PUPPY GUARANTEE
Meadow Wood Kennels guarantees all puppies sold by it to be free from communicable diseases at the time of sale only. All puppies sold will be current on all puppy shots as of the date of sale and will have been recently wormed and dew clawed.
We guarantee all puppies sold by us to remain free from life threatening congenital defects for the period of One Year from the date of birth. We take every step to insure our dogs are healthy by having them tested by the OFA as well as CERF. We recommend that you as the puppy buyer, also have these test performed by licensed vets. You have until the puppy is 28 months of age to have the tests performed.
All puppies will be given a Veterinarian examination before ownership is transferred to the buyer and will come with a State of New Jersey Health Certificate signed by our veterinarian if shipped. All available health and vaccination records for the puppy will be mailed to the new owner soon after the puppy is shipped or picked up.
The buyer will have 72 hours from the time they receive their puppy to have it examined by a veterinarian of their choice. Buyers will be provided with a "Puppy Health Check and Veterinary Release Form" which must be completed and signed by a licensed veterinarian of the buyer's choice when the puppy has the above examination. Failure to have this form signed by the veterinarian and returned to Meadow Wood Kennel’s will void the puppy guarantee.
The following minimum condition must be met in order for this Puppy Guarantee to remain in effect for the period stated:
1. The puppy must receive veterinary care at periodic intervals to include but not be limited to regular health check-ups, worming and the continuation of the vaccination series which has already been started.
In the unlikely event that your puppy is discovered to have some serious genetic defect within the guarantee period, you must contact us in writing outlining the defect immediately upon its discovery. After your puppy has been examined by a veterinarian of our choosing and that practitioner confirms the serious genetic defect, we will replace your original puppy with one of the same breed and sex which we feel has equal value to that of your original puppy. You can also if you wish keep the puppy, but have them spayed or neutered at your expense. Once you can give me proof them the puppy was indeed spayed or neutered, I will refund you ½ of the original puppy purchase price. Most breeders require return of the puppy, I just could not imagine giving up my puppy that I have grown to love over the past 28 months. Replacement puppies delivered under this Guarantee will be covered by the same guarantee as the original puppy.
This Guarantee accrues to the benefit of the original purchaser only. It is not transferable and will become null and void if any interest in the puppy is sold, leased, in any other way transferred to a third party or if the puppy is no longer under the direct care, custody and control of the original buyer unless permission to do so in writing has first been obtained from Meadow Wood Kennels.
