I, the Buyer, do hereby agree to buy the above mentioned Canine, and agree to follow the following terms and conditions: The Canine listed above appears to be in good health at the time of sale, and embodies the characteristics of the breed named above. The breeder believes this above-described Canine is in good health at the time of delivery.
The buyer is to have this Canine examined by a veterinarian of their choice within 72 business hours from time of delivery or pick up. Failure to do so will void the contract and its guarantees. If within those 72 hours the puppy is found to have a life-threatening defect, the buyer may return the puppy for a replacement puppy (with equal or lesser value; with same coat, color or gender) as soon as one becomes available. If the Canine is found to have a fatal or severe life altering genetic defect by the age of 6 months that is diagnosed by the Buyers licensed veterinarian the Buyer has (2) business days to notify the Breeder of the veterinarian's findings in writing, and the puppy will be returned to the breeder within a reasonable timeframe after the exam (as determined by the Seller). This problem must be recognized by a licensed veterinarian and a written copy of the test/procedures performed and the diagnosis must be sent to the seller within 10 days of the diagnosis of the condition.
Furthermore, no treatment or surgery shall be done on the puppy until the seller is contacted and has time to confirm for a second opinion. In addition, Buyer will be responsible for any and all vet costs associated with the puppy. No refunds will be given to the buyer for vet costs. When the buyer has decided to return a puppy (with defects such as those listed below) and the seller has been notified, the puppy must be returned to the seller within 2 weeks of the written notification to the buyer.
If the buyer decides to keep the puppy in the event of a defect being found (and does not make arrangements to return the puppy within two weeks of notification of the default), the seller no longer has any obligation to replace the puppy at any later date. If the puppy is returned due to life threatening defects (those listed above), and if Larisa's (the Seller,) vet agrees with the diagnosis of the condition after conferring with a buyer's vet, then a replacement pup will be issued as soon as one becomes available.
Buyers initials to agree to terms on first page:
In the event of the puppy's death a necropsy must be performed to determine the cause of death and the buyer will be responsible for these charges; Breeder is in no way responsible for payment of this exam, or any other medical or veterinary charges. The Buyer understands that the Breeder offers no cash refund. If the buyer qualifies for a puppy replacement then the purchase price will be put towards another Canine of equal or lesser value when one becomes available. Under no circumstance will the refund be made in lieu of a replacement. If the Buyer rejects a replacement Puppy, all sales become final. The Buyer is responsible for all expenses in the return of the Canine. Under no condition will a breeder replace this Canine where the breeder was not advised of it being ill beforehand or euthanized without the breeder's permission.
All age appropriate shots for the Canine have been given, and a record of this vaccination history is supplied at the time of delivery. The Buyer agrees to maintain the Canine's health in good condition, and to provide yearly examinations, vaccinations, heartworm, and any other usual procedures necessary to ensure good health. The breeder has done everything possible to produce healthy sound Canines both by breeding only dogs that are free of hip, elbow, and spinal disc dysplasia, and by raising the Canines in the best way possible in regards to diet, exercise, socialization and veterinarian care.
The buyer agrees to provide a suitable safe area for this Canine. The Breeder guarantee does NOT cover any liability for any injury, or illness caused by stress induced hypoglycemia, Canine influenza, pneumonia, parasites internal or external, ringworm, coccidiosis, Giardia, hepatitis, other diseases/illnesses/viruses, or mites after leaving our care. There are all types of parasites that lie dormant and that can be brought on by stress or change of environment due to allergies etc., and there is no way to predict how a pup will cope with this change. This is why the buyer agrees not to change the puppies food for at least 1 week after pick up as not to stress a puppy anymore than necessary. Also, there is no guarantee against any disease contracted after leaving Bernedoodle Love Kennel premises. I do my best to provide a clean, healthy, safe environment and to ensure that the buyer is getting a healthy pup.
There are many factors that can influence the growth and development, such as diet, exercise, weight gain, etc. The Buyer assumes the responsibility to carry on with appropriate vaccinations, exercise and feeding schedules, recommended by the Buyer's veterinarian.
The Seller promises to try to be a lifelong assistant with the Buyer's Puppy in regards to being available for advice if needed. The Breeder/Seller (Larisa), cares deeply for all the animals that go onto new homes and requests the Buyer to call or email if needed. Also, Larisa has first right of refusal of the puppy if the buyer at any time is no longer able to keep or no longer wants the dog in question. In that case, Larisa will try and find the puppy a new home.
Buyers initials to agree to terms on second page:
The Breeder/Seller can offer no further guarantees once the care of the Canine is no longer under their control. Bernedoodle Love Kennel only guarantees a pet quality dog and in no way implies or guarantees the ability to breed or show the dog. Therefore, the Breeder does not make any guarantees as to the Canine's adult size, weight, hair, coat, skin conditions, temperament or trainability of the Canine. The Breeder neither makes nor implies any warranties or guarantees express or implied other than those written in the agreement including, without limitation, the warranties of merchantability and fitness.
This document constitutes the entire agreement between the breeder and buyer with legal respect to the sale. If there are any disagreements or discrepancies, they must be handled in the state of North Carolina and County of Wilkes, at the Buyer's expense in regards to all legal fees.
