~ At the expense of the Buyer, this puppy should be examined by a veterinarian within 72 hours of possession to VALIDATE the Health Guarantee. A copy of the Health Exam from the Buyer’s veterinarian dated no more than 72 hours from the date of possession MUST be emailed/mailed to the SELLER immediately following the exam or the Guarantee is VOID. If a copy of the Health Exam is not received within 14 days of the date said puppy left the SELLER’S possession the Health Guarantee is VOID.
~ Should said puppy be found to be in ill health, the cause of which is clearly attributable to the SELLER , the puppy may, upon a written and conclusive diagnosis and a description of the puppy in question from a veterinarian, be returned to the SELLER for another puppy of equal value when one is available. Return shipping/transportation is the responsibility of the Buyer. Shipping costs/transportation for a replacement puppy are also the responsibility of the Buyer.
~ Buyer understands that a puppy is a baby and that sometimes he/she may get sick due to stress or changes in the environment. He/She is leaving our home and entering a new environment and stress-related illnesses may occur. Soft or loose stools and lack of appetite are very common during the first couple of weeks for a puppy in a new home. Once they adjust and settle these things usually resolve themselves.
~ Buyer understands that Coccidiosis and kennel cough are not covered in this contract, both of which can be common in puppies and neither are life-threatening and are easily treated. Coccidiosis is a parasite that is commonly found in the intestinal tract of dogs and cats and can present itself when the pup is under stress from changes in the environment and the immune system cannot suppress the parasites any longer. kennel cough is self-limiting (like the common cold), full recovery is expected with medication or on it’s own and is not life-threatening.
***All of our pups are raised in a clean and sterile environment with access to fresh and clean water at all times. Coccidiosis is picked up through the ingestion of feces. Some puppies like to eat it or “try” it. As much as we strive to keep their living area as clean as possible we cannot prevent them from this yucky behavior 100% of the time.
IMPORTANT PLEASE READ:
~ SELLER reserves the right to cancel the sale of said puppy at any time for any reason. If the SELLER chooses not to sell said puppy all monies paid including deposit will be returned to the Buyer, UNLESS; the reason we choose to cancel the sale is due to falsified information provided by the Buyer before it leaves our possession and you will forfeit all monies paid and we will no longer do business with you.
Buyer certifies that they have read the Agreement in full and understands and agrees to all terms listed herein.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
~ We HIGHLY recommend you feed your frenchie puppy a species-appropriate raw diet or an all-natural premium human-grade quality food.
~ We are more than happy to help you plan a species-appropriate diet for your new family member. All you have to do is let us know that is the route you want to go.
~ We strongly advise that your puppy is NOT encouraged to run up and down stairs or jump onto and off of furniture. This can cause adverse effects to the growth plates and undeveloped joints of a growing puppy and can injure their spines very easily.
~ Dysplasia can be caused by environmental factors. Meaning; through repeated trauma to undeveloped joints and growth plates in a growing puppy early onset of dysplasia can be caused as a result of injury. It is very important to prevent injury to your puppy from rough play and jumping out of vehicles and onto and off of furniture. Running downstairs is not healthy for your pups elbows, shoulders or spine, either.
~ DO NOT have your puppy retrieve toys or run on vinyl, tile, wood, or ceramic floors where their feet can slide out from under them. This can cause injury to the ligaments and joints in your puppy’s legs.
~ If you have any questions or concerns about your puppy’s development or anything else please just ask and we will be more than happy to discuss your concerns and how to best address them.
