HEALTH GUARANTEE/PURCHASE AGREEMENT (Revised and Effective 9-19-05)

To the best of breeder/seller's knowledge, this puppy is in good health.

Please Note:  ONLY dogs sold for $500 or more will receive the one year guarantee (puppy replacement due to death of a congenital problem).  You must have a vet statement of "why" the dog passed away and a death certificate from the vet.

All dogs, at any price, receive a three day (72 hours)  vet check/healthy puppy guarantee (a puppy replacement or money back during this period).


72 HOUR VET CHECK/HEALTHY PUP GUARANTEE PROVISION
If within the time frame of 72 hours, the puppy is found unhealthy, buyer has the option of returning puppy to the breeder/seller. Buyer must contact breeder/seller within 72 hours with his/her intent to return the puppy. Buyer must return the puppy  within 10 business days or in a time frame agreeable to buyer and seller.  Return of full payment for the puppy, an exchange puppy or to be placed on a waiting list for the next available puppy replacement are the choices.  The puppy must be returned with a letter of diagnosis from a licensed vet stating diagnosis/reason for return.  Umbilical and inquinal hernias are easily repaired at the time of spaying or neutering and is not a reason for returning puppy.   Breeder/seller is not responsible for any vet bills after the purchase date.

Breeder/seller will be responsible for shipping charges in returning the "unacceptable as documented by a licensed vet"  puppy.  The buyer will be responsible for shipping charges of an exchange puppy.     A returned dog for replacement form must be signed by the breeder/seller and the buyer if puppy is returned in person by the buyer.  If puppy is shipped a copy of the airway bill, stating person sending and person picking up will serve as receipt of the return to both parties.  An exchange puppy of equal value will be provided when available if breeder/seller's vet confirms buyer's vet opinion and shipping or return charges will be buyer's responsibility.  Breeder will have up to one year to provide a replacement.

Breeder does not guarantee size, color or breedability.
