The puppy is free from any congenital defects at the time of purchase, and any issues raised from our vet check have been disclosed and discussed with the Buyer. The Buyer is welcome to have this puppy examined by a licensed veterinarian of their choice within 72 hours of receiving this puppy, if the buyer does not take this puppy to the veterinarian within the specified time, then the Buyer agrees this puppy was in good health at the time of purchase. If the Buyer’s veterinarian finds this puppy to have any serious or chronic health issues, the buyer may immediately return the puppy along with the report and diagnosis issued by the veterinarian and the Breeder will offer a full refund of the purchase price.
Two Year Genetic Health Warranty
Breeder guarantees this puppy is free of any hereditary or congenital defects to the best of our knowledge at the time of sale. A warranty is provided for 2 years from the birthdate of this puppy for any hereditary congenital defects that would cause the dog to lose quality of life, shortening their life span. All medical documentation of diagnosis and records must be provided to the breeder directly from the licensed veterinarian specialist who has examined and diagnosed the puppy/dog and they also must be willing to provide and confirm in writing that it is considered an inherited genetic disorder, defect or disease. Genetic eye diseases must be documented and diagnosed by a Veterinary Ophthalmologist. Genetic Heart Diseases must be diagnosed by a Veterinary Cardiologist, diagnosis by the buyer’s general practice veterinarian alone will not be accepted by the Breeder as proof. Buyer will be refunded the full purchase price of this puppy/dog in total.
Hip Dysplasia Warranty
A Warranty for Hip Dysplasia is provided for two years from the birthdate of this puppy. If this puppy is diagnosed with hip dysplasia, the Buyer must provide OFA or PennHIP certified x-rays proving a genetic Hip Dysplasia diagnosis. All hip testing to be done at Buyer’s expense. Breeder will not honour a diagnosis from the buyer’s licensed veterinarian, the hip x-ray must be sent into the OFA (Orthopedic Foundation for Animals) or PennHIP for a confirmation of the dysplasia diagnosis and a copy of the results must be sent directly from the OFA or PennHIP to the Breeder’s veterinarian. Breeder will not accept documentation sent from the buyer only. The only reason we won’t accept a diagnosis from a general vet is because not all veterinarians are proficient at diagnosing hip dysplasia or positioning and/or scoring hip x-rays. We do not require the puppy/dog returned to us and we do not offer a replacement puppy. If a hip dysplasia diagnosis is confirmed, then Buyers will be refunded half the puppy’s purchase price. Buyer agrees to maintain their puppy at a healthy weight. The buyer agrees to postpone strenuous physical exercise until the puppy is over one year of age, as 80% of hip dysplasia is caused by improper exercise. This includes running with your puppy, treadmills, using stairs, strenuous hikes, jumping and sharp turns. However, the puppy needs safe, proper and necessary amounts of exercise, which is important for bone health and development. The Breeder is not responsible for any injuries sustained, illnesses contracted or death after transfer of the ownership to Buyer.
