To keep this guarantee offered to you in force you must have your puppy examined by a licensed veterinarian within 48 hours of receipt. (I will allow 72 hours if the puppy was received on or during a Holiday weekend.) Seller must be informed immediately of the examination's result. During the initial exam, should your veterinarian find the puppy to be a poor health risk or detect any physical health problem that would require further veterinary care (other than required vaccinations and/ or treatment for any type of parasite or bacteria, internal or external) you MUST contact me within 24 hours. A diagnosis of coccidiosis, giarrdia, parasites, or any other type of bacterial infection does not render your puppy unhealthy. The failure of this will result in the cancellation of this guarantee.


Every effort has been made to assure that the puppy you have selected is healthy on the date of delivery and that the puppy has received proper vaccinations and wormings. The Buyer has been informed of these and of future vaccinations and worming due, and will agree to have them done on time, failure to do so will render this contract null and void.

This puppy is guaranteed for 90 days against fatal and life altering congenital disease which adversely affects the health of the animal. This includes severe hip dysplasia which hampers a dog's movement and natural gait and requires surgery to correct, kidney, heart, pancreas, spine, and liver problems of a severe life threatening or altering nature. If the dog dies within this 90 day time frame, the Buyer will pay to have a necropsy done to ascertain reason. If reason is congenital, the Seller will replace the puppy.

A puppy showing any serious genetic or congenital defect will be replaced as follows:
Animal must show the defect by 90 days from when the Buyer received it. Seller must be notified of the problem within 2 days of the licensed veterinarian's determination and have two reports from two unassociated veterinarians stating the same problem and Seller will provide a replacement puppy of equivalent value.

A puppy with a defect must be returned or euthanized with the prior permission of the Seller to qualify for a replacement puppy. Full medical documentation must precede the return of the defective animal. The documentation must explicitly and singularly identify that the cause of the puppy's defect is genetically related. The results of this documentation are to be evaluated by a veterinarian of the seller's choosing to confirm and authenticate the results provided by the buyer's veterinarian. The findings and opinions of the seller's veterinarian are to be considered final and ultimate opinion. All transportation expenses involved in the return of the original puppy as well as the replacement puppy are the responsibility of the buyer.



No refund, in part or in full, will be given.

This guarantee does not cover what in the bulldog breed is considered normal: cherry eye, entropion, "loose" hips, skin allergies, umbilical hernias, elongated soft palate, and stenotic nares (collapsed nostrils).

This guarantee does not include uneven bites, undescended testicles, demodex mange, inguinal or umbilical hernias, fleas, ticks or ear mite, Coccidia and Kennel Cough, which is common in puppies that are shipped and usually caused by bacteria. Kennel Cough is self-limiting and like the common cold, it must run its course. Full recovery is expected and Kennel Cough on its own is not life threatening.

Seller will not be responsible for any medical expenses incurred. Buyer is aware that owning a puppy means trips to the veterinarian and understands that he/she will be responsible for all payments.

All items covered under this guarantee are by replacement only. We do not give refunds.

A returned puppy must be returned to the Seller in good condition, other than the specified problem, at the Buyer's expense. The Buyer/owner will then qualify for a replacement puppy.

Buyer is responsible for ALL transportation costs to and from the Seller on a replacement puppy.

No replacement puppy will be given if the puppy has been bred, spayed, neutered, or euthanized without Seller's permission.

Replacement puppy will be mutually agreed upon by both parties and will be of comparable quality. It is understood that the replacement puppy may not be from the exact same parents of original puppy.

This guarantee applies to the original puppy only and is nontransferable to a second party.

There are certain disorders that may be caused by environmental factors, for example: allergies, thyroid dysfunction, demodectic mange, and other autoimmune disorders that are not covered by this guarantee.

Any physical problem which is or could be the result of injury is not covered under this guarantee.

This contract is null and void if the terms and conditions are not fulfilled.

Buyer agrees that he/she understands this contract fully, and that this contract is under the jurisdiction of the State of Alabama, in the County of Calhoun. It is agreed that the place of venue shall be in Calhoun County, Alabama.

Shipping.jpg

I do offer shipping for my puppies going out of state. This is normally done by one of my professional ground carriers. Shipping will be paid by the buyer. I will not charge anything over the amount the shipping company requires for shipping. Exact shipment cost can't be given until the route is booked. Air shipment is available when temperatures are under 70 degrees for both departing location and arriving destination.   

 If you wish to use ground shipping to receive your puppy, please let me know a few weeks in advance in order for me to notify one of my shipping carriers.
