GUARANTEES


 Pups produced by AGAINST THE WIND KENNELS  are guaranteed for life against congenital defects. These defects include (but are not limited to), HIP DYSPLASIA, BLINDNESS, DEAFNESS, DEMODECTIC MANGE, ENTROPIAN OR ECTROPIAN, HEART DISORDERS, ETC.
If your ATWK pup/dog has one of these defects, you will be entitled to a replacement pup from a breeding of your choice here. Stud Service can be had instead of a pup at the owners discretion. **NO CASH REFUNDS** unless I am no longer breeding dogs. Then full purchase price of pup will be vrefunded- not shipping costs. Requirement of Veterinarian Verification, stating the problem. 
The problem/fault cannot be due to nutrition, improper exercise, fighting or bad care or unproved genetic fault.

If owner wants to return the pup/dog, they are to pay all shipping/health certificate expenses.
Pups are guaranteed for 2 weeks from the date of delivery against infectious diseases, such as PARVOVIRUS, BORDETELLA, CORONAVIRUS, PARAINFLUENZA, DISTEMPER, LYMES DISEASE, ETC. When you receive your puppy it will have had all possible precautions against these diseases. It is up to you, the new owner; to continue a good vaccination schedule.

 

RIGHT OF 1ST REFUSAL: if circumstances arise that the new owner is not able to keep the dog/puppy & needs to sell/give it away, they will call AGAINST THE WIND KENNELS first. If owner has a buyer already lined up, give ATWK a chance to match the price. If giving away, please call me before giving it to the crackhead down the street or taking to the dog pound or the "Humane" Society. Humane Society Refugees welcome, (my bloodline or not). AGAINST THE WIND KENNELS will extend this clause to every pup sold I feel like this may help save some of my dogs from irresponsible owners and the death squad at the Humane Society.
There is no real way to govern this; every person is as good as their word! Please give this serious consideration!!

We the breeder are now the grandparents of your new puppy and as grandparents we appreciate all news related to our progeny especially pictures, brags, news of accomplishments, problems with training or anything we could help with.

You as the new owner have a great 10+ year responsibility to maintain your dogs emotional and physical well-being.

Maintain a sound feeding program.

You must also agree to provide high quality obedience training and socialization for your dog.  We also suggest crate training for new puppies.  The following links describe best methods for crate training. http://www.hsus.org/programs/companion/pet_adoption/dog_home.html  and http://www.ddfl.org/behavior/cratetraining.htm 

Owner agrees to Insure continued health of the dog or bitch by regular veterinarian check-ups.

Maintain proper immunization and keep them up to date. http://duke.usask.ca/~misra/virology/stud2000/vacdogcat/canine.html  
For the first month, plan on keeping puppy at home (except for visits to the vet and short trips to accustom him to riding in the car) until he/she is at least 16 weeks old. This is because puppies get their initial immunity to disease from their mother. As the pup grows, he is vaccinated for continued protection from several potentially fatal viruses and bacterial infections. However, there is usually a gap in protection as mother's immunity decreases and administered immunity increases to a safe level.
APBTs REQUIRE daily exercise for mental and physical well-being. Lack of proper exercise will result in the dog seeking other ways to release pent up energy such as chewing your shoes, furniture, walls or any other available and expensive item. Our dogs go on daily walks, weight pull, chase tennis balls, go hiking etc.   This will continue until they go across the rainbow bridge.

The responsibility, love, and care you give your dog will be returned many times in the years ahead.

 

By signing this contract you are also stating the following:

If for any reason you as the owner cannot or do not wish to keep this animal, you will contact the breeder 60 days before disposing of or giving this animal away. In the event that you plan to dispose or give the dog away, you agree to provide the breeder the guaranteed right to take the dog back without refunding of purchase price.  

Should Buyer/or John Does violate this covenant, Buyer/and all other John Doe shall be liable to Seller (breeder) for $15,000.00 in liquidated damages, plus all attorney fees and costs incurred to achieve a remedy or get the dog back to breeder.

Any deletions or changes to this contract shall be lined out and initialed by both parties, additional amendments will be noted on the back of this sheet followed by the signature of both parties.

ALL DOGS HAVE A $200.00 (Two hundred dollar) NON-REFUNDABLE DEPOSIT. This deposit will not be returned SHOULD THE BUYER CHANGE THEIR MIND, falsify any information provided to Breeder, OR RETURN THE DOG FOR ANY OTHER REASON THAN THOSE MENTIONED ABOVE.

I/We (the owner) agree never to use or allow this animal to be used for any inhumane, immoral, or illegal purposes, I/WE agree to this contract and agree to abide to every letter and we the owner indicate this by my/our signature below.
