Sales and Health Contract / Shipping Cost / Deposits
All
puppies and adults are as accurately described as possible and are guaranteed to
be healthy and "as we have represented" at the time of the sale. Our dogs and
puppies are priced according to pedigree, quality, and/or possible future
potential. We make no guarantees implied or otherwise that any dog or puppy
sold will gain, or achieve any type of title, but that they exhibit certain
potential and a possibility of doing so based on our evaluation at the time of
the sale.
DEPOSITS:
A non-refundable deposit of 1/2 the purchase price will hold the
puppy of your choice for 30 days or (until puppy is ready for placement), so
that health certificates, final payment, shipping and/or transportation
arrangements can be made. After 30 days, a boarding, and maintenance fee of
$9.50 per day will be added to the sale price unless other arrangements have
been made, and must be paid before, the adult or puppy is transported from our
home or placed in its new home.
When reserving unborn puppies, the same $450.00 non-refundable deposit
will be required. That deposit will be refunded or applied toward the
purchase of another dog or puppy in the event that the desired puppy is not
born, or is not available. The deposit will not be refunded for
puppies due to buyer cancellation.
Hereditary Genetic Guarantee:
We reserve the right to
retain or limit the registry on any puppy. If the puppy you purchase develops a
hereditary or genetic problem, which is untreatable, and life threatening within One Year, the amount of the purchase price
will be applied
toward the purchase of another puppy or adult. The puppy in question will be
returned to Kyrie Achates
at the buyer’s expense and the health problem confirmed by Kyrie Achates
Veterinarian. The replacement will be made with the next available puppy of the
same or comparable quality and is at the discretion of Kyrie Achates.
Shipping of replacement dog or puppy will be at the buyers expense.
Buyer must sign and return health contract to seller by certified mail within 10
days of purchase of the puppy or dog or all guarantees are void and canceled.
Deposit /Refund Guarantee: If a deposit is placed for a puppy and a puppy is not born within one year of placing a deposit, you may receive a full refund of your deposit.
Placement:
Puppies are placed in their new homes at
10 —16
weeks of age or older.
We do this for the health and socialization of the puppy and we find that it
helps to insure a healthy start in their new homes. They will have had all
veterinarian recommended vaccines, and the puppy will have been de-wormed every
two weeks from the date of its birth. At the time of placement in its new home
the puppy or adult will be eating a Premium Puppy or Adult Food. We ask that a
veterinarian see each puppy or adult as recommended for their age group, and /
or at least annually for adult. We also ask that each puppy or adult be
maintained on recommended vaccine and heartworm preventive schedules and exams
to insure proper health for the life of their puppy or adult.
Placement 72 hour Health Guarantee: Any puppy leaving Kyrie Achates will be
healthy and have been checked by our vet and issued a health certificate before
shipping via any airline. We de-worm our puppies every two weeks and before
leaving our home. We take every precaution to insure the safety and health of
all of our animals, but because we have no control over the animal once it
leaves our home,
Kyrie Achates
accepts no responsibility for death or illness of animals which may be caused
by/ or as a direct result of shipping or exposure to other animals and
environments. For puppies shipped by air, we do insure each puppy with the
shipping airline at his or her maximum allowable amount for loss during or
because of an accident during shipping. We do not accept any liability
for any loss or injury as result of shipping, environment, mishandling, neglect,
etc.. We do guarantee the health of
the puppy for 72 hours after purchase and shipment for any non-related
shipping illnesses, and a veterinarian must see the puppy within the 72 hours
after shipment or purchase. If the puppy dies or becomes sick from an illness
not related to its travel or exposure to outside environments and /or animals
within the 72 hour guarantee time,
Kyrie Achates
will replace the puppy or adult or refund the purchase price less any shipping
charges. This decision will be at the discretion of
Kyrie Achates.
The sick puppy or adult must be returned to Kyrie Achates at the expense of the buyer and the illness or cause of death will have to be confirmed by our veterinarian, State, or USDA Veterinarian Lab. Any claims as a result of this guarantee must be made within the 72 hour time period, accompanied by a Licensed veterinarian statement which our vet can verify. We reserve the right to have the puppy examined by our own vet or one of our choice and at our expense to confirm the illness or cause of death. This guarantee does not cover well puppy visits or any type of exam, regular vaccines, de-worming, any parasites, parasite control or prevention, or any veterinary care, treatment or medication cost.
