GUARANTEE  An actual copy of the contract... Congratulations on the purchase of
your American Bulldog. We feel that this is one of the best dog breeds ever created. The American Bulldog will do almost anything
you ask of it, and is one of the most loyal, intelligent, protective dogs that you will find! Enclosed in this care sheet/guarantee is the information we feel will help you in
taking care of your new dog. Your dog has been weaned onto solid food. We feed Health Food for dogs, dog food. We
have had great success with this food. If you choose to feed something else, please stick with premium dog foods, as the grocery
store brands are not made with as pure ingredients. Your dog has been vaccinated
with a six in one puppy shot, which protects against distemper, hepatitis, parainfluenza, adenovirus, parvovirus, and coronavirus.
We alternate with a Duramune six and one and a Duramune parvovirus vaccination beginning at six weeks, then again at nine,
twelve, fifteen, eighteen and twenty four weeks. Then one vaccination a year after that. A reminder, most dogs are given rabies
vaccinations at four months, again at one year, then every three years after that. We also recommend that you have your dog
checked for internal parasites at least once a year. We use Heartguard on our dogs once a month for heartworm prevention,
roundworm, hookworm, whipworm, and flea control. You are being supplied
with a registration for the American Bulldog Association. You must pick a name for your dog and return the form to the ABA
with the appropriate fee for the dog to be registered. This must be done before the dog reaches six months of age to be valid.
Guarantee: Our dogs are guaranteed to be free of congenital defects, and also guaranteed to
be free of serious infectious diseases (ie. parvovirus). The puppy must be vet checked for infectious diseases within forty-eight
hours of purchase of the dog for this guarantee to be valid. If a dog becomes sick within the incubation period of leaving
our kennels, and the problem can be traced to our kennel, we will reimburse the owner up to the purchase price of the dog.
If the dog is immediately treated and still dies, we will choose a replacement puppy of comparable value as soon as one becomes
available. We also guarantee against the following genetic problems; A)
Hip dysplasia - The dog must be Pennhip certified at two years of age. The evaluation must come back higher than the median
score, with degenerative joint disease(DJD), for replacement of the dog. B) Crossed eyes C) Congenital Heart Problems D)
Entropian or Ectropion Temperament: First,
and most importantly, all puppies must be properly socialized. We only replace dogs for temperament if the dog is returned
to us at the owner's expense, with registration papers, and intact (not spayed or neutered). As breeders, we retain the
right to evaluate the dog's temperament and put it down, place it in a pet home of our choice, or re-sell it. A replacement
pup of equal value will be sent to the owner, at the owner's expense, as soon as one becomes available. People may also
choose to wait for a more suitable time for a replacement. If the owner decides the American Bulldog breed is not good for
them, and does not want a replacement pup, they forfeit their investment. No cash refunds. Of course, we will always take
back any dog we have bred, if the owner cannot keep it for any reason. Again, shipping would be at the owner's expense,
we would owe nothing to the owner since it is a rescue situation, and we reserve the right to decide what to do with the dog. All guarantees are void if the dog has been bred,
is injured, malnourished, overweight, or kept in an improper environment. We will replace a defective dog after we receive
written proof, x-rays, etc, from your vet, and a second opinion from our vet. We also require that you provide proof of spaying
or neutering the dog in question. The replacement dog will be of our choice, and of comparable value. The purchaser agrees also that if they can no longer keep the dog, it will be returned
to Bilt Tuff American Bulldogs, not an animal shelter or dog pound. Purchaser will receive no compensation from us, as we
will be incurring vet bills and food bills for the rescued animal. As a small kennel all of our Males are sold with 2 breedings reserved back to our females. While
the odds of any reserved breedings ever being used are low this ensures access to the best we produce The information and help we provide as breeders of American Bulldogs does not end
with the sale of a dog to you. We encourage you to keep in touch with us. We appreciate progress reports, and we love getting
pictures. If you have any questions or problems, feel free to give us a call. Thank you and enjoy your dog! Nathan & Liana Reich 209-988-3223 I have read this care sheet/guarantee, and I understand
and agree to the terms in it, and any additional terms or agreements below.
