CORLYN CHIHUAHUA’S HIGHLY
RECOMMENDS THAT THE BUYER SEEK THE SERVICES OF A LICENSED VETERINARIAN THAT IS
KNOWLEDGEABLE ABOUT THIS TINY BREED IN ORDER TO AVOID ANY SERIOUS PROBLEMS.
CORLYN CHIHUAHUA’S
certifies that this puppy or adult dog has been examined by a licensed
Veterinarian and is in good health at time of release to BUYER or
shipment. A Health Certificate and/or Vet Statement and a vaccination record
showing what vaccines and de-worming were administered and on what dates will
be given to the BUYER. Any puppy or adult dog will have received proper
vaccinations and de-worming for its age.
CORLYN CHIHUAHUA’S
guarantees the puppy or adult animal against the following infections
for a period of ten (10 ) days: PARVO, DISTEMPER, RABIES.
No other infectious diseases or viruses are covered under this
guarantee and the BUYER accepts this guarantee and agrees to same.
CORLYN
CHIHUAHUA’S guarantee does not cover COCCIDIOSIS,
GIARDIA, HYPOGLYCEMIA, or HEPATITIS.
CORLYN CHIHUAHUA’S
is not responsible for the associated charges of veterinarian fees due
to mental stress or low blood sugar.
Loose stools or COCCIDIOSIS can be caused by stress
and can develop within hours into transport and has nothing to do with bad or
good breeding. We highly recommend that a stool sample be
analyzed within 72 hours of the puppy or adult dog arriving to his new home.
This is to assure that the puppy or adult dog has no internal intestinal
parasites. CORLYN
CHIHUAHUA’S has administered only the basic de-worming product
recommended by our veterinarian and cannot be held accountable for a problem
arising after the puppy is delivered to the BUYER.
If a parasite problem should arise the BUYER takes full
responsibility to care for the puppy or adult dog and will not hold CORLYN
CHIHUAHUA’S accountable in any way.
It is the responsibility of the BUYER to assure that proper
care is given should HYPOGLYCEMIA (Low blood sugar) symptoms
occur. Low blood sugar can be attributed to the puppy or
adult dog not eating enough or the stress of transport.
CORLYN CHIHUAHUA’S will not be held accountable at any
time a veterinarian service is required to care for the sick puppy or adult
dog. CORLYN CHIHUAHUA’S will not be held accountable for adverse
reactions that may occur because of vaccinations administered by the BUYER’S
veterinarian
CORLYN CHIHUAHUA’S does not
guarantee against ALLERGIES that the BUYER or his family members
may develop to the puppy or adult dog.
CORLYN CHIHUAHUA’S guarantee
does not cover injuries caused by a fall or if the puppy or adult dog
has been physically harmed in any way while in Buyer’s care.
We therefore recommend to never leave the puppy or adult dog alone
and/or without proper supervision on the sofa, chair, table, bed, or
any high surface. Take
extra precaution when closing doors, especially patio doors, with such
a tiny breed.
CORLYN CHIHUAHUA’S guarantee
does not cover the following minor flaws or any condition that is minor
or those that can be corrected by veterinarian intervention:
MOLERA; also know as “Open Fontanel” (a soft spot on top of the
head). This spot is a unique
feature of the Chihuahua breed and not a genetic defect. It may or may not
grow completely closed. TRACHEA; Small breeds do sometimes develop a
peculiar cough or “backward” sneeze. This is due to the partial collapse
of tracheal rings. It can be annoying to the owner of the dog, but is not
harmful to the dog. TESTICLES;
In some small breeds it is not uncommon for both the testicles to not descend
at the same time. HERNIAS;
In some dogs there are hernias involving the muscles that surround the
abdomen and they are commonly found at two locations: the first site would be
in the groin area on the inner surface of the rear leg,
an INGUINAL hernia. Though not as common, they are caused by the
inguinal rings not closing at birth. The
second site would be the ‘belly button’ where the umbilical cord had
connected the puppy to his mother. A
hernia at this location is called an UMBILICAL hernia.
Both of these types of hernia are “fixable” and not life
threatening. LUXATING PATELLA;
Every effort has been made to prevent this problem using only dams and
sires that are free from luxation (slipping knee caps), thus preventing
passing on the problem genetically. However,
sometimes this problem can be caused by TRAUMA to the knees if the
puppy does too much jumping from excitement (up and down) or from furniture or
beds, for example. In the event
that the puppy later develops this condition CORLYN CHIHUAHUA’S will
not be held accountable and the BUYER takes full responsibility to
have the puppy treated at BUYER’S own expense. SIZE; We can
give estimated guesses, but cannot guarantee adult size. The
size chart posted on our website is not always accurate.
We cannot second-guess genetics. Some
Chihuahua puppies just stop growing and others get larger than expected. BITE; We
cannot guarantee the bite will not “go off” at a later time, such as
mid-adult, or full-growth. We will state, at the time of sale, or when
asked, whether the bite is scissors, even, or off, one way or the other. It is
not uncommon for a puppies’ bite to change, back and forth, with
growth. The bite has nothing to do with overall health.
COLOR; We cannot
there may be fading or deepening of
color and this is beyond the control of the breeder. TEMPERAMENT; We cannot guarantee temperament as it depends
heavily on environment as well as genetics.
Some puppies will remain mild mannered, some will develop
“attitude.” SHOW PROSPECT;
A show prospect does not guarantee it will WIN in the Show
Ring. There are a lot of
variables that are important that are not in our control when a puppy is
shown. BREEDER; We cannot
guarantee that any puppy will be a breeder.
Again there are many variables; size of adult, structure of pelvis,
number of ovum, etc. In the male;
low production of sperm, non-interest to breed, etc.
IN ORDER TO QUALIFY FOR THIS GUARANTEE,
you must have your puppy or adult dog examined by a licensed veterinarian of
your choice within 72 hours of the date of release or purchase
(to start at time of pick up). Failure
to have your puppy/adult examined within this time element will render this
contract null and void. No
refund or replacement will be made.
Additional Information;
Should the puppy be diagnosed within six (6) months of placement with
any congenital/hereditary disorder which is considered by two (2) unassociated
veterinarians (one being our vet, if at all possible), to seriously impact
the quality of life, short of euthanasia, or require continuous medical
treatment throughout the course of the puppy’s life, CORLYN CHIHUAHUA’S
will provide the BUYER with these options:
A. BUYER can choose to keep the puppy and accept
a partial refund. After proof of spay or neuter and the return of AKC
papers is received, a 50% refund of purchase price will
be given.
B.
BUYER can choose to give up ownership of the puppy to us.
If euthanization is necessary or recommended, a verification from the
veterinarian must be received by the breeder before the
procedure is done. The AKC
paperwork must be signed back over to CORLYN CHIHUAHUA’S
or Marilyn Bishop. We
will replace the puppy within 12 - 24 months with a like animal (same
quality) if the BUYER accepts this condition. Any shipping required is the responsibility of the BUYER.
REGISTRATION; Full
AKC Registration, registration-rights litter paperwork, or a copy of the
litter application will be supplied and will go with the puppy unless
otherwise stated on a PET ONLY contract (LIMITED REGISTRATION OR NO REGISTRATION). We GUARANTEE paperwork will be sent within 90 days of pick up
or release. Both parties agree and stipulate that
the CORLYN kennel name will be added as a
prefix or beginning of the dogs AKC name, and that this will be done before
the paperwork leaves our facility.

sold with the understanding that the puppy or adult dog will live INDOORS,
be socialized properly, and become a member of the family.

home for same, it is agreed that this Chihuahua WILL NOT be placed in
