I personally would watch and see with the new owners and go from there.

my vet does everything when I take them in for their final visit before they leave, but it would be nice to get the form filled out and send it in to the place mentioned above and perhaps give new parents a copy along with the regular health certificate I provide.. That's what I was thinking.
