CONDITIONS OF SALE
Health Guarantee
Your puppy is guaranteed to be free from infectious diseases for 5 days after puppy leaves our premises, and guarantees puppies to be free from genetic hip and eye problems for 1 year. Some conditions apply, as stated below. Puppy will leave our home, in good general health, and with no physical defects. The puppy will be examined by a veterinarian prior to delivery.
• Deworming’s and immunizations (see schedule below) will have been completed as shown. While it is generally recognized that intestinal parasites and ear mites are common in puppies, and part of a puppy’s early development, we will make every effort to prevent such parasites. Often, the stress of change and travel can cause intestinal parasites to emerge after the puppy has left its mother. Buyer agrees to continue de-parasitization treatment (see below). De-worming will have been done at age 2, 4, 6 weeks of age and the puppy’s vaccinations will be administered at 6 weeks of age.
• New owners must take their puppy to their veterinarian within 5 days of receiving pup for examination, testing for worms, treatment for worms if necessary, and to schedule ongoing immunizations. Failure to have the puppy examined by vet within 5 days of date puppy was received by buyer, or if purchaser fails to provide required immunizations or deworming’s, will void the health guarantee. Proof must be submitted to Seller that puppy has been examined within the time specified.
• If the purchaser’s veterinarian finds the puppy to be in poor health, the Veterinarian’s written description of the problems must be provided, dated within 7 days of the date purchaser received their puppy. Worms are not considered life threatening.
• New owners agree to keep their puppy at home and away from other dogs, public places, parks and will use care in allowing others from outside their home to pet or touch the puppy. This is to protect the puppy from exposure to parvovirus and other infectious illnesses. New owners will not enroll the puppy in obedience training classes until all immunizations are completed – usually at 16 to 20 weeks of age, or according to their veterinarian’s recommendations and schedule.
• Purchaser agrees to spay or neuter the puppy at or before 12 months of age.
• Purchaser agrees that this puppy is sold strictly as a pet. No breeding rights come with this puppy. Buyer agrees to send proof of spay or neutering to the sellers within one month of the procedure. Failure to do so will result in voiding the health warranty.
• Genetic defects are covered by this guarantee for 1 year. A licensed veterinarian must see the dog and the results sent to Seller if a genetic defect is suspected. Only genetic defects causing blindness are covered for 1 year. Buyer must contact seller for consultation, PRIOR to treatments or surgery for genetic defects, to review all possible treatments. In the event of such a defect, Breeder may elect either (a) or (b) as follows: (a) Purchaser shall be entitled to another puppy from a breeding that is acceptable to both if the vet bills related to the covered defect are equal or greater than the cost of the puppy. If the new price is higher the purchaser shall pay the difference; or (b) SELLER will reimburse the purchaser for his/her veterinarian expenses incurred in connection with the treatment of the defect up to the price of the puppy, not including shipping costs. This health guarantee does not cover reproductive genetic defects. This guarantee is non-transferable and is valid only if the following requirements have been met:
1. A puppy exam must have been completed within 5 days of delivery/pickup.
2. Complete and accurate health records have been maintained for a period of 12 months. This includes all preventive care such as vaccinations & heartworm preventative.
• A Warranty for Hip Dysplasia is provided for one year after the date of the sale of your puppy. Should your dog develop Hip Dysplasia during this time, buyer must provide seller proof. It will be required that X-rays be sent to OFA for scoring. This will be done at the owner’s expense. Buyer must contact seller for consultation, PRIOR to treatments or surgery for genetic defects, to review all possible treatments. In the event of such a defect, Breeder may elect either (a) or (b) as follows: (a) Purchaser shall be entitled to another puppy from a breeding that is acceptable to both if the vet bills related to the covered defect are equal or greater than the cost of the puppy. If the new price is higher, the purchaser shall pay the difference; or (b) SELLER will reimburse the purchaser for his/her veterinarian expenses incurred in connection with the treatment of the defect up to the price of the puppy, not including shipping costs. This guarantee is non-transferable and is valid only if the following requirements have been met:
1. A well puppy exam must have been completed within 5 working days of delivery/pickup.
2. Complete and accurate health records have been maintained for a period of 24 months. This includes all preventive care such as vaccinations & heartworm preventative.
• There are many factors that can influence growth and development of a dog, such as diet, exercise, weight gain, proper veterinary care, etc. Buyer must keep growing puppy at a healthy weight appropriate for its size; must prevent harmful exercise that strains or negatively impacts joints; and must feed their puppy a nutritious and quality brand of dog food.
• Buyer agrees to maintain this dog in good health and will provide routine preventative healthcare. Regular vaccinations, parasite control and preventative medications will be administered as set forth by a Licensed Veterinarian. Veterinarian records will be required in the event of requesting a refund. If routine healthcare has not been provided, this contract will be null and void.
• Buyer understands that puppies may exhibit certain undesirable behaviors (nipping, chewing, barking, marking, etc.). Buyer is responsible for ongoing, lifetime socialization and training of the puppy to correctly teach acceptable behaviors as appropriate for the puppy/dog’s age level. Should Buyer not be successful at training these behaviors on their own, Buyer agrees to seek professional help from certified trainers. Goldendoodles are typically affectionate and friendly, and Doodle Love would not knowingly place a puppy with an unsound temperament with any family. However, no one can guarantee the future temperament of a dog due to environmental influences, improper training or socialization, neglect or abuse. Therefore, there is no guarantee of such conditions or behaviors.
• Buyer(s) agrees to not abandon this dog/puppy to an animal shelter, Humane Society, dog pound, pet mill or pet store. If desired, Seller will help Buyer(s) try to find a suitable replacement home for the dog/puppy should Buyer(s) no longer be able to care for the animal. Seller does not give refunds back to Buyer(s) who decide they can’t keep the dog/puppy, and Seller will not resell the dog/puppy. Sellers only concern will be to find an appropriate, loving replacement home.
3. SPAY NEUTER CONTRACT
Permanent ownership of this dog is contingent upon your compliance with this Addendum.
1. Buyer acknowledges that the Goldendoodle is being purchased for the Buyer to use in personal, domestic or household use (as a pet) and NOT for breeding, medical experimentation, or any other purpose.

i) Buyer agrees to immediately notify Seller in the event of a known or negligent breach of clause 3 of this Contract, said notice will be made in writing or by telephone, followed by written confirmation, from the Buyer to the Seller. Timely notification to Seller may conditionally mitigate the Buyer’s breach.
