Avalon does hereby certify that to the best of its knowledge, dog sold is in good health, free of genetic defects, and that all vaccinations are current. All known faults have been declared to buyer. Please be aware that Avalon takes great care in selecting its breeding stock. Only top quality dogs from good bloodlines are used in our breeding program. Buyer shall be given a period of 72 hours to have dog examined by a licensed veterinarian. In the unlikely event that a health problem with dog is discovered and written diagnosis is supplied to Avalon, dog may be returned to Avalon for exchange or refund of the purchase price listed above.

At Avalon we breed only from the best stock and conscientiously try to eliminate faults from our bloodlines. Because all of our breeding stock is sound, healthy, and from the best bloodlines available, we are able to minimize the instance of faults and health defects. However, toy dogs by nature can be subject to a number of faults at maturity which may not obvious when the puppy is a young age. Buyer understands that purchasing a toy dog involves risk. Additionally, because a dog’s ability to be shown to AKC Champion status is largely dependent on his/her training, socialization, grooming, nutrition etc., we are not able to offer a guarantee of any kind that a puppy will finish to AKC Champion status.

Satisfaction guarantee: If your puppy does not meet with your satisfaction, he/she may be returned in good condition within 2 weeks for exchange or refund of the purchase price listed above. Health guarantee: If written veterinary documentation of a genetic health defect is provided by six months of age, we will gladly exchange your puppy. If you purchased a show prospect puppy at show price, and a major fault according to the AKC standard for show Pomeranians is present at maturity, and veterinary documentation of such is provided by one year of age, we will exchange your puppy, offer a refund of the purchase price, or refund to pet price should you wish to keep your puppy and have him/her neutered/spayed. Shipping and health certificate costs to return puppy and receive replacement puppy are the Buyer’s responsibility. Major faults that CAN occur in all toy dogs, and that qualify for exchange or refund to pet price include: 1) Undershot or overshot bite as long as any retained baby teeth have been properly removed. 2) Retained testicle(s) in males. 3) Mature weight under 3 pounds or over 7 pounds as long as dog is neither overweight nor anorexic. 4) Patellar luxation above grade 2. Please be aware that obesity and injury can cause patellar luxation. No luxation claims will be considered on obese or injured dogs. Again we breed only from sound, healthy, carefully screened breeding stock and rarely experience these problems. We just want to ensure that you understand that they can occur in all toy breeds. Although not a fault, we want to point out that toy dogs sometimes retain baby teeth, and these must be removed so that they do not adversely affect your dog’s bite. Claims for exchange/refund on “show prospect” puppies to pet price must be made before the dog reaches one year of age and be accompanied by written veterinary documentation describing the major fault. Claims for refund to pet price will not be considered unless veterinary documentation of the fault and veterinary proof that a spay/neuter has been performed is provided to Avalon (current pet price: $1,000.00).

 If your dog is to be shipped, Avalon will utilize the most economical means available. Freight must be prepaid and will not be refunded should dog be returned. A clean, airline approved shipping crate complete with food and water dishes and a blanket or crate pad must be supplied prior to shipment. If you prefer, Avalon will purchase a crate for you for our cost of $35.00 (includes #100 kennel, food/water dish, genuine lamb's wool crate pad, and toy.)  A veterinary health certificate is necessary for shipping and will cost an additional $25.00 if your puppy is under 3 months and no rabies vaccination is required or $40.00 if your puppy is over 3 months and a rabies vaccination is required. International Health Certificates are subject to additional charges. In the event that Buyer returns dog to Avalon  for or any reason he/she will do so at his/her own expense.

At Avalon, we care very much about the future of the Pomeranian breed. As responsible breeders, we feel that pet dogs should not be bred. If you have purchased a pet quality puppy,  he/she is being sold with a spay/neuter contract. Buyer agrees to have dog spayed/neutered by one year of age. The “Limited Registration” box on your dog’s AKC papers will be checked to remove the incentive for you to breed. (Should you breed your dog contrary to your agreement, puppies born of said dog will not be eligible for AKC registration.)
