No exceptions.

I “the breeder” do all my own health examinations, vaccinations and worming of all puppies born here. I am by "no means a certified veterinarian" but I am very knowledgeable on how to examine a puppy for eye/ear/skin issues, hernias (umbilical & inguinal) and temperament issues. I require the "new owner" to take the puppy to his or her own veterinarian within 3 (three) business days for a "certified veterinarian examination". ***Puppies are not seen by a veterinarian at all. The "new owner" is responsible for taking the “new puppy” to the veterinarian of their choosing within 72 hours or 3 (three) business days from date that the contract is signed. This contract will become null and void if not followed accordingly.***
