Health Guarantee
One Year Health Guarantee On Genetics
Summitt Hill Kennels One Year Health Guarantee
Shipping and ear cropping are not a part of this guarantee and will not be refunded. Please read the following agreement. If
you have any questions, please ask for clarification. When purchasing
one or more of our puppies, you are accepting this agreement.
To the best of my knowledge this puppy is in good health at the time of delivery. The buyer has three working days to have the puppy vet checked by their vet. If
a licensed veterinarian discovers the puppy to be unsound, it can be
returned for another puppy of equal value when it becomes available. No money is refunded. This
is provided the puppy is returned within the three-day period and is
accompanied by a letter from the examining veterinarian stating in what
respect the puppy is unsound. This guarantee is void should the buyer fail to have the puppy examined within the three day period.
Breeder
will not replace puppy for any reason but not limited to allergy,
mortality, landlord's disapproval, disagreement of family, or any other
problems not related to health especially ear cropping. That is an
elective (cosmetic) surgery & doesn't have to be done. That
procedure is the sole responsibility of the buyer. Nor for a puppy's illness caused by neglect, evidence of abuse, exposure to weather, injury, choking, poisoning, etc. No warranty or guarantee is made to the disposition, life-span, size, color, show quality, or breeding quality of any puppy. Breeder
will not be liable for any expenses including but not limited to any
veterinary bills, shipping a replacement, or other expenses. Should
a licensed veterinarian diagnose the puppy with a life threatening
genetic defect, having been there from birth, the breeder will replace
the puppy, limited to one year from the date of birth. Buyer
must return the puppy with the genetical defect along with
documentation to recieve a replacement when it becomes available. No replacement will at any time be made on a deceased puppy until an autopsy is performed to determine cause of death. Such an autopsy must be performed by an accredited institution set up for such procedures such as The University of Tennessee. Autopsies performed by a local veterinarian will not be accepted. The
autopsy will accompany any request for a replacement. Bad bites,
retained testicles & hernia's are excluded from this health
guarantee. If it is evident before the puppy leaves, it will be sold on
limited registration only as a pet & should not be bred. If a puppy
is being sold on a limited registration basis, no registration papers
with any registery (AKC, CKC, ect.) will be given until proof of the
spay/neuter of the puppy is provided from a licensed vet. The buyer
must contact the breeder immediately upon discovery of a genetic
defect. Any delay in doing so, voids this guarantee. The breeder also
reserves the right to have the puppy examined by his/her vet before
he/she agrees to replace the puppy in question. We
do not refund money at any time, only the puppy is replaced with a
puppy of equal value. Buyer will be responsible for the shipping. This guarantee is null and void if the buyer fails to maintain annual check ups with a qualified veterinarian. This guarantee is non-transferable. Proof of said maintenance must be furnished upon request of breeder. No guarantee is given for any kind of worm, coccidiosis, kennel cough, or giardia. These
parasites are all too common to pups and can be contracted from your
water, soil, or boarding facility & they are treatable. Your puppy has been wormed frequently from two weeks of age until your possession. It
is your responsibility to continue to worm your puppy and check for
parasites. No guarantee is given for hypoglycemia (low blood sugar).
This condition is not hereditary & is very preventable. Vaccination schedules must be no less than three weeks apart and no more than four weeks apart for a series of four. Rabies vaccines & heart worm preventive cannot be administered before 16 weeks of age. If you allow your veterinarian to do any of these procedures too early, your guarantee is void.
All
legal disputes are to be settled in county & state of breeders
residency. If for any reason the buyer cannot keep the puppy, please
contact the breeder to help place him/her in another home & don't
surrender him/her to a shelter.
YOU, AS THE BUYER, OR HIS/HER REPRESENTATIVE, OF THIS PUPPY, HAVE READ, UNDERSTAND, AND AGREE TO THE ABOVE GUARANTEE.
Acceptance of this puppy or puppies constitutes acceptance of this agreement.
