The price of this puppy or adult is $__________ (price without shipping). Payment must be received before shipping date or pickup. Buyer(s) is/are aware that the puppy is sold with no warranties, either expressed or implied, in an AS IS condition with no guaranties other than those stated herein. DEPOSITS ARE NON-REFUNDABLE. No refunds. Iskato's Pomeranians does hereby certify that to the best of our knowledge, the puppy sold is in good health, and that all shots/wormings are up to date.
DEPOSITS ARE NON-REFUNDABLE and NON-TRANSFERABLE. If you are unable to finish paying off your puppy/dog, you will not be refunded the required Deposit for holding, And possibly any other expenses, such as Shipping Required Health Certificate and the vet check if the Seller has already Acquired health certificate for shipping purposes. (any other monies left over will be refunded by US Money Order if you are unable to purchase and pay final balance/and shipping is required.. Shipping is normally done on weekends, and you must set time aside to pick up/sometimes drive to a nearby International Airport to pick up your new puppy. We will work with you on shipping times, but this is all out of our hands as we go by what the airlines has available, and the times cargo offices are open and their requirements on time drop offs. We try to get your pup to you early as possible in the daytime, but this is not a guarantee due to airlines flights available, connection flights and layovers.
Puppy(ies) must be completely paid for by the age of 10 weeks, including shipping charges before a puppy is to be shipped. If you cannot make final payment before 12 weeks of age, you will be responsible for additional shots/wormings/food of your puppy, and if not paid for by 14 weeks of age, you forfeit your deposit and the puppy is available again for sale.
The Buyer is responsible for promptly notifying the Seller of the puppy/dog safe arrival, either by email/phone the day of shipping. This does not mean a day or two later, means the day of shipping.
Purchaser agrees to use our kennel name "Iskato's" at the beginning of the registered name of the puppy. NO exceptions. Buyer is responsible for keeping up with all AKC paperwork, worming and shot records which will be provided with the puppy/dog. The Seller will not replace paperwork or records. If Buyer loses AKC paperwork, the Seller can obtain additional paperwork from AKC upon request. There will be an AKC Fee and a inconvenience fee by the Seller. Seller will not provide AKC paperwork for any puppy/dog which has changed hands from the original owner on this contract.
Pom puppies go through a change around 12-16 weeks of age, called the puppy uglies (blowing coat stage), if you receive your puppy during this phase, as the Buyer, you understand this is a normal stage that ALL poms go through and is not permanent. Their coats do come back, and this is not an indication of their quality of coat or that they have a skin disorder. It's just a normal phase. This is not a legit excuse to return a puppy claiming it is not a Pomeranian. They all go through this phase. If you have a tiny pup that has to be kept longer than 10 to 12 weeks, also keep in mind, by the time this pup is ready for his/her new home, he/she could be at that stage. Do not be alarmed, it is normal for all Pomeranian puppies to go through this stage.
Puppy(ies) is sold as follow:
_________Sold as companion/pet with Full AKC papers. There is no guarantee to the breeding quality, the pup/dog’s breeding capability, size, csections, interest in breeding etc.

Retired Pets for adoption:
_______Sold without papers, adoption fee plus additional cost set by Seller (price listed above) for purchase. Pet will be spayed/neutered with adoption fee cost, and health guarantee is listed in this contract.
_______Sold without papers, if adoption fee of spay/neuter/and or teeth cleaning is required, there is no monies rendered to the Buyer but to the services rendered by a veterinarian to provide these services for placement with the new owner, therefore, there is no health guarantee as these pets are not being sold, only adopted.
Limited Guarantee: Puppy/Dogs sold with Full AKC papers are given the same guarantee as for pet. We do not guarantee the quality of the dog to be show or breeding quality, to be capable to sire or have litters, to have the ability to free whelp, the ability to breed, etc.
To the best of the seller's knowledge, this puppy is free of disease and heart/lung/kidney defects as of the date of this sale. Puppies(dogs) that are shipped out of state by air will have obtained a health certificate, flight insurance, crate and rabies if over 4 months old, expense payable by the buyer.. The buyer has 48 hours from the puppy's time of arrival to have the puppy checked by a veterinarian of his/her choice at the buyer's expense. If the buyer's vet exam reveals that the puppy(dog) has a life threatening disease to the heart/kidney or the lungs AND a second veterinarian (unassociated with the first vet) concurs with the diagnosis, the puppy must be returned at the BUYER'S EXPENSE and must be returned within 72 hours of diagnosis, with supported vet documentation, and my vet has to agree with the diagnosis, and a replacement will be made when one becomes available. If you choose not to get a second vet opinion, you forfeit all guarantees of this contract. If you chose not to take your new puppy(dog) to the vet within 48 hours, your guarantee is void, no exceptions. If buyer decides not to return a puppy that is covered under the guarantee, and decides to have the puppy/dog treated by their vet, then the Seller will no longer be responsible for replacement, and the Seller as always is not responsiblie for any Veterinarian charges and or treatments.

What is not covered:
We do not guarantee color, size, quality …we do our best to provide an estimate of size and color.
Guarantee does not cover ear sets, tail sets, patellas of any grade, open fonts/soft spots, hernias, teeth placement, breeding quality or the capability to breed, parasites, earmites etc. all are treatable by a veterinarian. We do not guarantee personalities. All of our babies are socialized before they leave our home. Please allow time for your new puppy to adjust to his/her new surroundings. We only replace a puppy due to the listed guarantee, life threatening disease to the heart/lungs/kidneys. This does not cover such conditions that are treatable by a veterinarian such as kidney stones, respiratory infections, kennel cough, etc, these conditions can be treated by a veterinarian and not considered life threatening if treated.
A veterinarian statement must accompany the return of puppy/dog with the listed life threatening disease and the puppy/dog must be returned to the Seller within 72 hours,.. after this time, the contract is null and void and puppy/dog is accepted as is.
Toy breeds are predisposed to losing their permanent teeth, even with routine dentals. Older toy breeds might be missing a good many of their teeth.
We do our best to have your new puppy started on potty training, crate training and wee wee pads. It’s the new owner’s responsibility to continue with the training. We do not guarantee your baby will be house trained or completely house trained. We do not guarantee that your new puppy will not bark or chew on house hold items. We recommend training for your new puppy if he/she develops habits that are not desired.
All pups are sold with updated shots and wormings. Additional shots/wormings will be the responsibility of the new owner. If you are purchasing an teenager or an adult, your new baby will have been started on heartworm prevention, and it will be the new owners responsibility to continue that treatment prevention.
We do not guarantee against coccidia/giardia/other parasites, internally or externally, but we do treat prior to placement, and cleared though fecal exam. We treat all pups with albon and flagyl prior to their placement in a new home. We do our best for prevention, but additional wormings or albon/flagyl may be needed. Shipping, new environment, shots/wormings, new noise/ new food, too much playtime, can all be a stressful factor for your new puppy…which can lead to hypoglycemic spells, or onset of coccidia/giardia that may be dormant.
There is no guarantee against accidents or sickness that was not contracted on the seller's premises. THE SELLER WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY VET BILLS. Any pup returned under the above warranty guarantee (Heart/lungs/liver) must be returned in the condition in which received within 72 hours from the time the puppy/dog arrived to the new owner. If not, the contract is void. If the Seller has agreed to a replacement, and the buyer decides not return the puppy/dog, the warranty becomes void, and no replacement will be offered.
Hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) is a condition, not a disease… It is brought on by not eating properly, stress, too much handling, shipping, etc. If the puppy is not eating, tempt him/her with baby food (strained meat), cottage cheese, hamburger or canned food. Karo syrup can be added to the food or nutra-cal can be given 2 or 3 times a day until he/she is eating properly. If your puppy is not eating at all, consult your vet. Force-feeding science diet A/D is recommended. Your puppy has to have food to survive. The new owner understands he/she is responsible for any additional wormings, heartworm preventions, any additional shots needed, and any additional care for their new puppy. The Buyer understands that they are purchasing a puppy that will require vet maintenance and care for the rest of his/her life. By purchasing you understand this is the responsibility of the Buyer. Refusal to do these things is considered neglect and makes this contract null and void. I have the right to request the puppy back if neglected, or pursue legal action against the buyer.
The buyer understands that he/she is not to place their new puppy in a rescue organization, a pound, resell to a pet store or a broker, or to a puppy mill. The buyer understands by purchasing a puppy from us, that they must offer first refusal rights back to the seller. If the puppy is not purchased at a price of 25% off the purchase price by the breeder(original seller), that the Seller (new owner) will be allow to help in placement of the puppy. At no time is the Seller under contract to purchase any puppies back, but that the offer is extended in case the Seller wishes to purchase the puppy back. The Seller must be notified if the new owner can no longer keep the puppy, this must happen prior to placement, not after the fact. I will offer my abilities to help place a puppy purchased from us if a new owner determines from unforeseen problems that they no longer can be in ownership of a puppy purchased from us.
Please read the 10 points listed on the following link if you are in doubt before purchase.
www.iskatopoms.com/questions.html
I recommend a good high quality food for your puppy. You will be given a sample food of what your new puppy is eating. Do not change your puppy’s food immediately, this should be done gradually. Quick changes in diet can make their tummies upset, loosen their stool, and a new puppy can refuse to eat at all, causing more serious problems. Gradually change the diet day to day, until he/she has adjusted to the new food.

Shipping is available at the Buyer's expense only. Seller is not responsible for any shipping expenses…and there are no refunds due to shipping problems. Buyer will receive puppy/adult when weather permits to ship, and will be arranged by the Seller. ALL SHIPPING CHARGES ARE PAID BY THE BUYER, EVEN IF THE DOG IS RETURNED TO THE SELLER FOR REPLACEMENT. Out of Country Shipping has additional fees than normal shipping within the U.S.
SHIPPING NOTICE: ALL Dogs purchased from Iskato's Poms are required to have shipping insurance. This is purchased at the time of shipping. After the puppy is released to the airlines, the insurance covers that puppy for the flight, from loss or injury. When picking up your puppy from the airport, INSPECT your new puppy to be sure he is okay and in good health from the flight, inspect before you sign the release that you have received your puppy in good health, accidents rarely happen, but they can happen, inspect properly, then sign the release. This releases the airlines from any additional claims and responsibility. The puppy is your responsibility once you sign the release, which includes vet care, maintenance, etc. The breeder is not responsible for accidents or injury due to shipping.
It is the responsibility of the new owner to have your new puppy a vet appointment prior to arrival for his/her wellness checkup. We try to keep to the shipping schedule first set up, but other factors as cancelled flights or bad weather can change the original flight information for the shipping of your puppy.
All puppies are sold with AKC papers, whether on limited or full registration, unless noted pet only without papers. Papers will be sent at the time of puppy pick up or shipping (or mailed the following week), unless they are not available from AKC at the time and will be mailed out to the new owner when received from AKC.
As the buyer, you understand, if purchased puppy is not old enough, big enough, or not quite ready for shipping, that the Seller, will ship said puppy, when the Seller feels the puppy will be safe to ship. All puppies are different in maturity, size, eating habits, and ability to cope with stress, so the Seller must make judgment on when it is safe for said puppy to be shipped, or we can meet you at our local airport if flying in to pick up your new baby.
Local pick up is welcomed BY APPOINTMENT ONLY. If you miss your appt time, you must notify me by phone and reschedule. I will not tolerate kennel hopping (going from one kennel to the next), as you are subject to bring disease or germs from one place to another on your shoes and clothing. These are my pets first and my babies’ health and well being come first. Parents are viewable via my website. When bringing small children, do not allow your children to pick up any puppies, as this is how accidents happen, and you will be liable for any injury to any puppy(ies) if this should happen.
The SELLER will not make any shipping arrangements and will not acquire health certificate required to ship until puppy is PAID IN FULL. Too many wait till the last day and/or do not pay till after shipping date, therefore, do not ask for me to make arrangements till you have paid in full. Adults should be paid in full, and if a deposit is taken to hold, the hold time will be for 2 weeks period, balance must be paid in full at that time. The Seller will notify the Buyer by Phone/Email of the shipping arrangements. I do my best to accommodate buyer’s schedules for shipping, but due to work schedule/family/etc, I prefer shipping on weekends, and will make those arrangements to accommodate both seller/buyer.
Health certificates are only good for 10 days with the airlines. If it expires at no fault of the Seller, the Buyer will be responsible for the cost of a new health certificate.
If Buyer does not comply with the above listed details of agreement, this guarantee is null and void.
***NOTE TO BUYER***
Jurisdiction, Venue and Attorney's fees. The sole jurisdiction and venue for any suit
filed by the Seller or Buyer in any way connected with this agreement shall be in Hinds County, Jackson, Mississippi. The prevailing party in any litigation shall be entitled to their reasonable costs and attorney's fees.
At Iskato’s Poms & Yorkies we want your experience with a new baby to be a good one, so please educate yourself on how to care for you new baby, please be prepared prior to your new baby’s arrival, food, home crate, bedding, toys, nutrical, etc.
By signing below, you have read over the bill of sale contract/guarantee and the questionnaire link, and you fully understand and agree to the terms of purchase contract. If you do not send in a contract with your deposit/payment, you will forfit any warranties/guarantees. No one but the SELLER can alter this contract and provide details within, if altered by another individual other than the SELLER, the contract is void and there will be no guarantee from the SELLER.
Special note for out of country shipping: All expenses required to ship to your country is the Buyers responsibility, additional shots, wormings, flea/tick applications, microchipping, certified pedigrees, shipping cost, international health certificate and USDA approval, etc. At no time will the Seller incur any charges for overseas shipping. If a puppy/dog must be kenneled prior to shipping date, a daily kennel fee maybe applied to the cost of shipping, this is to cover food and care, and any other expenses the Seller should incur while holding puppy/dog during this period.
If any shipping requires me to travel to another airport than my local international airport (JAN) a gas fee charge is required.

Replacement is the only option, NO Refunds. Keep in mind we are a small hobby breeder and we do not have puppies all the time, you understand that we might have to wait for a replacement. Replacement must be of equal value or difference paid upfront.
