puppy will or will not have future health issues.

 

Health Guarantee 1 Year: If w/ in 1 years time from puppy's 1st birthday it is found to have a life threatening congenital defect on major organs that prevents the puppy from acting as a pet/companion...Have your vet document this condition w/ a signed written statement.  In event of death an autopsy must be obtained to establish cause.

Only upon my vet confirming your vet’s finding, will a Puppy of equal value be given as a replacement puppy as soon as available. 

We require the return of the defective puppy unless otherwise stated by the Seller, in good clean condition as when it left the seller. All vaccinations/de-worming are required to be current along w/ a healthy diet.  Replacement Puppy and/or returned funds are based on the clearing of the buyers’ method of payment and the return of the original puppy to the Seller.  The Seller shall not be liable for any damages or any claim(s) arising in any event, punitive, consequential, or incidental.  The seller will in no circumstance refund any/part of the purchase price to the buyer. WE cannot assume responsibility for this puppy once leaving our premises. 

 

WE the undersigned understand and accept this agreement and accept full responsibility for this purchased dog/puppy.  We hereby release the seller from any further liability.

 

Outside of this Health Guarantee "Puppy is sold in an AS IS condition".


Deposits:  Half of full purchase price is required for down payment and the remaining balance is due upon puppy pickup.  Deposit is for the purpose of holding the puppy until pick up day.  Deposits are non-refundable.

 

Kennel Boarding:   Beyond 7 days of agreed upon pick up date, we will charge a Boarding fee of $15.00 per day. Additional vaccinations or treatments during the boarding period will be charged to buyer.

 

Seller is not responsible for any vet bills whatsoever at anytime after puppy leaves our premises for routine or emergency care.

Seller is not responsible for any future problems the puppy develops after leaving our premises that could be related to an accident, over heat/cold exposure, repeat exposure to chemicals used for upholstery cleaning, household cleaners, lawn fertilizers, air fresheners, viral, bacterial, long term poor diet....

 

Payments in Full:  The purchase price must be paid in full before delivery of the puppy. If not otherwise specified, the seller requires the balance be made in cash on it’s pick up date from our premises.

 

Size:   Breeder cannot guarantee exact size. Although, the Seller has attempted to grade/evaluate the litter for certain expectations, such is made as an educated guess at best and based on reasonable assumptions considering bloodline, and other factors. The Seller cannot guarantee the future weight of a puppy especially so w/ spaying or neutering which increases weight size.

 

Buyer acknowledges:

   Seller is not responsible for any issues that could be a result of injury from dropping, squeezing, rough play, or stress related from other pets which can cause havoc on puppy's health. Seller is not responsible for any vet bills w/ this in mind.

 

No offspring from this dog are to be sold to any commercial breeder, broker, or pet shop.  Nor shall it be put into a rescue situation.  If, for any reason, you can no longer care for this dog in its lifetime; please return it to me giving me an opportunity to find it a new home.

 

Both Seller and Buyer have read, understand and agree to the terms of this Sales Contract.

 

Buyer has Instructions, has read and understands the puppy's care requirements.
