Puppy Fees and Contract

SHIPPING One of the most frequently asked questions is "What do we charge for shipping?" Our shipping fee is $275 unless it is arranged as part of one of our training packages. I believe that "shipping" a puppy is one of the safest, fastest ways to get a little one transported from us to you. We do everything that we can do to make the trip as stress free for the puppies as we can. We live 2-1/2 hours from the Dallas/Fort Worth Airport and I encourage early

departure timesfor the puppies out of Dallas. I take the puppies to Dallas the night before their flight and spend the night in a hotel with them. I feel more comfortable knowing that the puppies have had a good meal the night before, good night sleep and they are ready for their plane ride. I do not like to have them do a long care ride and then have to get on the plane. Our puppies are sent in a "Pet Porter" that is airport approved, 2 baby blankets, chewy and a toy. Each puppies is sent with enough food for a meal in case of a lay-over in transit as well as a frozen water bottle to ensure they will have fresh, cold water to drink during the duration of their flight. I take care of all the flight arrangements, all I need from you is your closest airport and the rest of the details fall into place.

Puppy Adoption Contract

Edwards Training agrees to sell all puppies with full breeding rights included unless stated otherwise by Mark and Becky Edwards. Edwards Training gives a three day general health guarantee. Seller warrants that the described puppy is in good health at the time Buyer assumes ownership. At the expense of Buyer, Buyer must have the puppy examined by a licensed veterinarian within 3 days of receipt of puppy. If, as a result of the examination, the veterinarian determines that the puppy is not in good health, then the Buyer may return the puppy to the Seller for a full refund of the puppy purchase price, not including shipping, return costs or veterinary bills. Hypoglycemia, intestinal worms, hernia, uneven bite and coccidia are not covered under this guarantee. Written verification by the veterinarian of any disease found must be presented to the Seller prior to return of the puppy. After 3 days from purchase the buyer assumes full responsibility for the puppy's health and development. (Note: Contract is void if Buyer does not complete all the necessary puppy hood vaccinations (minimum of 3), deworming and give heartworm medication as directed by your veterinarian)
The seller guarantees the puppy is free of life threatening "genetic defects" up to 12 months of age. Warranty expires when the puppy turns 12 months old. Hereditary and genetic defects are determined by the examination and confirmation of two veterinarians. All costs of the veterinary examination and any other charges will be absorbed by the buyer. Cyrptorchidism is not covered under this congenital health guarantee IF sold as a Pet ONLY.
If said puppy developers a life threating genetic condition within 12 months from date of birth, Edwards Training upon receiving documentation of the the vet reports, will provide Buyer with one of the following options:
Buyer may return the puppy to Seller and receive a replacement puppy of like quality (but not the same breeding) from the next available litter. Costs and related expenses of returning the puppy to Seller shall be Buyer's sole obligation.
OR
Buyer may keep the puppy (provide proof of spay or neuter) and receive one-quarter (1/4) of its stated purchase price (excluding shipping or veterinary bills).

Buyer agrees that he/she is not acting as an agent in the purchase of this puppy and that the puppy will reside at the home of the Buyer. The puppy will have access to a fenced yard, will not be chained or tethered and will be provided with proper housing, diet, exercise and veterinary care. The buyer agrees to provide necessary vaccinations and adequate health care including proper dental care, heartworm medication, etc for the life of this puppy. Yearly check-ups and booster vaccinations are required and should be brought up-to-date on the health record provided at the time of purchase. Buyer also agrees to keep the puppy in a safe environment and not allow this puppy to run at large under any circumstances. Failure to do so will void the warranty.
If, for any reason, buyer is unable to keep this puppy, Seller shall be given the first right of refusal. At the sole expense of buyer, the puppy shall be returned to Edwards Training.
