A Buyer has 72 business hours from time of pick up or delivery to have the dog/puppy examined by a board-certified licensed Veterinarian of their choice. Failure to do so will void all guarantees. If within those 72 hours the dog/puppy is found to have a life-threatening defect by a board-certified licensed Veterinarian, a Buyer may return the dog/puppy for a replacement dog/puppy (with equal or lesser value or pay the difference in value) as soon as one becomes available.

In any of the events named above Silver Bitch Stables is NOT responsible for any Veterinary costs or fees and has the right to a second opinion with a licensed Veterinarian of their choice before agreeing to a replacement dog/puppy.

Buyer will have 10 days after being notified of second opinion to come pick up the dog/puppy originally purchased. Failure to do so will result in implied consent to surrender dog/puppy back to Silver Bitch Stables.
Should a Buyer decide to keep the originally purchased dog/puppy or keep the dog/puppy past the 10 days (allowed to return their dog/puppy) in the event of a defect or genetic disorder named above, they will not be compensated in any way and forfeit the ability to return the dog/puppy at a later date and time.

Silver Bitch Stables only offers a replacement dog/puppy (of equal or lesser value or pay the difference in value) as soon as one becomes available, should any of the above events take place. If a Buyer rejects a replacement dog/puppy, all sales become final. In the event of the death of a dog/puppy a board-certified licensed Veterinarian must diagnose the cause of death by an autopsy report if a Buyer seeks a replacement dog/puppy.
