PROVISIONS
At Okefeild Acres LLC, here after referred to as Seller, takes great care to provide each client with a well-socialized, healthy puppy. All puppies are examined by a licensed veterinarian before going to their new home and are kept current on vaccinations and deworming protocols to help build early immunity. A signed veterinary health certificate confirming your puppy’s microchip and good health will be included in your adoption paperwork.
COVERAGE FOR FATAL VIRUSES - Coverage against distemper, adenovirus, parainfluenza, and parvovirus is provided for 72 hours after receiving your puppy. Should any of these viruses result in the puppy’s death within this timeframe, Seller will replace the puppy with one of equal value from an available litter of your choosing. Please note: health issues resulting from vaccine reaction, over-vaccination, or administration of anything not listed on the health chart are not covered.
COVERAGE FOR CONGENITAL ANOMOLIES - If a congenital anomaly causes the death of the puppy within two years of birth, a replacement puppy of equal value will be offered from an available litter (shipping not included). Conditions not caused by congenital anomalies are not covered under this warranty.

Be fed Life’s Abundance All Life Stages dog food
Be kept in lean condition with no overfeeding
