2. SELLER’S REPRESENTATIONS
The following conditions apply to the sale of the aforementioned dog: The Buyer has 72 hours from the time of purchase to have the dog examined by a veterinarian and to personally inspect the dog. Any request to return the dog to the Seller must be made within this time period and must be accompanied by a written statement from a veterinarian describing all problems found. Failure to have the puppy examined within 72 hours voids the health warranty. A warranty against genetic defects is provided for two years after the date of sale, related reimbursement limited to 50% of the purchase price. Genetic defects that qualify for reimbursement are those related to hip, heart, elbow, or life-threatening issues. Reimbursement for genetic defects will be made only when a second opinion from a qualified veterinarian and proof of surgery expenses are provided. An official OFA hip rating will qualify as a second opinion. In the rare case of death, the puppy will be replaced free of charge if under 2 years of age. A necropsy report completed by a qualified vet must show the cause of death was caused by a genetic issue. Shipping fees are at the Buyer’s expense. Seller agrees to rehome the dog should the original Buyer so request. This warranty is void in the event of an indeterminable or inconclusive diagnosis. The warranties and obligations provided hereunder are non-assignable. As such, any transfer of the dog will void any and all warranties contained herein. Seller makes no guarantee this dog will not shed or cause an allergic reaction. Buyer understands that Seller’s prediction of coat type, height, and weight at adulthood are estimates only and are based on Seller’s goal to match puppies with families appropriately. This dog must be spayed or neutered before 12 months of age and failure to have this done will void the health warranty. Proof of spay/neuter must be provided to the Seller within 30 days of procedure being completed to maintain your warranty. Failure to have this dog spayed or neutered prior to 18 months of age will require Buyer to pay Seller $20,000.00. Buyer expressly understands that any violation of the spay/neuter requirement and prohibition on breeding described herein will result in damages to Breeder that will be difficult, if not impossible to accurately estimate, because of, among other factors, the inherent difficulties in ascertaining the unauthorized sales of dogs, calculating the loss of income to Breeder, valuing the threat of harm to Breeder's dogs arising from irresponsible breeding practices, and calculating the damages to Breeder's reputation should the dogs be so used. Accordingly, Buyer expressly understands and agrees that any violation of the aforementioned provisions will entitle the Breeder to liquidated damages in the amount of $20,000. Buyer expressly understands and agrees that such amount is not a penalty and is reasonable in light of the factors discussed herein. Proof of spaying/neutering by 8 months of age must accompany any request for warranty reimbursement. This puppy is being sold as a family pet and does not convey with breeding rights. If this puppy is bred, the Buyer agrees to pay the Seller $22,000.00 for every litter produced. Under no circumstances shall the Seller be liable to the Buyer or to any third party for a dog that has been subjected to abuse, accident, negligence, or misuse. Also, under no circumstances shall the Seller be liable for any consequential incidental or special damages resulting from or in any manner related to the dog. Under execution of this contract, all veterinary care and its associated costs are the sole and exclusive responsibility of the Buyer. This warranty does not include worms, fleas, mites, coccidiosis, giardia, or any other parasites, as they are common in dogs and puppies. This warranty also does not include any teeth/bite issues or undescended testicles. Buyer must maintain Pet Insurance on the above-referenced puppy for 24 months from possession date to keep the warranty in place. Failure to do so will void any warranty/guarantee from Seller.
