The breeder (Sue Sunnenberg)certifies that this puppy has been thoroughly examined by a licensed veterinarian and is in good health. The health certificate or Veterinarian statement will be given to the purchaser indicating what vaccines and dewormings were administered to the puppy.
The puppy therefore will have received proper vaccinations for his age(most times 3 boosters) and will have had at least 2 deworming's We Do not let pups go before 10 weeks of age .. All further vaccinations, follow-ups and dewormings will become the sole responsibility of the purchaser.
The breeder(Sue Sunnenberg) guarantees the puppy against the following infections for a period of NO MORE than 10 days.
PARVOVIRUS, DISTEMPER, RABIES.
No other infectious diseases or viruses are covered under this guarantee and the purchaser accepts this by signing this guarantee agreement. The Guarantee does not cover Parasites internal or external ,coccidiosiss, Guardia, hypoglycemia, hepatitis
We do not refund or replace for hernia's of any type, they can and do appear as a dog grows .
The breeder (Sue Sunnenberg) cannot take any other responsibility for the puppy once it is no longer under the breeder's care and therefore cannot control which animals the puppy may come into contact with and from which the puppy may then be infected.
I do not cover hydrocephalus in any dog over the age of 6 months .
Therefore, it is recommended that the purchaser not allow the puppy to come into direct contact with any other animals for a period of at least 15 days and to have his veterinarian check the puppy thoroughly to attest to his good health.
It is also a recommendation from the breeder to have a stool sample analyzed within 3 workings days after the puppy arrives to his new home. This is to assure that the puppy has no internal intestinal parasites. Some parasites can develop within a few hours or days , such as Coccidiosis, which is a parasite related to stress and has nothing to do with bad or good breeding. Therefore, all puppies going to new homes should have a stool sample analyzed by the purchaser's veterinarian to make sure the puppy has not developed any such problem. If such a problem should arise the purchaser takes full responsibility to care for the puppy and will not hold the breeder accountable in any way. The breeder has administered only the basic deworming product recommended by the breeder's veterinarian and cannot be held accountable for a problem arising after the puppy is delivered to the purchaser .
The breeder (Sue Sunnenberg) recommends to the purchaser to seek the services of a veterinarian that is knowledgeable about this tiny breed in order to avoid any serious problems.
The breeder WILL NOT BE HELD accountable for adverse reactions that may occur because of vaccinations administered by the purchaser's veterinarian.
The breeder gives the purchaser a period of no more than 3 workings days after taking possession of puppy to have the puppy thoroughly checked by his own veterinarian
If any abnormality should be found by the purchaser's veterinarian, that could seriously endanger the life and health of the puppy, the purchaser must advise the breeder IMMEDIATELY of the problem. If the purchaser does not advise the breeder of such problem IMMEDIATELY, then the purchaser will have no recourse against the breeder and the purchaser accepts this. If Purchaser Choose's to not have the puppy vet checked within 3 days of purchase then all guarantees are null & void .
The purchaser however, if returning a puppy that has been diagnosed with a serious health problem, must take full responsibility in bringing the puppy back to the breeder. The breeder would then consider an exchange for the puppy (NO REFUNDS) when a puppy similar to the purchaser's puppy becomes available.
Under all other circumstances, it is understood that no exchange will take place.
The breeder may take from 12 to 36 months in order to have another puppy available to the purchaser, and the purchaser accepts this condition.

This guarantee does not cover injuries caused by a fall or because the puppy was physically harmed in any way. In the light of this, it is recommended to never leave the puppy without proper care or supervision or left alone on a couch, a table or a bed and the breeder recommends taking extra care when closing doors, especially patio doors with such a tiny breed.
This guarantee does not cover allergies that the purchaser or his family members may develop to the dog or cerebral injuries due to any circumstance.
