We agree that the puppy/dog is not purchased for resale nor will it be used or trained for activities which are illegal or for which it is not suited by reason of temperament or conformation.

Health

The puppy/dog selected will come to the buyer with up to date shot record.

The buyer should have the puppy/dog checked by his or her own vet within (3) working days of the purchase to ensure that the puppy/dog is healthy. Breeder’s responsibility for communicable disease is void if not reported within (3) days of purchase.

Replacement is contingent on the puppy/dog being returned to the Breeder in the same condition that it left Breeder’s property, and with a written explanation by the veterinarian of choice. Expense of returning the puppy/dog to the Breeder is the sole responsibility of the Buyer.

The puppy will be replaced, should the puppy develop any life threatening hereditary defect or disease, which affects the quality of life of the puppy within 1 year from the date of birth. The Breeder must receive a written and signed vet documentation of the defect. The Breeder reserves the right to a second opinion from another vet of their choice.

A malnourished, obese, or abused condition will void replacement of puppy. Breeder is not responsible for reimbursement of accumulated expenses, only for the replacement of the puppy.

Registration

The Breeder certifies that the puppy is eligible for limited registration under the Regulations of the American Kennel Club as a purebred Havanese and will provide the proper forms for such registration. The Breeder will provide the American Kennel Club (AKC) dog registration forms to transfer ownership when proof of spay/neutering is provided to Breeder. If Buyer doesn’t intend to show or breed the dog, there is no reason to have Full Registration on you puppy; dogs with limited registration can be shown in any event except conformation. Full Registration does not affect the quality of the puppy; it simply designates the purpose of the puppy. In other words, a puppy registered with limited registration dictates that the puppy is being purchased as a family pet/companion.

The Buyer must provide a proper environment and food of sufficient quality and quantity to keep the puppy/dog in optimum condition, and at all times clean water.
