If within this time period, a licensed veterinarian determines that the puppy has a genetic defect that will adversely affect the puppy’s health or that the puppy died as the result of a genetic defect, we will provide the buyer with the below options if this should occur. This needs to be the opinion of two unassociated Veterinarians, one being our Veterinarian, if at all possible, that this genetic defect will a) seriously impact the quality of life or b) require continuous medical treatment throughout the course of the puppy's life or c) in the case of the death of the puppy, was the direct cause of the puppy’s death.

        1. The buyer can choose to keep the puppy and accept partial refund. With receipt of proof of spay/neuter, we will refund 50% of purchase price or the buyer can choose to give up ownership of the puppy to us and we will replace the puppy within 12 months. The buyer accepts this condition. Buyer will be responsible for any costs in returning the puppy to the breeder.

       2. If the two veterinarians agree the genetic defect requires euthanasia or was the direct cause of the puppy’s death, we will replace the puppy within 12 months. The buyer accepts this condition.

 

15. Within two business days of the veterinarian’s certification of your dog’s illness, defect, or death, you must notify the breeder of the name, address, and telephone number of the examining veterinarian. Failure to notify the breeder within two business days will result in forfeiture of the rights of the health guarantee. A copy of the veterinarian certification shall be presented to the breeder no later than five days after you receive it-failure to do so will also result in forfeiture of the rights of the health guarantee. Any refund shall be made no later than 14 days after the breeder receives the copy of the veterinarian certification. If a genetic defect is discovered by a veterinarian in the puppy, the veterinarian certification must include:  a letter from the veterinarian on business letterhead, stating the nature of the genetic defect and/or in the case of death, the necropsy with the cause of death. The letter will have to state that the health condition is a genetic defect or the death was a direct result of the genetic defect in the case of a necropsy. A physical description of the puppy and the puppy’s microchip # must be included as part of the letter for identification purposes. The veterinarian phone number must be included on the letter as the Breeder must be given permission to discuss the health condition or necropsy directly with the veterinarian. Failure to do so will result in the forfeiture of the rights of this health guarantee.
