Health Guarantee

​

 

Your puppy is defined as a Standard Sheepadoodle. Diggity Doodles guarantees the above puppy to be healthy at the time of sale. Your puppy has received the appropriate shots, dew claws removed, and deworming schedule for your puppy’s age. We will provide you with a health record detailing treatment your puppy has received under our care. We offer a three day well puppy health guarantee. Diggity Doodles does not guarantee against conditions such as common and easily treatable parasites, worms, hernias and other minor health issues. 

 

If your puppy is found to have a serious condition when it is taken for a well check visit within the first three days of possession, you must provide a letter from the veterinarian on their company letterhead. Diggity Doodles will set up, pay for, and request a second opinion from another veterinarian either in your local area or ours. If your puppy is still determined to have a serious condition, you will then have seven days to return the puppy to us. We will arrange and pay for return shipping. When we receive the puppy, the purchase price shall be refunded to you.

 

Diggity Doodles does not guarantee the puppy’s adult size, coat quality or color, teeth, bite, or temperament. Adult size and coat colors cannot be determined during the first year or more. Resulting coat color usually remains within a similar color hue. Coat quality and color can be a result of diet and health. 

 

                                                      Replacement Guarantee 

​

 

Diggity Doodles also offers a replacement guarantee within the first eighteen months of life. If a licensed veterinarian diagnoses the dog with a serious genetic condition within the first eighteen months of life, and provides a signed statement on company letterhead detailing the medical problem, Diggity Doodles will set up, pay for and request a second opinion from a licensed veterinarian in your local area. We will then replace the dog with a similar puppy in the next available litter. You are not required to return the dog to us to receive a replacement puppy in this situation. Shipping/travel costs will be the responsibility of the Buyer. The Buyer understands that they will have to wait for the next available litter. If the “well check” is not performed within three days of possession, the eighteen month replacement guarantee is null and void. 

 

Diggity Doodles is not responsible for any veterinary bills that may be incurred by the Buyer. The health warranty is an agreement between the Buyer and the Breeder and does not transfer to a third party. 

 

In the event that the Buyer can no longer care for or house the dog, they must surrender the dog to Diggity Doodles. Also, the Buyer may, at any time, for any reason, surrender the dog to Diggity Doodles.  However, no refunds will be given. Shipping costs are the responsibility of the Buyer. There will not be a co-ownership with the Breeder and Buyer.
