NOTE: 99% OF PEOPLE THAT COME TO ME FOR A DOG ARE LOOKING FOR ONE TO WORK THEIR COWS , I HAVE FORMED MY GUARANTEE TO ACCOMODATE THIS FOCUS . I REALLY DON'T MAKE MUCH PROFIT FROM THE PUPS , THE GUARANTEE IS REALLY FOR THE PUPOSE OF KEEPING TRACK OF MY PUPS AND MONITORING MY BREEDING PROGRAM DOWN LINE TO KEEP QUALITY HIGH . MY BREEDING PROGRAM IS DESIGNED NOT TO MAKE A LOT OF MONEY , BUT SOLELY TO PROVIDE ME WITH THE KIND OF DOG I WANT TO TRAIN MYSELF....REDUCING THE RISK OF BUYING A WEANED PUP IS A WAY THAT I USE TO ENCOURAGE PEOPLE THAT USE COWDOGS TO GIVE MY WELL BRED PUPS A CHANCE. I WORK BEYOND THE LIMITS OF THIS DOCUMENT EVERYDAY TRYING TO PROVIDE A CHANCE FOE A GREAT COWDOG EXPERIENCE.
Beleive me , I have done all I could do to get the genetics right so I can consistenly produce dogs that are suitable for catle work.
CRBC PUPPY REPLACEMENT GUARANTEE;
*THIS puppy guarantee has to do with with working instinct , general health , hip and eye problems as well as buyers responsibility.
*This covers first time cross' , and proven cross' ONLY .
*Discounted pups , free pups and pups sent with you with no papers are NOT covered .
The only BorderCollies that I breed will work CATTLE well , I work with any buyer to get them a dog that suits their purpose .
*I may require that I pick the pup to make the guarantee valid. (People have brought their grankids out and picked the "cute " pup or the one that is marked like "their old dog" ect. and I know that is not the dog that will make them a hand , for instance.) A pup may end up being a sheep or goat dog and still work and but I will still help you get a dog that works cattle for you ( possibly trade you out for a dog the same age) .
*Raising and training a pup to maturity is also a factor. For instance , if you take a 6 month old out and get it stomped my moma cows and ruin it or beat it for running horses -please don't call me crying .Some pups take longer to turn on than others. Dogs need proper kenneling , supervision and training for the first 2 years. I offer FREE VIDEOS to help avoid these problems.
*BECAUSE OF THESE VARIABLES , dogs with problems must be returned to my farm or possibly videoed , for my veiwing between 10 and 16 MONTHS FROM BIRTH for the REPLACEMENT guarantee to be in effect .
*Hip and eye trouble or seizure problem ,needs a vet report for me , on these issues , I will replace the dog with the best dog I can up to 2 years , simply because I want to know immediatly if there is a genetic problem like this going on down line.
*ANY ADULT , STARTED , OR TRAINED DOG ,purchased for any amount of money is transfered "as is "AFTER a buyer sees the dog on stock . If CRBC bred the adult dog , the hip and eye guarantee is transfered with the purchase of an ADULT dog to 2 years. These are the conditional factors roughly speaking .
Documents in writing are legal , but meanwhile I operate far above the terms of this WRITTEN GUARANTEE to make sure people that get my pups are satisfied.
