Microchip # (if applicable): _________________________
Stipulations of Guarantee:
1. Purchaser is required to have the puppy examined by a licensed veterinarian within two (2) days of delivery in order for guarantee to begin to be in effect. If indicated, Buyer will provide his/her veterinarian with the health certificate issued by the Breeder's veterinarian no more than seven (7) days prior to shipment or, in the event the Buyer picked up the puppy from the Breeder, to date of Buyer taking possession of the puppy.
2. If, at the time of the initial examination, the buyer's veterinarian indicates
that such animal appears to have an active illness or disease, Buyer is required
to contact the Breeder within 48 hours of said examination to advise of buyer's
veterinarian's report, and a copy of same will be faxed to dogbreedersdirect
and to the Breeder.
Breeder will provide Buyer with name and phone number of veterinarian
who issued health certificate, and Buyer will provide his/her veterinarian with
this contact information. Buyer's veterinarian will initiate contact with Breeder's
veterinarian to discuss and resolve any health concerns he/she believes to be
at issue. If indicated, Breeder's veterinarian may provide Buyer's veterinarian
with any test results in support of his/her decision to certify the puppy
as healthy.
Veterinarians will provide a collaborative report to the Buyer,
the Breeder and dogbreedersdirect. Any resolution will be arrived at based upon
the findings presented in the veterinarians' collaborative report, whether in
favor of the Buyer or the Breeder, at the discretion of management.
3. If, within one (1) year from the date of birth only, a dog is certified
by a licensed veterinarian to have any congenital or hereditary disorder which
adversely affects the animal, Buyer is required to contact the Breeder within
48 hours of said examination to serve notice of buyer's veterinarian's report.
The Breeder will be responsible for providing a replacement puppy of equivalent
value. However, Breeder will not be responsible for any veterinarian's fees
or costs related to such examination(s).
If indicated, Buyer will return the animal to the Breeder
to exchange for another pet of equivalent value.
4. Neither BeagleStore.com nor the Breeder makes any guarantee as to the breeding or show capabilities of the animal, and same will not be held liable for any failure in attempts at breeding or showing. Breeder sells puppies for companion purposes; any other use of dog by Buyer is not covered in any way by this guarantee.
5. In the event of any legal actions arising from or in connection with this guarantee, the Breeder will be paid reasonable attorney fees by the Buyer. Jurisdiction and/or venue of any litigation arising out of or related to this contract shall lie exclusively in the county and state in which the Breeder operated his/her breeding business at the time of purchase.
Paperwork and/or documentation for registration of all registered puppies will be sent by regular mail. The Breeder is not required to provide registration for any puppy and, if Breeder does not elect to do so, registration and costs of obtaining new papers will be the responsibility of the Buyer. However, we will assist the Buyer in any other reasonable manner in obtaining these papers. (Registration can take up to six to nine months to complete and receive papers.)
Limitations of Guarantee:
This guarantee is not transferable to any other individual, group, organization or entity. Dog must be properly cared for and nourished, and all vaccinations must be kept current in order to maintain effect of this guarantee. No replacement will be provided if a female has been bred. No replacement will be provided after registration application has expired. No replacement will be provided for reasons of hip dysplasia if dog is not properly nourished, exercised, or if dog is permitted to become overweight. (Buyer must follow Breeder recommendations, including recommended dog food(s), vitamin and mineral supplement administration.) No replacement will be given if dog is over-exercised, which will be construed to include: excessive running, overworking or jumping the dog. (Purchaser must be aware that running on asphalt or concrete can seriously damage the young bones and joints of a puppy and in such a case, the guarantee is null and void.)
All above-mentioned conditions must be met or guarantee will be considered null and void in all parts thereof. All laboratory verification will be performed by a licensed veterinarian. The Buyer is responsible for transportation costs to and from Breeder. Breeder is not responsible for any veterinarian expenses incurred and accumulated by Buyer on returned or replaced puppy or dog.
