of receiving the puppy.  IF the dog/puppy is determined to be in poor health by a veterinarian, the Buyer can choose whether to keep the dog/puppy, assuming all costs for its care, or may return the dog/puppy for a full refund once the breeder receives a written statement from the veterinarian regarding the dog's/puppy's health.  This guarantee will expire three (3) business days after the Buyer takes possession of the dog/puppy.

The guarantee consists of replacement of the dog/puppy with a dog/puppy of equal or better quality, selected by the breeder, when breeder has next available litter of puppies.  Breeder makes no guarantee regarding the loss of the dog/puppy because of accidental death, theft, sickness, any kind of worms etc., or any other loss beyond the Breeder's control, except as stated above.

PET QUALITY & SPAY/NEUTER CONTRACT

The dog/puppy is being sold as Pet Quality which is defined as a puppy that is not guaranteed to show in conformation classes and will not be used for breeding purposes.  If the dog/puppy is sold as a pet with no breeding rights, then the dog/puppy should be spayed/neutered no later than the age of seven months.  No registration papers will be issued until the dog/puppy is altered. When Breeder receives written proof from a licensed veterinarian that the dog/puppy has been altered, the papers to register your dog/puppy will be sent via mail.

RELINQUISHING OWNERSHIP

This Sales Contract is non-transferable.  This Sales Contract will be deemed void if the Buyer relinquishes ownership of the said dog/puppy.  Should the Buyer decide to sell the dog at any time, Buyer agrees to first contact Breeder and allow the Breeder the first opportunity to purchase the dog back.

 The above guarantees are valid only so long as Breeder is breeding Toy and Miniature Australian Shepherds. Should the Breeder cease breeding for any reason, this Sales Contract will become null and void.

In the event of a dispute, the state of Washington will have jurisdiction over the matter.
