Dakota Kennels has made every effort to provide purchaser with a healthy puppy. This puppy is guaranteed to be in good health at the time of delivery. We guarantee that this puppy is purebred and registerable with the AKC. We guarantee that all vaccinations and wormings have been given as stated on the vaccination schedule.


In the event of any genetic disorder which is sufficiently serious from a qualified veterinarian to warrant euthanasia of the dog, the breeder agrees to replace the dog with one of equivalent quality from the next litter bred by the breeder. In order for this health guarantee to be redeemed you the purchaser must take the puppy to be seen by the veterinarian and have the results sent to the breeder.


Puppies will be picked out in order the deposits are received. If for some reason something happens to any of the pups, the people who have had deposits down first will get priority to choose a different pup if they want to. For anyone that has put a deposit down and something has happened and there is no longer a puppy available from current litter than they will have the option to a refund or choosing from a different litter. That is the only way you will get a refund otherwise deposits are non-refundable.


You must contact the breeder by text, email or regular mail with the results after you take your new puppy to get a check-up if you have any problems. Some disorders may be caused by environmental factors, for example coccidia, giardia, intestinal worms, kennel cough, cancer, demodectic mange, scabies, thyroid dysfunction, allergies, hip or elbow dysplasia (90% of dysplasia is caused by not caring correctly for the first year of the puppies life). Please do not over feed your puppy and allow them to be overweight cause this can cause hip dysplasia. Also do not allow them to jump too hard or be too rough for at least the first 10 months of life as it can cause issues with growth plates and joints.
