Refunds and transferring selection
The Early Reservation program requires a $200 deposit that is non-refundable unless specific instances occur. The Early Reservation program also requires a $400 payment upon selection of puppy.
Reasons a deposit or payment would be refunded:
A. Buyer specifically wants a female (or male puppy) and there are no healthy puppies born of that gender. This will constitute a deposit refund and Buyer is no longer obligated to pay any money nor will Buyer receive a puppy.
B. Buyer’s puppy dies for any reason while in Breeder’s care. With all other puppies sold, Breeder cannot revoke reservation from another Buyer. This will result in a refund of Buyer’s deposit (plus additional payment if applicable) and Buyer is no longer obligated to pay any money nor will Buyer receive a puppy.
C. If Buyer marks only one color or white marking preference but there are no puppies available of that color, Buyer may request a refund or choose a puppy of a different color. For instance, if Buyer wants a flashy fawn puppy, but only plain fawns are available, Buyer can request a refund. No refunds will be provided because of undesirable markings. For instance, if a puppy has a crooked stripe on the face but Buyer wants a straight stripe, there will be no refund. Breeder is the sole decider in determining whether a puppy is flashy, plain, reverse brindle or brindle. Deposit refunds based on color and white preferences will be at Breeder’s discretion.
Reasons a deposit would not be refunded:
A. In the instance Buyer has made a deposit but doesn’t want to choose a puppy, or Buyer does not pay the $400 payment due at selection, or Buyer doesn’t like any puppies born to the litter, no refund will be granted and all puppies will be sold to other buyers.
B. Buyer selects a puppy but later decides they do not want to follow through with the purchase for any reason, including failure to make the $400 payment. Any puppy not paid in full by 8 weeks of age will no longer be reserved for the Buyer and will become available to the general public unless other arrangements have been made with Breeder. No refund of deposit or payment would be granted.
If for any reason Buyer’s selected puppy dies while in the care of the Breeder, Buyer is permitted, but not required, to select any other puppy. Buyer’s name will go to the top of the heirarchy to choose any of the available puppies, any puppies already selected by other buyers are off limits. The deposit and this agreement will transfer to the latest puppy selection.
If at any time Buyer has decided they prefer a different puppy rather than their selected puppy, Buyer is permitted to transfer selection to any available puppy after the remaining waiting list has made their selections. This agreement and the deposit would transfer to the latest puppy selection.
Breeder will never revoke a selected puppy from other buyers to fulfill the reservation in this agreement.
