Puppy Contract
I understand that my puppy will need to receive an additional DAPPv vaccine at 10,13 & 16 weeks before being fully protected against distemper, parvovirus, adenovirus, and parainfluenza. I understand that there may be additional vaccines my veterinarian recommends.
I understand that my puppy is due to receive a rabies vaccination at 12-16 weeks of age and 1 year of age, and every 3 years thereafter, and that this vaccine is required legally. Rabies is a preventable disease that is fatal 100% of the time.
​
I understand that my puppy has been microchipped, and to switch the microchip to my name I need to register the microchip with the Avid and pay the one time registration fee with the included registration paperwork.
​
I understand that my puppy is sold as a PET ONLY. I agree to not breed this dog, and to spay/neuter by 1 year of age. I understand that it is my responsibility to prevent accidental pregnancies, and to keep my dog under control at all times. In case of accidental pregnancy, I agree to notify the breeder and either spay/abort or pay the breeder $1,000 per puppy. If the pregnancy is allowed to go to full term, I agree to spay the dog after weaning.
​
First Right of Recovery: If the buyer is unable to provide proper care for the puppy or decides to change their mind about caring for the puppy, the seller maintains the first right to recover the puppy at the expense of the buyer. It is the buyer's responsibility to inform the seller of any changes in circumstances and offer the seller the first opportunity to reclaim the puppy at no cost before considering any other course of action. This includes, but is not limited to, selling the puppy to another buyer.
​
The buyer is required to promptly notify the breeder of any problems that may arise or if they are no longer able to care for the puppy. In the event that the puppy is mistreated, neglected, or abused and the buyer fails to voluntarily return it, the seller reserves the right to rescue the puppy. It is important to note that any mistreatment, neglect, or abuse of the animal will nullify any health guarantees previously provided.
