Section 3: Health & Welfare
The Breeder has taken every care with breeding, rearing and the welfare of the dog. The dog is believed
to be in good health and is sold in good faith. The Breeder makes no warranty however as to the health
and disposition of the dog.
Every effort has been made to avoid any possible inherited conditions. Relevant, existing screening
schemes have been used and copies of the relevant results are available.
The Purchaser(s) is strongly advised to take the dog to their Vet, soon after purchase (i.e. within 72hrs) for
a general check and advice on inoculations and worming.

Should it become necessary, the Purchaser(s) should be aware that the return of a dog can be very
difficult, especially emotionally and, having drawn the attention of the Purchaser(s) to this, the Breeder
cannot be held responsible for any distress caused by the return of the dog. Where possible, an alternative
dog will be offered in exchange.
Section 5: Potential of Dog
Although any description of the dog as being of working or trial quality is given in good faith, it is a
condition of this sale that no warranty can be given as to the ultimate working/trial/breeding potential on
maturity of the dog
Section 6: Endorsements
This dog is sold subject to the following endorsement:
The Kennel Club Pedigree supplied with this puppy has been endorsed by the Breeder ‘progeny not
eligible for registration’. This is to help protect against the unacceptable use of the puppy for breeding such as so called 'Puppy Farms'. This endorsement will normally be removed only at the request of the
above Purchaser(s), and providing the puppy has reached the minimum age of 18 months.
Section 7: Tail Docking and the Puppy Purchased
You have been given a certificate proving that the puppy you have purchased was docked legally by a
Veterinary Surgeon. You need to keep this certificate safe, as you may be called upon by the authorities to
prove that the puppy was docked legally, at any time in the future. If you need to transfer ownership to
another person at any time, please ensure that the certificate accompanies the sale or transfer.
At the time of docking, the breeder believed that some, or all, of the litter would be used or sold, with the
intention of being worked in accordance with the regulations connected to the Animal Welfare Act 2007.
The law appreciates that not every puppy docked will grow up with the necessary attributes and may never
eventually work. It therefore follows that if you do not work your puppy, neither you as the owner, nor the
breeder, will be liable for prosecution, provided you can produce the certificate. Information and the
regulations covering this aspect, are shown on the following website: http://www.cdb.org/awa/index.htm
Section 8: Re-homing of the Dog
The Purchaser(s) agree that if, at any stage in the dog’s life, the Purchaser(s) need to re-home the dog,
the Breeder will be the first to be informed and the Purchaser(s) will, if the Breeder requests return the dog
to the Breeder. This Puppy must not be sold or transferred without the prior knowledge and written
agreement of the Breeder – the Breeder will always be willing to help, if necessary, with the re-homing of a
dog that Verstone Gundogs have bred, for whatever reason, throughout the dog's lifetime.
