5. CONSIDERATION
Puppy, identified in Section 1, is being sold for the sum of $________ .
A deposit of $________ is due at time contract is signed as a non-refundable deposit.  The remainder is to be paid in full on/by the time puppy is 6 weeks old.  If you use PayPal, there is a 3% additional charge on the total.
If puppy is older than 6 weeks old when contract is signed, CASH on delivery is the only payment method accepted.

Deposits are NOT refundable. If you change your mind, decide that you do not want the puppy, decide to buy a puppy from somewhere else or find out that you cannot have a puppy; you will forfeit your deposit.

By placing a deposit, you agree and understand these terms. By placing a deposit on any puppy, you are making a legal agreement to purchase that puppy. Failure of the Buyer to complete the purchase would subject Seller to lost opportunities to sell the Puppy to some other Buyer and retention of the Deposit is meant to compensate Seller for his possible loss. This deposit signifies the intent on the part of the Buyer to follow through with the Purchase of the Puppy.

The Seller reserves the right to void the transaction if we learn of any reason why Buyer might not be suitable for the puppy – ( i.e. Buyer is found to be an animal abuser, violent person, representative of a pharmaceutical research laboratory etc.) or uses the puppy/dog in any illegal enterprise.

In the case we find out that information you submitted on puppy application is not correct (you own dogs that we were unaware of, your place of residence has changed to a non-suitable for a dog), you would not get your deposit back and puppy will be reoffered for sale to someone else.

If the transaction is voided through some tragic accident, the Puppy were to die or otherwise be seriously injured before it goes to its new home then, of course, the deposit will be returned to the Buyer; unless the Buyer wishes to apply the Deposit to another Puppy, if one is available, or to a puppy from the next available litter.

NOTE: Puppies must be paid off by 6 weeks of age for shipment at 8 weeks of age. Puppies not paid off by 6 weeks, will be offered for resale, and your deposit will be forfeited.

6. HEALTH/TEMPERAMENT
