Muletown Labrador dogs go great lengths to produce healthy and sound puppies. The puppy is warranted to be free from any serious disease or conditional defect on the recommended testing list for the Labrador Retriever. The breeder does not warranty on any puppies passing their OFA scores. Even though the breeder assured both sire and dam have passing OFA scores there is no guarantee that the puppy will pass their scores. The breeder cannot be responsible for the buyer to allow the puppy to jump on or off of items too tall for the puppy or allow too hard of training or play at a young age.

 

Buyer agrees to take the puppy to a licensed veterinarian within 7 days of original transfer. If a veterinarian finds a serious problem with the puppy that is guaranteed as listed above or proven to be sick prior to leaving the breeder, the buyer may rescind the contract. Buyer must notify the breeder within 5 days of the evaluation and include veterinary records and diagnosis. Buyer must also give the breeder the right to clear communication with the veterinarian working on the case. If the buyer elects to rescind the contract because of health problems, upon buyer's surrender of the puppy and the puppy;s executed registration papers to the breeder, then the buyer will receive a full refund of the purchase price. If the buyer chooses to have the veterinarian treatment performed before the puppy is returned, the breeder is not responsible for the cost of veterinary care, and only the purchase price of the puppy will be returned. There are no guarantees implied or intended, unless otherwise agreed upon in writing by both Muletown Labradors and the buyer.  

 

The above warranties are not transferable to a new owner. Any puppy that is returned to the breeder for any reason will be done at the buyers expense for a refund.

 

The buyer understands that even though the breeder goes above and beyond to follow the Labrador Retriever necessary health testing and produce a healthy puppy that is free from congenital health conditions, not every condition can be tested for, and there’s always a risk when purchasing a puppy.
