The following is a SAMPLE of our general Pet Puppy Purchase Agreement (Non-Breeding) for potential puppy buyers. Individual finalized contracts may vary depending on circumstances and details of the individual dogs.
Puppy Purchase Agreement (Non-Breeding)
Terms and Conditions of Sale
Parties:
Pom Beach Pomeranians c/o David and Lori Reinhardt shall hereinafter be referred to as the "Breeder." The original purchasing party, and solely the original purchasing party, shall hereinafter be referred to as the "Buyer."
Genetic and Hereditary Disease:
1.1 All puppies are sound of health and communicable diseases, to the best of the knowledge of the breeder at time the puppy leaves the breeders residence. Every puppy is guaranteed to be free of contagious diseases for a period of 48 hours after leaving the breeders residence. Every puppy is guaranteed to be purebred pomeranian and in accordance with the Animal Pedigree Act, registered with the Canadian Kennel Club. Each puppy has been vet checked and breeder agrees to give the new owner the puppies health record.
1.3. The value of the puppy for the purpose of this guarantee is solely the original purchase price of the puppy, and does not include shipping costs, health certificate, shipping crate or any additional prices declared by the Buyer.
1.4. No guarantee is made as to disposition, conformation, size, weight, color, markings or breeding ability. Teeth are not guaranteed as there are many factors that can cause a bite to go off. It is a common problem to require baby teeth to be pulled. The buyer agrees that they acknowledge this and that teeth will be maintained as needed. If this is not done in a timely manner, it can affect the bite. Recommended time for teeth to be pulled is when the puppy goes under anesthetic for spaying or neutering at about 9 months (to reduce the number of times and stress under anesthetic and cost). The parents of the puppy have acceptable bites. Alopecia cannot be guaranteed as this can be caused by many environmental factors as well as unpredicted hereditary factors.
1.5. Hypoglycemia is a serious health problem but is NOT covered by this warranty and this is generally caused by too much activity and/or too little food/wrong type and is manageable.
1.6. Hernia, Kennel cough, Coccidia and worms are not serious health problems if treated and are not covered by this warranty. They have to be treated according to Buyer’s veterinarian and expense.
1.7. This warranty does not cover abuse, neglect, accidents, ingestion of foreign objects, heatstroke, poisoning, run-away-pet, or any other problem or sickness not caused by the breeder.
Section a): If the initial vet check comes back with a severe congenital problem or the puppy has contracted a life threatening condition (within 48 horse of leaving the breeders property), the Breeder will refund the seller for the purchase price of the puppy or (if available) offer a replacement puppy of equal value. This does not include transportation costs, vets costs, or any other costs accrued. The puppy must be returned to the Breeder within 10 days with written proof from a certified vet before a refund will be submitted. The Breeder must be allowed to contact the vet who made the diagnosis and be allowed to obtain a second opinion from a vet of their choice for the guarantee to be valid (and before any monies refunded). If the puppy is not returned, no refund shall be submitted. Any time after 10 days should a situation arise whereupon the buyer wishes to return the puppy, the buyer will only be offered a replacement puppy at that time (no cash refunds).
Replacement puppy must be of the same sex and quality (if there is a puppy available to take). If there is not a puppy available to take of equal value, Buyer will be notified when the next litter arrives and if there is a replacement available. If the Buyer declines the replacement puppy, then the Breeder shall be under no further obligation and it will be deemed that the Buyer has released the Breeder from all further claims.
1.8. Breeder only accepts these types of payments – Cash, E-transfer, Direct Deposit. Please note that all forms of payment except for cash take time to process. No personal cheques will be accepted. Full payment must be made and cleared before the puppy is to leave the Breeders property.
1.9. The Breeder is solely responsible for supplying the registration papers. Registration papers for all registered puppies will be sent by regular mail which could take up to six months. Registration papers will be with a CKC Non-Breeding Agreement unless otherwise negotiated at time of sale. All dogs are represented as pet quality.
1.10. In the event of any litigation in connection with this contract, the Breeder will be paid reasonable attorney fees by the purchaser. Venue and jurisdiction for litigation arising out of or related to this contract shall lie exclusively in Kneehill County, Alberta.
1.11. The amount to hold a puppy is 30% of the purchase price which is non-refundable should the buyer change their mind and want to cancel the sale anytime prior to pick-up. This fee is to reimburse the Breeder for out-of-pocket expenses and overhead costs/lost sales associated with the transaction. This shall be called a “Holding Fee”.
1.12. The Breeder is not responsible for refund or exchange on the basis of, including but not limited to allergy, Landlord/Tenant, marital, or adjustment problems, etc.
**1.13. The Buyer agrees to inform the Breeder of their intention to re-home the puppy at any time in it's life and to give the Breeder first option of either taking the dog back or buyback. If the Breeder is unable to assist at that time, they will help find a suitable home and the Buyer also agrees to then screen potential buyers for suitability. (We like to keep tabs on the babies & their welfare)
Pet/Non-Breeding Contract
The dog being purchased on this contract is being sold as a pet only. The Buyer will not allow the dog to be bred by ANY other dog. If any dog is purchased from the breeder under the agreement of it being pet only/ non-breeding, the buyer will be considered under breach of contract if this occurs (see below). The Buyer shall spay or neuter the puppy at the appropriate age (usually 8-10 months). The Buyer will send the Breeder a copy of the receipt from the veterinarian office specifying the dog's name, date of procedure and what procedure was done. The Breeder has the option of holding the registration papers until proof of spay or neutering has been provided, the breeder may hold full transfer of ownership until proof has been supplied at their option.
Breach of Contract
This clause deals primarily with the transfer of the dog to a third party, but is not exclusive to such. To protect both the dog and the Breeder's reputation, we have included this clause. We do not want our pups sold to a puppy mill or turning up in a pound or shelter, Veterinarian's office (abandonment), pet shops, auction, or deemed that this animal is not being properly cared for. We hope we never have cause to invoke this clause! If found to be in breach of this contract (specifically, the owners have been reported to the SPCA or other agency to be inadequately caring for the dog, {this being the dog is not being supplied with basic needs and vet care} or that the dog is being hurt or abused), the buyer agrees to relinquish ownership of the dog, and assigns ownership including a signed transfer document back to David & Lori Reinhardt.
If the buyer goes against the terms in this agreement regarding breeding rights, Pom Beach Pomeranians (David & Lori Reinhardt) will automatically be owed the breeding price of the dog of up to $7000 and would be required to forfeit any resulting puppies to Pom Beach Pomeranians and may be required to return the dog purchased from Pom Beach Pomeranians. The buyer could also be reported to the Canadian Kennel Club as they would be in breach of their regulations. These consequences are to be decided by the breeder should this clause need to be enacted. The buyer must report ANY breedings should they be accidental or purposeful to Pom Beach as soon as possible. Pom Beach Pomeranians may choose not to pursue any action should the Buyer show an honest representation of what happened.
The BREEDER neither makes nor implies any warranties or guarantees express or implied, other than those written in the agreement including, without limitation, the warranties of merchantability and fitness.
