Sales Condition and Terms

I am here for my dogs all the days of their lives. I expect e-mails and/or phone calls and progress reports, and I love photos! I will do everything in my power to be here to answer questions whenever I am needed. Good news or bad news you will always be free to contact me. My dogs are sound in mind and body when leaving me. I am an AKC inspected kennel in complete compliance with AKC's care, conditions and paperwork policies.

This animal is guaranteed to be in good health at the time of sale, and has had temporary inoculations against canine distemper hepatitis, both leptos, adenovirus type 2, corona virus, paraninfluenza and parvo virus. The buyer has a health guarantee of 48 hours in which to have the animal checked by a licensed veterinarian and is urged to do so. IF the veterinarian finds anything seriously wrong with the animal it will be exchanged for another animal which the breeder/seller deems to be of equal value (at once or when available) provided a letter from the examining veterinarian is offered for our records as evidence of the animal's illness and the animal is returned within the guaranteed period. No exchanges will be made after this period, and no cash refunds will be made under any circumstances.

The Heartworm Society says that almost all dogs in the South test heartworm positive. The microfilaria die monthly so a light positive on some of the new tests only means that the animal was bitten by a mosquito, not that the animal has a full blown case of heartworms. Monthly treatment will continue to kill microfilaria that are caused by the mosquito bites and thus the worms never reach the heart. In the case of any animal showing light positive for heartworms, as long as the animal(s) are treated monthly they will eventually test clean for heartworms provided the buyer(s) maintain their monthly heartworm treatments. All dogs from this seller are treated monthly for heartworms.

Sales conducted over the Internet via e-mail are legally binding and are considered part of a written contract. Refusal to complete payment for any animal will result in the animal being sold to another buyer, and any funds/monies may be forfeited at the sellers' discretion. Any buyer that pays for an animal and refuses to accept that animal is subject to fees and fines for the housing, care, and all other expenses having to do with that animal for the time that the animal was held. Amounts of fees or fines will vary depending on the amount of time the animal was held, and the expenses incurred. This amount is not limited to forfeiting the entire cost of the animal if the buyer backs out of the purchase and has had the animal held while expenses were being incurred. The transfer of funds is agreement to these terms and conditions.

The seller assumes no financial responsibility after the animal leaves the premises. Example: medical expenses, landlords' disapproval, allergy to animals, mortality, disagreement of family, or any other reason expect congenital birth defect causing death. In the event of death caused by congenital birth defect, registration application, bill of sale, and any other paperwork given at the time of the animals' transfer to the new owner, accompanied by Necropsy Report, should be returned to the seller/breeder and a replacement animal of equal value will be provided when available.

All animals bought from this seller/breeder are to be returned to this seller/breeder if the owner ceases to own them for any reason. They may not be sold, traded, or re-homed with out the express consent and approval of the seller/breeder.

In some cases animals may be sold with limited registration, or a spay/neuter contract. In cases with limited registration the limit may be lifted by the seller/breeder after the animal has reached the age of two (2) years and has been tested for health aliments know to the breed. (Example: hip dysphasia.) Animals with limited registration reaching the age of two years old should be certified with the OFA and the results of that certification shown to the seller/breeder in order for the limited registration to be lifted.
