ARTICLE 5:  SELLER’S WARRANTIES

A.  Express Warranties

Check the box next to the appropriate canine that is the subject of this agreement:

  Alaskan Malamute

Seller expressly warrants that the canine will be sound and healthy for a period of three (3) business days from the date of this
Agreement.  This warranty applies to all defects diagnosed by a licensed veterinarian that do not rise to the level of a genetic
defect, yet are still disabling to the canine.  Examples of such defects include heart murmurs and/or neurological damage.

Seller expressly warrants that the canine will be free from genetic defects for a period of twenty-four (24) months from the date of
birth (DOB).  For purposes of this agreement, genetic defects shall be defined to include only those genetic defects that, in the
opinion of a licensed veterinarian, cause permanent damage to the health of the dog.  Genetic defects common to the Alaskan
Malamute breed include Hip Dysphasia, Chrondoplasian (dwarfism), Hemeralopia (day blindness) and Hemolytic Anemia.  

In order for Buyer to maintain his or her rights with respect to the preceding two warranties, BUYER MUST TAKE THE CANINE TO
A LICENSED VETERINARIAN FOR A MEDICAL EXAMINATION  AND FURNISH SELLER WITH A COPY OF THE REPORT OF SUCH
EXAMINATION BOTH WITHIN THREE (3) BUSINESS DAYS OF THE DATE OF THIS AGREEMENT.  

If at that time the canine is found to have any defect, Buyer must furnish to Seller documentation from the veterinarian within three
(3) business days of this Agreement and MUST PERMANENTLY RETURN THE DEFECTIVE CANINE to Seller within ten (10)
business days of the diagnosis in order to be refunded his or her purchase price or be tendered a replacement canine of equal or
lesser value.  If the canine is found to be healthy at the aforementioned examination, but later develops a genetic defect within the
twenty-four (24) month time period, Buyer is entitled to a refund of his or her purchase price or a replacement canine of equal or
lesser value if Buyer furnishes to Seller documentation from a licensed veterinarian within three (3) business days of the
diagnosis and IF THE DEFECTIVE CANINE IS PERMANENTLY RETURNED to Seller within ten (10) business days of the
diagnosis.  If, after the finding of a later genetic defect, Buyer does not feel comfortable returning the canine, Buyer may keep the
canine and still receive a refund, but not a replacement, if Buyer furnishes to Seller documentation from a licensed veterinarian
within three (3) business days of the diagnosis and if Buyer meets with a licensed veterinarian in order to develop a strategy for
the care of the defective canine.  Buyer shall then send that proposed plan, signed by his or her licensed veterinarian, to Seller for
Seller’s approval.  Upon Seller’s approval, Seller shall refund the purchase price to Buyer which Buyer agrees will be used
exclusively for the care of the canine.

If the canine should unexpectedly die within the twenty-four (24) month time period, Buyer must furnish a copy of the death
certificate, signed by a licensed veterinarian, to Seller within three (3) business days of the canine’s death.  Before issuing a
refund or replacement canine, Buyer agrees that Seller may order a necropsy done at Buyer’s expense in order to determine the
cause of death.  If that cause of death is a genetic defect, Seller agrees to honor the warranty as described in the terms of this
Article 5.

In addition to the aforementioned requirements, in order to exercise warranty rights for the genetic defect of Hip Dysphasia, a
licensed veterinarian must find that the defect rises to the level of Grade 4 and that diagnosis must be supported by an x-ray
certified by the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals, Inc.

The refund or replacement mentioned in this warranty provision is the only consideration available to a Buyer who purchases a
canine with a defect.  At no time will Seller be liable or responsible for medicines, vaccinations, veterinary bills, or other medical
bills not already incurred upon tender of the canine to Buyer or to the carrier responsible for shipment.

Buyer understands and agrees that the aforementioned guarantees are the only guarantees of the health of the canine made by
Seller.  The long term health of the canine is the sole responsibility of Buyer and includes regular vaccinations, proper nutrition,
exercise, care, and visits to the veterinarian.  Accordingly, Seller is only responsible in accordance with the above warranty
provisions for defects that are diagnosed by a licensed veterinarian and timely reported to Seller in accordance with this Article 5.

THIS DISCLAIMER.  IN ADDITION TO THE LANGUAGE IN ARTICLE 5, THE FOLLOWING DISCLAIMERS SHALL ALSO APPLY:

NO WARRANTY COMPENSATION WILL BE PAID TO OR EXCHANGED WITH BUYER UNLESS EVIDENCE OF A DEFECT IS

ARTICLE 8 OF THIS AGREEMENT ARE PROPERLY COMPLIED WITH.

BUYER MUST PROVIDE TO SELLER WRITTEN PROOF, SIGNED BY A LICENSED VETERINARIAN, THAT THE CANINE WAS
SPAYED OR NEUTERED WITHIN SIX (6) MONTHS OF THE DATE OF THIS AGREEMENT.  IF SELLER DOES NOT TIMELY

ASSIGNABLE.
