Vaccinations & Dewormings:
We use the 2006 AAHA vaccination protocol which says to vaccinate for parvo/distemper/adenovirus at 6, 10, 14 weeks and we (and our vet) suggest a fourth shot at the 18th week. We no longer give bordatella, parainfluenza, corona or leptospirosis as they are not considered necessary core vaccines for puppies and adult dogs. The entire AAHA protocol is located on the articles page of our website. Puppies are dewormed once with a small Nemex at 8 weeks.
Microchip:
Before they are sent off to their new homes, puppies are microchipped and registered with AVID under our kennel name as the primary contact. An AVID chip collar tag and chip certificate is sent home with each puppy. You may register it's chip into your name as primary contact, but our kennel info must stay as the secondary contact.
Non-Breeding Agreement:
Buyer understands that they have purchased this puppy as a working gun dog/performance companion/pet. This dog is not to be used for breeding without Breeder's knowledge or permission, under any conditions. Failure to honor this non-breeding contract will constitute a breach in our agreement.
