I usually ask my new owners to wait a week for a Vet check, unless they have reason to go. |
The reason that I and others require a vet check is so that the buyers own vet is verifying that the puppy was healthy at the time of sell and no accusations can be made later. Thankfully, I have not had a problem, but I have heard some horror stories. I am lineate about when they take the puppy to the vet, but I do require it. I also cover liver shunt and other life threatening defects for a longer period of time (3 years) and the buyer has the option to keep the sick puppy if they so choose. I don't cover any shipping as I will not ship either. I also void the warranty if I don't receive proof that the spay/neuter has been done.
