HEALTH GUARANTEE
Welcome to Balsam Ridge! Our puppies are raised with lots of supervision and care. Before they leave us, they will have health examinations by a certified Veterinarian, wormed, vaccinations UTD, tail and dew claws removed. They will be introduced to many things to insure a well sound and happy pup, included a lot of bathing and grooming.
-
Clients have 72 hours from time of receiving puppy to have their new pup examined by a certified Veterinarian. If said puppy is not examined within this time frame, any guarantee is null and void.
-
We offer a 2 year Health Guarantee against genetic illness such as kidney, liver or heart disease ..etc. This does not include problems that are not genetically based of course.
-
Our guarantee is a replacement guarantee, never a money back guarantee.
-
We understand that you may have become very attached to your puppy, so we sometimes allow the original pup to be kept. A request to have pup spayed or neutered before we send a replacement would be made. Breeder has final choice whether someone is allowed to keep their original pup.
-
Puppies are not held without a deposit. Deposits are NON-REFUNDABLE but may be transferred to a puppy from the next litter...or when one is available. The replacement pup must be of like value and could have different coat colour and parentage.
-
Balsam Ridge never guarantees size or colours...as only Mother Nature can determine this in the end.
-
Buyer is responsible for all shipping costs for puppy or dog returned and for recieving replacement puppy.
PLEASE NOTE that we never reimburse any kind of Vet fee.
