Our Health Guarantee
The addition of a healthy Australian
Shepherd will bring you years of joy and companionship.
We feel breeders should raise and sell their puppies under a guarantee.
Gearhart Aussies will stand behind each puppy we place with the
following:
The puppy you purchase from Gearhart
Aussies is guaranteed to be healthy at time of placement; and is warranted for
an additional ten days. The puppy
will be current on vaccinations and de-worming.
It is your responsibility to keep up on the puppy’s vaccinations, per
your veterinarian’s guidance. If
the puppy should contact any sickness, resulting from Parvovirus, distemper,
rabies, hepatitis or par influenza within the ten-day period, Gearhart Aussies
must be contacted immediately. If
the puppy should die of any of these sicknesses within the ten-day warranty
period, Gearhart Aussies must be notified at once; and a replacement puppy will
be provided from the next available litter.
It will be the buyer’s responsibility to provide a written statement as
to the cause of death.
Gearhart Aussies also guarantees against
any heredity or congenital disorder that may interfere with the puppy’s
ability to lead a normal life. This
is a twenty-seven month guarantee, which covers genetic disorders, such
as heart murmurs, skeletal abnormalities, epilepsy, eye disorders, or hip
dysplasia. A veterinary statement
will be required from the date of diagnosis as to the nature of the problem.
A replacement puppy as outlined above will be made available.
If a puppy is purchases for breeding,
show or trialing, the males will have both testicles descended and normal at six
months of age. The females and males
bite shall also be correct at six months of age.
It is the buyer’s responsibility for
veterinarian costs after the date of placement.
