For the protection of the purchaser and the seller, the puppy must be examined by a
licensed veterinarian within 72 hours of taking possession of the puppy. If the puppy
is found to have a life threatening hereditary congenital defect or any major health
problem at this exam, a replacement puppy of equal value will be given, provided that
the seller is notified within 24 hours after the exam. The replacement puppy will be
mutually agreed upon by both parties and will be of comparable quality. It is
understood that the replacement puppy may not be from the exact same parents as the
original puppy. If the buyer does not take the puppy to a licensed vet within 72 hours
after the exam, this warranty becomes null and void. This puppy must be returned to
the Breeder along with the AKC registration papers within 72 hours, at no expense to
the breeder, with a signed document from two non associated licensed veterinarians
stating the defect or problem. We, the breeder are not responsible for any veterinarian
bills acquired by you, the buyer.
Some disorders may be caused by environmental factors, for example: cocidia, giardia,
kennel cough, cancer, demodectic mange, scabies, pinkeye, allergies and other auto
immune system disorders and these are not covered any other intestinal
worms/parasites, as they are common in dogs and puppies. Our puppies are vet
checked prior to leaving our home and you will be provided with his/her medical
findings. This guarantee does not include uneven bites, undescended testicles, Class I
or II insignificant murmurs, inguinal or umbilical hernias. We, the Breeder will not
be responsible for Parvo, Distemper or Cornona Virus after 48 hours of the sale, as
these are highly contagious diseases and they can be contracted immediately after
leaving the Breeder. We will not be responsible for illness or health problems, which
are diagnosed after this time period, except where stated in this contract.
Your puppy is guaranteed for 1 year from the date of birth against life threatening
congenital defects. If within that time a life threatening congenital defect (not to
include parvo virus, distemper virus, heartworms or any nutrition related disease) is
attested to by TWO non-associated veterinarians and the reason is congenital, the
Breeder will replace the puppy with another puppy of same breed, quality and price,
if our Vet agrees with the required written reports, for the two non-associated
licensed vets. The breeder must be notified at the onset of the problem in writing,
with a report from the veterinarians. The replacement will be subject to availability
(within 12 months). We do not refund money. We the breeder, are not responsible for
any veterinarian bills acquired by you, the buyer. We will not be responsible for
illness or any health problems, which are diagnosed after these time periods.
In the unlikely event of this puppy's death in the first 1-year, due to congenital
defect, a statement from a Veterinarian confirming such an event and cause is required
before any action will be taken by the Breeder. If cause is unknown, an autopsy is
required. The Breeder will not be responsible for Vet or Medical bills incurred.
This contract is valid for the original buyer that purchased the puppy from MapleWood
Boxers. If the puppy is transferred to another owner this contract is null and void.
This contract is null and void if any of the terms and conditions are not fulfilled.
The guarantee must be signed and returned to me, Lynn Blauser on or before purchase
date or it becomes null and void. By signature below, Buyer acknowledges the
contract has been reviewed and agreed upon.
