Breeder Contract
The following agreement is between Christy Tripp, Tripp and Dieringer's Miniature
Pinschers, hereafter referred to as "Breeder" and__________________, hereafter referred to as "Purchaser", for the sale and
purchase on one purebred dog of the Miniature Pinscher breed.
In consideration of a purchase price of $________ which two hundred dollars is a
nonrefundable deposit, the breeder transfers in fee simple all rights, privileges and responsibilities associated with the
ownership of a Male or Female dog of the breed to Purchaser as of the date and time specified below. This represents the entire
agreement between Breeder and Purchaser in an outright sale.
It is agreed between breeder and purchaser that this dog is being acquired as a
family companion dog or as a working dog to be used for tasks appropriate to its breed such as search and rescue, therapy
dog or for exhibition in AKC conformation, obedience, or agility competition.
We agree that the dog is not purchased for resale nor will it be used or trained
for activities which are illegal or for which it is nor suited by reason of temperament or conformation.
The breeder warrants
the dog to be in good health as of the time of sale. In the event of any genetic disorder which is sufficiently serious in the opinion of two qualified veterinarians, and
all nutrition guidelines were followed; the breeder agrees to:
. Replace the dog with one of equivalent quality from the first litter bred by the breeder.
. This warranty is good for two full years after purchase
Breeder strongly encourages purchaser to have the dog seen by a Veterinarian of
purchasers choice within 72 hours of picking up the dog. Said dog may be returned to the breeder for any reason within
the 72 hours following purchase, provided that the dog has not been damaged in any way the purchaser will then be entitled
to a refund of the original purchase price. After the 72 hour time period expires, dogs may still be replaced as stated above
but no cash refunds.
The breeder certifies that the dog is eligible for registration under the Regulations
of the American Kennel Club as a purebred Miniature Pinscher and will provide forms for such a registration. The breeder reserves
the right to affix the kennel names "Tripp's" and supply a registry name for the dog.
The purchaser agrees to maintain the dog in a humane environment and properly train
and care for it. Specifically the dog will be properly licensed and vaccinated against rabies, distemper, parvovirus,
and other communicable diseases as recommended by a qualified veterinarian.
Bitches that are purchased as family companions and dogs that are judged not to
be of show or breeding quality should be spayed when they near maturity, before nine months of age and will be sold with limited
AKC privileges.
The breeders will use their best judgment and the advice of other fanciers in evaluating
the puppies as to show or pet quality. There is no guarantee that a puppy evaluated as "Show Quality" will be successful in
the show ring as an adult and no warranties are made to that effect. The breeders encourage owners to participate in the sport
of purebred dogs and may be available to assist purchasers in preparing and showing dogs that are evaluated to be of show
quality.
In the event that the purchaser(s) are unable to keep the dog or provide an appropriate
home in accordance with this agreement, the dog will be returned to the breeder. Purchasers agree to notify the breeder if
any such contingency arises and will not abandon the dog to a shelter or sell or give the dog away.
