Pet-Puppy Guarantee and Contract
Page 2 of 2



The seller agrees to warrant the following:
 
  1. The dog/puppy is purebred and register able with the American Kennel Club (AKC). The registration papers will be provided to the Buyer upon their return from AKC, following receipt of full purchase price of the dog/puppy. All “pet quality” puppies are sold with AKC LIMITED REGISTRATION papers, and it is understood by the buyer the requirements needed to later obtain FULL REGISTRATION, should they so desire. (see attached Clarksburg Kennel Limited Registration Policy)
     
  2. Seller warrants the health of the dog for 7 days after the Buyer takes possession of the dog in order that the Buyer has the opportunity to have the dog examined by a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM). If a pre-existing malady is discovered during the examination, Seller will refund or replace the dog/puppy (at Sellers option) under the provision that the Buyer supplies the Seller with a written letter from the examining veterinarian stating the nature of the malady, and that all paperwork and documentation be returned to the Seller, along with the dog/puppy at the Buyers expense.
    Pre-existing maladies, for the purpose of this contract are defined as those conditions existing in the dog at the time of the sale.
    This definition does not include follow-up worming, or treatment for intestinal upsets due to transportation and/or relocation of the dog.
    Death occurring due to accident or neglect during this period is not the seller’s responsibility.
     
  3. The dog/puppy will be current on vaccinations at the time of sale, and seller will provide vaccination records to the buyer at time of delivery. Puppies are tattooed in the right ear (occasionally both ears) at the age of seven (7) weeks of age. Tattooing is our choice of permanent identification for our kennel.
    HIP WARRANTY: Our “pet quality” puppy's hips are warranted to pass OFA preliminary evaluation or the German SV “a” stamp program at the age of 12 months old. This warranty expires at 12 months of age. We recommend preliminary X-rays as early as 6 months old if you foresee any possibility of problems developing. Notify us as soon as a problem is suspected with the puppy's hips. Before a puppy is replaced, the Seller will request a copy of all x-ray films taken of the puppy, and a copy of the OFA preliminary evaluation. At our discretion, we may possibly recommend a “second opinion” x-ray be taken (at the owner’s expense).
    Note that feeding a quality brand of food, appropriate exercise and not allowing your pup to become “overweight” has a tremendous impact on the proper development of your puppy and his good health.
    Note that a “pet quality puppy” (a puppy not sold for breeding purposes) that may be evaluated with “mild” HD, can under most conditions, live a normal, pain free life, therefore, replacement of a puppy with “mild HD” will be determined on an individual basis with a mutual agreement between the breeder and the owner of the pup.
    NOTE: This is a replacement warranty only, and the seller’s responsibility will be exclusively to REPLACE the puppy with another puppy of equal value.
    This warranty only applies to Hip Dysplasa, and does not apply to accidental injuries.

    This warranty will become NULL AND VOID if your pup is bred prior to x-ray’s.
     
  4.  NO OTHER GUARANTEE HAS BEEN EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED.
     
  5. DEPOSITS: Deposits are accepted to hold a puppy from the above specified litter, for purchase by the buyer until the puppy reaches the age of eight (8) weeks. Deposits are non-refundable, with the exception that if the seller is unable to deliver a healthy puppy of the gender desired, then the complete deposit will either be refunded to the buyer or applied to another puppy from another litter. This will be at the “buyer’s” choice.
     
  6. Puppy must be enrolled, attend and complete an eight week puppy obedience class, or an agreed upon session of training/ socializing class.
     
  7. Any dispute or legal matters concerning this contract are to be settled in NY State, in the County of Rensselaer.
