GUARANTEE:

This Newfoundland has been checked by MICENKO’S veterinarian and has been found to be healthy at the time of sale. However, we carry an unconditional 72 hour guarantee. If your vet finds a serious illness or congenital defect we will accept the puppy back for an exchange within that time. If no replacement puppy is available of equal value, one will be given out of the next available litter.

MICENKO’S guarantees all of our puppies against crippling hip dysplasia (except due to trauma) and any crippling or congenital hereditary defect until it is twelve months of age. Before a puppy is destroyed, the breeder, and the breeder’s veterinarian must have written consent that they concur with the buyer’s veterinarian and that said puppy should be destroyed.

PLEASE NOTE: Hip x-rays that will not OFA certify does not mean that the dog should be euthanized. Many dogs do not have perfect hip joints but never become crippled during their normal active lives. Crippling hip dysplasia is marked by the animals inability to walk or support its normal body weight with prognosis that this condition will not improve but will deteriorate further in the future in the future because of severe hip joint defects.

Proof that the following criteria have been met will be asked for prior to honoringthisguarantee.

1. Newfoundland must be owned by the original buyer named in thus guarantee.

2. Newfoundland has not been subjected to heavy or extreme exercise.

3. Newfoundland must not have been used for breeding purposes prior to 24 months of age and must be OFA certify.

Newfoundland has been provided proper diet and vet care; to keep the dog well groomed; to provide a clean and safe environment for the dog to live in; to give the dog proper attention and will not abuse or neglect the dog. If the dog is chained, left to roam at large, kept in unsanitary conditions, or attack trained this contract becomes null and void. If the buyer breaks any of the above agreements the buyer will, without fee, surrender the dog and AKC papers back to Traci Micenko upon demand.

5. In the event or sudden demise of this newfoundland , MICENKO’S must receive a written notice of the dogs death from the buyer’s veterinarian along with an autopsy report indicating the cause of death.

In the event of suspected severe dysplasia, the following procedures must be followed:

NOTE: THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE VOID IF THE NEWFOUNDLAND HAS BEEN EUTHANIZED WITHOUT OUR BEING NOTIFIED AND OR CONSULTED.

1. Notify Micenko’s by phone or certified letter.

2. Submit x-rays of the Newfoundland to MICENKO’S for evaluation by our veterinarian.

3. MICENKO’S reserves the right to have the Newfoundland examined and/or x-rayed by a veterinarian of our choosing (at MICENKO’S expense) to determine to our satisfaction that euthanasia is unavoidable.

If we find that the Newfoundland has severe hip dysplasia, we will replace the Newfoundland with a puppy of equal value from a subsequent litter. Regardless of situation, no replacement will be made unless the Newfoundland has been returned to MICENKO’S or proof of approved euthanasia has been received by MICENKO’S. MICENKO’S provides no other warranty or guarantee, expressed or implied regarding the Newfoundland including fitness or showing and/or breeding, as it is impossible to predict the future development of a puppy.

MICENKO’S reserves the right to inspect the conditions under which the Newfoundland is living to insure compliance with the conditions of this agreement.

In signing this agreement, I understand the terms and conditions herein and not complying is breech of contract and the breeder has the legal right to reclaim the dog.
