Each purchaser of a puppy from
me must realize that I am meticulous with regard to all details in the
raising of my puppies.
Sanitation to me is paramount, vaccinations
are current and documented and I fastidiously maintain the highest levels
of nourishment to maintain and insure proper nutrition.
Puppies and adults alike are maintained
in excellent health thanks to my conscientiousness and the medical expertise
of my Veterinarian.
Over all the years I have raised poodles
I have worked diligently to eliminate known defects from my bloodlines.
Each of the above should contribute
to your assurance that the puppy you receive has been properly cared for
and was turned over to you in the best possible condition.
It is extremely rare, but any puppy
after it has left my care and custody could become medically compromised
in a variety of ways and these include physical injury, hypoglycemia, extreme
environmental conditions, or exposure to pathogens. Also, any top
breeder could potentially have a puppy that develops and/or displays symptoms
of a medical nature that are outside the realm of reasonable care or prevention.
These rare circumstances above have
led me to formulate my guarantee process to prevent as far as possible
any misunderstanding between any puppy purchaser and myself, and to demonstrate
my commitment to fairness in business matters.
1. With regard to any
congenital defect, I guarantee all puppies for one (1) year (from date
of birth) to be free of, but not limited to; Severe Patella Luxation, Leg
Perthes, Hip Dysplasia, Cataracts, Epilepsy/Seizures, Tracheal Collapse,
or heart or liver ailments.
2. Any inherited life threatening
medical illness experienced by any puppy is warranted from one (1) to five
(5) years of age (from date of birth).
3. Physical injuries occurring
outside of my custody are not warranted under any condition.
4. The untimely death
of any puppy up to 5 years of age will always require a death certificate
and autopsy by a competent Veterinary Pathologist prior to any assumption
of liability.
5. All toy poodle puppies
are extremely susceptible to hypoglycemia. This is especially true for
those puppies that may be smaller than a typical toy such as a teacup or
tiny toy. Each and every puppy I place is accompanied by extremely
explicit instructions relative to the prevention of, and treatment of hypoglycemia.
For this reason, I cannot accept any liability for any losses of any nature
as a result of this condition.
6. Should any settlement under
any of the conditions of my warranty become necessary, I reserve the right
to resolve any problem by the following means and with the stipulations
listed below:
a. Replace the dog based
on the findings of MY veterinarian following a consultation with the client
veterinarian.
b. Provide surgical
intervention to resolve the medical defect under the following conditions:
(1). Any needed
surgery will only be performed following consultation with MY Veterinarian
who will determine whether he or an associate would normally perform the
procedure, or for that matter, if the procedure is even indicated.
(2). Should surgery
be required and agreed to by the various consulting veterinarians, I will
pay up to half of all medical costs up to the original purchase price of
the dog.
(For example, if the dog was purchased
for $1500 and a surgery was $1200, I would pay $600. If the surgery
were to be $4000 I would pay a maximum of $1500.)
(3) Under no circumstance
or condition will I assume any liability for any surgery or medical procedure
unless said surgery or medical procedure is performed only after consultation
and concurrence with Rennie's Rose Red Poodles.
c. Any puppy replacement
or refund is never determined unilaterally, it can only occur with concurrence
between the seller and the buyer.
