The Puppy/Dog is being sold as a _______ (Pet or Breeder) for the purchase price of $________. This does NOT include shipping or vet certificates or crates. I do NOT give cash refunds, if for some reason a puppy is returned, a replacement puppy of equal or lesser value will be given when available. The buyer understands that there are no guarantees regarding the possible fertility of this animal if sold as a breeder. The buyer also understands that there are no guarantees as to the show ability of this animal as there are too many unpredictable factors if sold as a show dog. Additional fees are required for all animals being sold as Breeders or Show animals. Puppies or dogs sold without breeding rights will be given registration papers shown as not for breeding AFTER the buyer has submitted the appropriate vet paperwork showing the puppy has been spayed OR neutered.
HEALTH GUARANTEE: We have a 1-year genetic health guarantee on all our puppies. Buyer's new puppy/dog MUST be checked by your vet, at your expense, within 2 business days of buyer taking possession of the puppy. If the puppy/dog is not taken to the vet within this time frame after purchase, the one-year genetic health guarantee contract is NULL and VOID. The puppy/dog may be returned for a replacement only if a licensed veterinarian diagnoses this animal as having serious illness or genetic deformity. A serious illness means a shortened life span or a painful life span. The seller is not responsible for any veterinary costs or fuel costs associated with this puppy/dog after release from this kennel. The seller is only responsible for a replacement of the puppy if a genetic deformity is found by a licensed veterinarian, is certified, and reported to the breeder within 2 business days after finding the genetic deformity. The seller will not provide a replacement if apparent neglect and/or improper care has been given to the puppy. The seller will give NO CASH REFUND on any returned puppy. Only a replacement will be given when the seller has one available. The seller cannot guarantee that a replacement puppy will look the same as the puppy to be replaced. The buyer must provide veterinary documentation to the seller of the genetic deformity prior to the replacement puppy being given. The seller will offer a puppy to the buyers choosing a replacement for equal or less value of the puppy being replaced. It is the consumer’s right, pursuant to section 828.29, Florida Statutes, to receive a certificate of veterinary inspection with each dog or cat purchased from a pet dealer. Such certificate shall list all vaccines and deworming medications administered to the animal and shall state that the animal has been examined by a Florida-licensed veterinarian who certifies that, to the best of the veterinarian’s knowledge, the animal was found to have been healthy at the time of the veterinary examination. In the event that the consumer purchases the animal and finds it to have been unfit for purchase as provided in section 828.29(5), Florida Statutes, the consumer must notify the pet dealer within 2 business days of the veterinarian’s determination that the animal was unfit. The consumer has the right to retain, return, or exchange the animal and receive reimbursement for certain related veterinary services rendered to the animal, subject to the right of the dealer to have the animal examined by another veterinarian.
