  Deposits / Payments / Shipping

1.      Puppies are reserved and held with a deposit.  Deposits are $300.00.  Deposits can be paid with money orders, cashier's checks, personal checks.  Once Adore-A-Bull receives the deposit the puppy will be marked and considered sold.  Due to the prevalence of check fraud the balance on your puppy is due by the time the puppy is six weeks old.  This gives us time for the check to clear our bank.  All Checks should be made out to Benito Padilla.

2.      Choice of puppy is determined on a first come (deposit received) first to choose basis, once the pup is put for sale on the Puppy page.  Puppy will be placed on "hold" for four business days, while waiting for a deposit.  If deposit is not received in that time, the puppy will be placed back up for sale.

3.      Deposits are NON REFUNDABLE, except in cases of premature death, prior to the delivery of your puppy to you.  If you change your mind and do not want or cannot take your puppy, you forfeit your deposit

4.      Shipping for puppies twenty pounds and under at this time is $250.00.  This is an all inclusive shipping cost and it includes your kennel / crate (which you keep), vet check and actual shipping costs.

 5.      Buyer will pick up puppy by the time it is eight weeks old, or the puppy will be shipped by the time it is eight weeks old.  There will be a $35.00 per week boarding charge, plus any other expenses if buyer is not able to pick up puppy.  Two weeks or more with no attempts to make pick up arrangements or attempts to make plans with Adore-A-Bull, the buyer then forfeits the puppy and any deposits or payments made on puppy, unless other arrangements are made with Adore-A-Bull.  

 Your Adore-A-Bull Puppy is guaranteed as Follows:

1.     To be in good physical condition for the first 48 hours after the time of delivery to the buyer.  The buyer agrees to have the puppy examined by a Licensed Veterinarian within 48 hours after delivery time for a complete physical examination.  If the Veterinarian finds the puppy to have a serious physical condition other than a viral or bacterial cold or bacterial infection, such as Coccidia or Giardia (bloody stools), which is easily treated, the seller will replace the puppy with another puppy of comparable or better quality, when available from same or upcoming litter, after the first puppy is returned to the seller.  The seller reserves the right to a second Veterinarian opinion at the expense of the seller.  If the puppy is not examined by a Veterinarian within 48 hours after delivery time, all guarantees listed are not valid.  No monies will be refunded.  Puppies are at risk for Coccidia and Giardia (bloody stools) which is often brought on by the stress of shipping, a new home, new food, new people, change of climate or surroundings. etc.  Puppies shipped also seem more prone to have bouts with Coccidia or Giardia.  Another thing that may show up with shipping and/or the stress of moving and a new home is Kennel Cough (Bordatella-a raspy cough may be signs of this) which is common in dogs that are shipped and is usually caused by bacteria.  Kennel cough is self limiting and like the common cold, it must run its course.  Full recovery is expected and kennel cough, Coccidia or Giardia on their own are not life threatening. All puppies are treated and vaccinated for Coccidiosis, Giardia and Kennel Cough, before they leave.  However, you need to be aware that these things can arise and that they are usually not serious (even though seeing blood in the stool appears serious) and are easily treated.  We will not cover the treatment for them. 

2.     To be free from any genetic / hereditary defects that cause death or serious impairment of the vital functions in the puppy until said puppy is one year of age.  Any problems associated with hips will not be covered at all until the puppy is at least 12 months old.  Hips will then be covered until said puppy is 18 months old.  If an inheritable defect is documented by a Veterinarian and presented to the seller with sufficient supporting evidence, the buyer will be entitled to a replacement puppy of the same sex, of comparable or better quality, when available from same or upcoming litter.  Buyer may pick the breeding/litter that they want a pup out of; however the specific pup to be used as a replacement pup will be chosen by Adore-A-Bull, not by the buyer.  No cash refunds given and we will not pay any vet bills.

3.     Puppy will be current on worming and shots and will have received vaccinations and worming depending on age.  No replacements will be given in case of Parvo.

4.     If your dog is used in any sort of illegal activity (i.e. dog fighting) or in any extreme sports (i.e. weight pulling), or is mistreated, malnourished, abused or not taken care of, the guarantee is completely null and void.

5.     It is understood that at the time of this sale the puppy is not considered to be of show quality or breeding quality. But it is represented as its breed and is suited as pet quality only.

6.     This guarantee does not cover what in the Bulldog breed some consider normal or beyond our control i.e.: Cherry eyes, entropian, "loose" hips, stenotic nares (loud sounding or "snuffling" sound when breathing).  We cannot guarantee that the dog will not contract mange (Red Mange, Demodex Mange or any type of mite mange).  Mange is a multi-factorial genetic disease that can be transmitted in a recessive manner. There is much dispute between experts as to the differing specific causes of mange including environment, stress and nutrition, therefore we cannot guarantee against it.  We are not geneticists and cannot predict genetic problems.  Skin allergies or an Umbilical Hernia- (an "Outie" belly button) are not covered.  We do not breed dogs with undesirable conditions such as mange or bad hips, but we cannot guarantee that previous generations did not have these conditions in their lines; therefore, we cannot guarantee these conditions will not show up unbeknownst to us, in future litters.

7.     There is no guarantee or warranty that the buyer will be able to breed or show the dog purchased, regardless of show or breeding potential.  This guarantee is not transferable from the original purchaser.

General Information- Every line of dogs has some issues common to their breed.  The Olde English Bulldogge is a recreation of the Bulldogges of Olde and one of the reasons it was created was for the purposes of eliminating many of the established health problems that the English Bulldog has, which it has done.  However the dog is still a Bulldog and some problems may arise that are directly related to what we find most desirable about the breed, the flatter face, rolling gait, short tail and big chest for instance.  Do all the research that you can, understand and accept that when you purchase a dog you may have to deal with some issues.  Stress- one must understand that it is stressful for any puppy to leave its home and littermates or playmates.  Like you, a pup under stress, is more susceptible to illness.  His immune system is compromised while under stress.  There are millions of bacteria, fungi and depending on environment, viruses all over.  If your pup comes into contact with these while he is stressed, he will be less able to fight it off.  Be very considerate of this factor, keep the pup quiet and wait until he knows you and is over his stressful time to expose him to new and exciting (and usually germ and virus' friendly) atmospheres, like going to Petco to choose a new bone, or inviting all your family and friends over to see him.  Give him time and keep him away from stress as much as possible the first 10 days or so.  Hold him in your lap at the Veterinarian.  Like Hospitals, where sick people are all over, Veterinarian offices see sick dogs nearly every day.  It may take a puppy a few days of rest to be itself again; this is normal.  We strongly suggest that you do not expose your new puppy to new things until you have had him for 2 weeks.  Keep him in your yard, hold him if you cannot.  He is a baby similar to a human baby.  You know how they catch every cold around?  It is because they are new to the world and their immune system needs to be exposed to things to become strong, same thing with baby puppies. Pups are current on their vaccinations including- hepatitis, parainfluenza, and bordetella when they leave Adore-A-Bull.  You will need to give several more vaccinations when the pup gets a bit older.  Speak with your Veterinarian about what is appropriate for your area.  The incubation period on Parvo is 2-10 days.  Just because a puppy is current on vaccinations, this does not mean he is immune.  You will be given a Puppy Health Form with your dog.  This will detail what vaccinations and wormings he has had and when.  All of the dogs here at Adore-A-Bull are on a comprehensive health program that was compiled with the help of long time breeders and our Veterinarian.  You are purchasing a "Bulldog" as the name implies, they can be very determined.  Please consider getting some professional training with your puppy when he is younger, you will be thankful you did, when he is older.  There is nothing like the love of a Bulldogge!     

The Buyer Agrees to the Following:

1.    To use the kennel name “Adore-A-Bull“ as the prefix in the registered name of the dog.
