Sales Contract
I, Nancy Bongard (the breeder) agree to sell to:
(the purchaser)
for the sum of ___________, one pure bred Golden Retriever puppy as
described below.
Sex_______________________ Dewormed on ________________
Colour_____________________ Initial Vaccination______________
Age___________________________
CKC Registration number (microchip ID)______________________________________
I also agree to transfer the legal ownership of this dog to you and
register the transfer with the
Canadian Kennel club (CKC). I will provide you with the individual
registration certificate after it
has been delivered to me by the CKC.
I warrant that your dog is in good health, free from communicable disease
and internal parasites,
has recently been examined by a qualified veterinarian and is of sound
temperament when given to
you. You are requested to have your own veterinarian examine
the dog and confirm its health
within 72 hours of the purchase. I agree to reimburse you for
reasonable medical expenses
incurred by you to treat any disease or parasite which in the opinion
of a veterinarian has infected
the dog while it was in my possession, providing I am notified at the
time of diagnosis and given
the option of treating the dog at a clinic of my choice. Once
the puppy is in your possession, all
veterinary bills other than as indicated are your sole responsibility.
I further warrant that I have made all reasonable efforts to ensure
your dog is free from hereditary
health problems. If your dog develops hereditary hip or eye disease
before it is two years old, that
renders it unsuitable to the purpose for which it was acquired, I will
at my option provide a
replacement puppy or a refund of some or all of the purchase price.
The original dog must be
returned to me along with all registration certificates, papers and
medical records. Conditions
covered by this warranty are blinding eye defects ( as certified by
a canine opthamologist) and
grade 2 or worse hip displasia (as certified by OVC or OFA).
The opinion of my veterinarian or
qualified OVC staff shall be final. The purchaser must notify
the breeder immediately of any
condition that may result in a claim against the breeder.
No further warranty is expressed or implied
All dogs are sold on a non breeding contract that may only be altered
at the discretion of myself,
my heirs or successors.
The purchaser agrees to abide by the following guarantee:
The purchaser will maintain the dog in good physical and emotional health
by providing shelter,
nutrition, grooming and medical care including annual vaccinations.
The purchaser will feed the dog a quality dog food suitable to the dogs
nutritional requirements
and will maintain the dog at a suitable weight. Overweight or
underweight dogs are more likely
to have health problems and such a condition during the dogs life will
void the breeders warranty.
The purchaser will ensure adequate physical exercise and activity, but
must not allow the dog to
run at large without the supervision of a responsible adult.
Neither will the dog be left chained or
tied out or denied human companionship. Excessive hard physical
training, road work or
confinement to a crate for long periods of time will not be allowed.
The purchaser will take the dog to a recognized obedience training class before one year of age.
The purchaser will keep the breeder advised of the purchaser's current
address and phone number
and will notify the breeder within one month of any change in address
or phone number. The
breeder reserves the right to visit the purchaser and verify the condition
of the dog.
The purchaser must never allow the dog to be used for experimental or
research purposes at any
time during the dogs life.
The purchaser must notify the breeder if for any reason he cannot or
will not keep the dog any
longer. The purchaser may not sell, trade, donate, give away,
co-own, euthanize or part with
your dog in any way without notifying the breeder and granting the
breeder first right of refusal to
take back the dog. The purchaser must then supply and sign over
ownership of the dog and
provide all health records and clearances to the breeder. If
the breeder agrees to other disposition
of the dog, the purchaser must advise the breeder with full name, address
and phone number of
the new owner. The new owner must agree to abide by the conditions
of this original contract.
Failure to abide by the conditions of this contract will void any warranty
on the part of the
breeder.
The signatures below attest that the parties have read, understood and
agree to abide by the terms
of this contract in its entirety. Violation of these terms by the purchaser
gives the breeder the right
to repossess the dog and to immediately have the ownership and non
breeding agreement signed
back over to the breeder.
Signed .......
