HEALTH
AND HEALTH GUARANTEE
All precautions have been made to insure that this puppy is in excellent health
at the time of purchase including vaccinations at 8 weeks of age and has been dewormed on a regular basis. The
breeders’ veterinarian has made a final health check and a current health
certificate is included in your new puppy packet. It is recommended that
additional vaccinations be given at 12 and 16 weeks of age, with annual booster
immunizations. Additionally, male show dogs have been checked and
verification has been made that both testicles have descended at the time of
pickup. _____________ (Initial) Accidents can happen with new
puppy dogs, and this contract does not cover testicle trauma after the
puppy goes to his new home.
The Breeder warrants the puppy to be in excellent health and free from parasites
at the time of purchase/pickup, but has not made and does not now make any
further warranties as to the puppy’s condition after pickup. It is the Buyers
responsibility to prevent illness and injury by providing necessary booster
vaccinations, veterinary care, proper nutrition, fresh water, shelter, training
and supervision. The breeder has made every effort to breed healthy dogs and has
raised this puppy to the best of her ability.
It is recommended by the Breeder that the Buyer take the puppy to a Veterinarian
of his/her choice and gives three days from the date of delivery of the puppy in
which to do so. If, within those
three days, a veterinarian finds the puppy to be unsound, unhealthy, or
possessing a serious genetic defect, a statement in writing must be provided to
the Breeder by that veterinarian documenting said condition for Breeders’
veterinarian to review. Upon confirmation from Breeders’ vet of said
condition, Buyer may return the puppy, registration and all of his/her effects
to the Breeder and receive a full, immediate refund of the purchase price.
All transportation costs involved are the responsibility of the Buyer.
This puppy is guaranteed not to develop PRA
or pass on the gene for PRA as both of the parents are negative for the
gene via parentage or by testing.
This puppy is guaranteed from
crippling hip dysplasia for a period of 26 months (2years + 2 months). At
the age of 2 yrs the puppy is to undergo a physical exam (PennHip) to determine
the soundness of the puppy’s hips
by a certified vet. If after this
exam the dog experiences any crippling effects, the buyer must send a copy of
PennHip’s report to the breeder. The
owner may at their disgression keep the existing puppy or return it to the
breeder. Buyer must show proof that puppy is spayed or neutered and may obtain a
replacement puppy, when available, from seller/breeder at 50% off of the
original selling price. Buyer is
responsible for transportation costs from seller/breeder on the replacement
puppy. No replacement puppy or
refund will be given if dog is spayed/neutered
or bred prior to PennHip certification.
C. REGISTRATION
The Breeder certifies that the dog has been
registered under the Regulations of the American Kennel Club as a
purebred Mastiff and will provide the proper forms for transfer of ownership of
this registration as soon as they are received from AKC.
Buyer agrees that the Breeders kennel name prefix “Hearts Desire
Mastiffs” is the beginning of the puppy’s registered name on the
Registration certificate, and understands that the puppy will be named and
originally registered with AKC by the Breeder, and also agrees
that the registered name will not be changed.
_____________ (initial)
The Buyer agrees to register transfer of ownership of the puppy
with AKC within 60 days of receiving the AKC registration papers and that
this transfer will be recorded in the name of the party listed on this contract.
The buyer also agrees that this puppy will not be registered with any other
registration service other then the American Kennel Club or the Canadian Kennel
Club.
D
OWNERSHIP RESPONSIBILITIES
The Buyer agrees to maintain the dog in a humane environment and properly train
and care for it. Specifically the dog will be properly licensed and Inoculated
against rabies, distemper, parvovirus, and other communicable diseases as
recommended by a qualified veterinarian. The dog will not be allowed to roam and
will be socialized and obedience trained appropriately.
The Buyer agrees that this puppy will not be raised on slippery surfaces, not be
allowed to bound up and down stairs, rough-house with larger dogs, jump down
from heights or out of cars, etc, as this type of activity will contribute to
the breakdown of joints and growing bones, dislocation of shoulders, hips and
damaged elbows.
The Buyer further agrees that the puppy’s weight will be under strict
supervision until the dog reaches his/her second birthday. It is far better to
have the dog slightly underweight then overweight as excess weight contributes
to structural breakdown of the dog. Buyer also agrees nothing will be given to
the dog that would encourage rapid growth including steroids, nutritional
supplements ,and anything that promotes rapid weight gain.
(Glucosamine/Chondroitin sulfate supplements and Vitamin C excluded)
It is the breeders’ recommendation
that this puppy should be raised exclusively on Nutro Natural Choice Large
Breed Puppy and supplemented with Ester C until the age of 24 months.
Please do not feed any other brand of puppy food. If
you feel you must feed a different brand of food please contact breeder first.
E
SPAY AND NEUTERING
It is recommended that Bitches which are purchased as family companions
only (not for breeding or show) and dogs which are judged not to be of show and
breeding quality should be spayed or neutered
around twelve months of age.
F
SHOW QUALITY PUPPIES
The Breeders will use their best judgment and the advice of other fanciers
in evaluating the puppies as to show or pet quality. There is no guarantee that
a puppy evaluated as "Show Quality" will be successful in the show
ring as an adult or as a breeding animal and no warranties are made to that
effect.
Buyer agrees that if said dog is shown and becomes a Champion, a picture along
with a copy of Championship certificate will be sent to the Breeder at the above
address. Breeder may publish this information stating that Hearts Desire
Mastiffs (Breeder) is the Breeder of the dog along with the Buyer stated as
being the owner.
G RIGHT OF

of the dog (at anytime during its’ lifetime) the Breeder is to be notified
immediately of such case. The dog is not to be sold or placed anywhere without
written consent from the Breeder. The Breeder will help assist in any placements
of said dog/puppy. The Breeder will always accept the dog/puppy back at no cost

for it’s whole lifespan.
