3 Year Hip, Elbow, Heart and Eye Guarantee  
I offer a 3-year Health Guarantee for Hips, Elbows, Heart and Eyes for all pups that remain on Life’s Abundance Dog food or an equally rated Dog food. LA ranks among the top tier in nutritionally balanced foods and has never had a pet recall. Nutrition & Food:  I begin Life’s Abundance supplements when starting dry food at 4 weeks because of the powerful antioxidants which helps boost the immune system, creating a preventative against skin and coat problems, various forms of cancer, heart issues, arthritis, cataracts, tumors, digestive problems, allergies, and hip dysplasia. All of my dogs are on the LA system.  Because I have no control of what Dog food puppies eat once you take them home, keeping your pup on the “All Life Stages” System ensures me that your pup will be getting a premium food and supplement that I trust and feed my own dogs. By ordering Life's Abundance, they will keep track of each purchase you make in their data system, so that I can easily view each of my customer’s purchases for the life of your dog so no questions will ever be brought up on the quality diet you provided for your puppy.   Feeding other brands of DOG FOOD:  No problem, I will honor my guarantee if you prefer to feed a different High-Quality food than Life’s Abundance but please make sure it has a similar nutritional rating of at least 4 stars on the Dog Food Advisor. I do my best to provide Healthy puppies, but there are some environmental factors, (such as nutrition) that is out of my control as soon as they leave my home. If you decide to feed a different brand you must keep all your receipts to prove you have been feeding a quality food. Initial 
I Agree to feed my puppy/dog a High-quality Diet for Life. I must feed a dog food Brand with a 4-star rating or above on the Dog Food Advisor. Initial 
 
 

• Hips and Elbows: Your puppy has a 3-year hip and elbow guarantee from the date of sale. If this occurs, you must have x-rays taken by your Vet and sent off to be read by a specialist such as OFA or PennHip.  A Veterinarian cannot make this diagnosis it must be a SPECIALIST. Any conditions of obesity or malnourishment for any duration will render this Guarantee null and void. If Veterinarian suspects a Hip or Elbow defect this would be when it is necessary for your Vet to radiograph dog’s hips or elbows and send X-rays to OFA/PenHip or a Hip/Joint Specialist. Veterinarian must sedate dog for the hip or elbow radiograph.  If pup is found to have a Hip or Elbow Defect You must mail or email me the written statement immediately. Final result can only be made by OFA/PenHip or Hip/Joint Specialist. Results stating that the dog’s hips or elbows have been evaluated and rated as Mild, Moderate or Severe must be provided to me.  Note: If for any reason I feel I need a second opinion; I have the option of having the puppy evaluated. I also reserve the right to acquire DNA to determine the dog or puppy as one of my lineages.  Initial

 In Addition, The Following Will Void All Guarantees:  

• Allowing your dog to become obese or underfed at any time. Initial

• We are not responsible for accidents, negligence, or poisonings. Initial 

• Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee against Cancers Initial 
• Parvo precautions: I agree I will NOT take my puppy into public places until my puppy is fully vaccinated against Parvo.  In most cases 7-10 days after your puppy has received its 3rd vaccination.  If your area is high risk your Vet may recommend a 4th round of shots before taking your puppy into public.   DO NOT PLACE YOUR PUPPY ON THE GROUND UNLESS YOU KNOW IT HAS BEEN PROPERLY SANITIZED. When visiting the VET make sure to keep your puppy in your travel crate. Remember this is where people take their sick dogs. If you choose not to use a carrier which I don’t recommend. Bring a towel & carry puppy into the Vets office.  Do not set them down or let others pet your puppy as you do not know what they brought their dog/puppy in for. Once home I highly recommend washing/hands. Kicking shoes off beside your car and bleaching the bottoms, as well as bleaching the bottom of the crate.  If you wear shoes inside your home, I highly recommend not wearing your shoes you wear in public inside your home until your puppy is fully vaccinated. Basically, treating your puppy as if it has no immune system will help keep them safe during this extremely vulnerable time.    Initial

Failure to follow the above contract completely will result in “A Breach of Contract” and shall make this contract null and void. Initial  
 
11. In the event of a dispute under this Agreement, both parties will negotiate in good faith to try to resolve such dispute.   Initial   
 
Please remember that puppies do not come home neatly preprogrammed they are very demanding the first year.   
Puppies will: 
🐩 Pee 
🐩Poop 
🐩 Bite, nip and chew on everything including you/kids 
🐩 Jump up on everything including you/kids 
🐩 Bark  
🐩Whine and Cry 
🐩 Puppies can be extremely rude at times we must teach manners 
🐩 Please know that the first month will be the hardest on you, your family and your new puppy. This will be the transition period. If you don’t have 30 days in you to be overwhelmed then I suggest not taking on a new puppy.  It will be like having a Newborn baby. If you need a quiet home Do NOT take on a puppy. If you are not up for sleepless nights for about 2-4 weeks, please do not take on a puppy.   If you are not up to listening to a puppy whine and cry and bark when first crate training DO NOT take on a new puppy.  If you are not up to cleaning up Pee/Poop accidents in your home or in the crate DO NOT take on a new puppy.  I would rather you back out now or even right before your pup is due to come home then get your puppy home and want to give them right back. You do not get a trial period to try it out and then decide it’s just too hard and want to give your puppy right back, please know that this is extremely hard on the puppy but me as well since now the puppy has left my home and been exposed to a different environment potentially bringing parvo back to my home. As well as the puppy being older and harder to find a family for.   I try to warn you of all this NOW! To avoid having to shuffle a puppy around. That is just not fair to do.  Once you take your puppy home you should not want to give up on that puppy just because of the above issues.  These issues are only temporary and they will subside with proper care and attention. Each week will get easier and easier.  The issues above are a given and I am warning you now about what to expect. So please have the conversation with yourself and/or your family if a dog/puppy is right for you now not after you get the puppy in your home and you find out how much work it truly is. I am not trying to scare you out of a puppy just trying to do what is best for my puppies and making sure they are going into forever homes from the start and not being shuffled around because the family didn’t know what to expect.   If you choose to return your puppy within days or weeks of taking home for any of the above you will not be given a full refund you will be charged a return fee of $500.00. From your purchase price.  Initial 
 
I take immense pride in raising my Doodle puppies and want to see them go on to be the best they can be. Because doodle puppies are so smart, they require an owner that is willing to teach boundaries. If they feel they can be boss they will absolutely take that role. Your puppy can be part of your family for the next 10-15 years. Making obedience training a requirement for your family will have a huge payoff in the long run. Giving you and your dog freedom, happiness and peace of mind for everyone.  Puppies require a ton of your time to mold them into obedient adults.  Please make sure this is an appropriate time and that you are ready to take this new adventure on prior to reserving or taking your puppy home. They are truly like bringing a newborn baby home.  I try to give you plenty of warning on how much work it is to welcome a puppy into your home prior to them going home to try to avoid rehoming later on. I want them to go to the right home from the start. I’d prefer to not shuffle them around so please make sure you are ready and if you need to back out even if It's the night before go home, I understand.  They have to be taught by you what is expected. They do not come home neatly preprogrammed, potty trained, or crate trained this will be up to you to teach. When they leave my home, they are just at the age to start to fully comprehend training. My job is to give you a healthy, smart puppy, once home your job will be to mold and train them to be an obedient future adult dog. I agree to start obedience training with my puppy either myself or with a professional trainer from the start. Initial ​
