Health Guarantee Basic Information 

  1. All puppies are eating dry and/or wet food based on their age and size. Your consultant will be able to provide the brand your puppy is currently eating. If you elect to transition your puppy to a new puppy food we suggest mixing the current brand with the new food of your choosing for a few days. This will lessen the disruption in your pup's bowel movements and lower the risk of sickness. 
  2. No refunds are given after your puppy leaves the care of Happytail Puppies, LLC. If for any reason you are dissatisfied with your new fur baby and want to return for any reason we will lovingly accept your puppy back, in the same condition they were in when they left our care, within their first year of life. You will supply an updated medical record from your licensed veterinarian, as well as, Happytail Puppies, LLC's original medical records, current dog food, microchip information and Vitadawg records. If you try to return your dog after they are one year old, Happytail Puppies, LLC will need to consider your dog's medical history, current medications, disposition, and undergo a behavioral assessment to make sure the dog is adoptable and not dangerous to our staff, and can decline to accept the dog back. 
  3. All puppies must be picked up within 48 hours, once your puppy turns 8 weeks old and/or is cleared by Happytail Puppies, LLC's licensed veterinarian. Puppies in our training program and/or traveling will have their own specific pick up arrangements made with our staff. By not making arrangements to pick up your puppy within the 48 hour timeframe, you understand that after the initial 48 hours you are responsible to pay a

daily holding fee, for up to 5 additional days, at a fee amount determined by Happytail Puppies, LLC. If arrangements on your end cannot be made past this point, Happytail Puppies, LLC will provide a travel quote for delivery or recommend discussing training options with the new puppy owner.

Happytail Puppies, LLC Travel & Delivery Disclosure 

I/We, the undersigned, acknowledge the following: 

  • ETAs are subject to change at any time. 

Travel, whether it be ground or flight, can be very stressful for a puppy. Some puppies do really well while traveling, while others may experience some motion sickness, vomiting, diarrhea or other sickness as a result from the stress of traveling. 

  • I understand that if my puppy vomits, they may be susceptible to forming a mild aspirated pneumonia which is caused from inhaling any foreign matter (such as vomit), and can be a common occurrence when pets travel. Please take extreme precautions when making arrangements to travel with your new puppy. Happytail Puppies, LLC is not liable for this occurring as we do not release any puppies from our care until our vet has cleared them to travel safely. 
  • I have been informed that Happytail Puppies, LLC travel nannies are well experienced and do their best to keep any and all pups in their care clean, happy and healthy. 
  • Puppies typically cannot hold their urine and bowel movements for more than 2-3 hours at time. This may result in the puppy having a potty accident in the travel crate. 
  • I have been instructed how and what (oatmeal puppy shampoo) to give and use for my puppy's bath, once arrived, to remove any urine, fecal or vomit my puppy may have experienced during travel. • As previously stated, in the event I hire a non-affiliated private puppy nanny, Happytail Puppies, LLC is not liable for the puppy once they are in the hands of your personally hired private puppy nanny. 
  • In the event I personally drive or fly to pick the puppy up, I assume responsibility for vomiting, which could cause aspiration pneumonia. 
  • The puppy's eating schedule is off due to travel, which may result in puppy's glucose levels dropping and causing puppy to have low energy. Once puppy arrives 1 havee been instructed to give yogurt and/or clear karo syrup or Nutrical, to raise my puppy's glucose levels back to normal. 
  • I understand the puppy may not eat immediately, or eat very little over the course of a day or two due to the stress of traveling. We have been instructed on how to give yogurt, baby food, wet puppy food, rotisserie chicken, karo syrup or Nutrical to puppy if they are not eating. 
  • I understand the puppy won't travel until cleared by a licensed veterinarian. 
  • I understand, upon arrival and settling in, it is imperative my puppy drinks water to avoid dehydration. • I am aware my puppy won't travel until the complete balance is paid in full, proper identification has been provided and the Health Guarantee and Travel Disclosure has been signed. 
  • I am aware there may be a delay or change in travel schedule due to weather conditions (ex: heat, cold, snow, ice etc.) and unforeseen circumstances affecting ground travel and flight. I am aware my puppy may experience an unscheduled layover, with flight, causing a delay in their arrival. 
  • IF FLYING: I've been instructed where to go to pick my puppy up at the airport. I've provided the correct name (consignee) that my puppy's itinerary has been booked in. This also matches pick up name and address on receiver's ID (which must be shown when picking up my puppy). 
  • I've supplied the correct delivery address and contact information for ground delivery. • I am satisfied with the communication and instructions I've received thus far, regarding my puppy's travel.

Happytail Puppies, LLC Hypoglycemia and Related Conditions Disclaimer 

By my signature, I hereby acknowledge that a full explanation was given to me, along with a copy of "What Is Hypoglycemia", by my Puppy Care Consultant of what Hypoglycemia is, the symptoms of Hypoglycemia, and what to do in the case my puppy shows symptoms of Hypoglycemia. Suggestions for avoiding hypoglycemia: free feeding day/night while your puppy matures and adapts to your environment, establishing healthy eating habits in your puppy, is offered probiotic/prebiotic supplements, greek yogurt, tiny pieces of chicken, baby food safe for puppies, and/or a wet food mixed with their puppy food.

Happytail Puppies, LLC Size and Weight Disclaimer 

This agreement goes over the estimated weight and size of your new puppy. Here at Happytail Puppies, we DO NOT guarantee our puppies' size and weight. We make only size and weight estimations based on each puppy's parents' size and weight, our parents' previous litters, the puppy's eating habits, and the puppy's current size. As some puppies may stay true to standard breed size and weight estimations, some puppies may exceed those estimations based on their own lifestyle, eating habits, and generations of genetics. As a majority of our puppies are designer breeds, they

can mature in their own unique way taking genetics from each parent. That being said, one litter may have puppies that differ in shape, size and weight. 

Happytail Puppies, LLC try their very best to give customers the best estimates we can for their puppy's mature size and weight. However, because of everything stated previously, that estimation is not 100% accurate. Puppies eat, grow, live and develop differently and because of that, our estimates may be just that, an estimate. Given these points, we DO NOT offer any refunds due to a puppy exceeding estimated size and weight. We believe that if a puppy is to exceed the estimated weights, there is only more to love! 

By signing this agreement, I hereby acknowledge that I am aware of my puppy's breed and potential mature size and weight. I also acknowledge that I was given only an estimated mature weight of my puppy by Happytail Puppies, LLC's staff based on their knowledge of the breeds and individual puppy's parent weights and sizes.
