ANGELS OF GOLD GOLDEN RETRIEVERS

We do not sell dogs as breeding dogs. We have a responsibility to our puppies and our dogs. As breeders, we made the decision to bring our puppies into this world. We loved them first and when they leave us we want them to have the best quality of life imaginable. This means having a very loving new family. In order to protect our puppies and their bloodlines, we sell our puppies on ‘limited registration’, which means you cannot breed as per AKC.

The buyer is responsible for all shipping costs and any/all vet expenses.

All puppies that are sold will be up to date on vaccinations and de-worming. It is required that you have a health examination performed on your puppy within 72 hours of receiving him.

If your vet finds a life-threatening condition present, you AGREE TO NOTIFY US THE SAME DAY as your initial vet visit.

If the buyer neglects to have the puppy checked by a certified veterinarian within 3 days of arrival ALL GUARANTEES ARE NULL AND VOID.  

If at any time you cannot take care of your puppy/dog, we have first right of refusal.  If it’s a behavioral problem, you must have made or make an attempt at some training of the puppy/dog. There are usually classes near by or you can always check with AKC or the Golden Retriever Club Of America to find your closest club.

If we are able to sell your puppy/dog, we will return whatever money collected, if any, up to what you paid. We are here for the life of the dog, never hesitate to ask us any questions.

If you decide to show AKC conformation, they do require ‘full registration’. In that case, our names will remain on the dogs registration papers as co owners and a different contract will be given.

Puppies will be $….. and the price of a health certificate if needed. We are also required to charge MN sales & use tax, which is approximately $185.  We require a $500 non-refundable ( if you back out) deposit when pregnancy is confirmed.  Cash, Cash app or PayPal (FAMILY & FRIENDs) only is accepted for puppies at the time of pickup.

Your puppy’s registration will have ‘Angels Of Gold’ as the prefix, the rest will be chosen by the new owner.  If you do not put our prefix, the contract is void

Pet puppies ARE REQUIRED to be spayed, NOT BEFORE 12 months old and after at least one heat cycle, neutered NOT BEFORE 18-24 months with proof from veterinarian sent to seller. A penalty may  be assessed for each month before or past requirement.

Hip/elbow dysplasia is a multifactoral disease and CANNOT be linked solely to a single genetic cause. Hip/elbow dysplasia is greatly affected by both environment and nutrition.  It is recommended that the puppy be fed a premium, high quality puppy dog food for the first 6 months to ensure proper growth and development. Do Not let your puppy/dog get over weight and/or above breed standard. If hips and/or elbows do not pass and your puppy/dog is over breed standard weight, had too much exercise while under 2, or does not follow this contract exactly, this contract is null and void. This contract does not cover SAS, Subaortic Stenosis. https://www.vscvets.com/surgery/surgery-procedures/osteochondritis-dissecans-ocd

The puppies will be sent home with a small bag of Purina Pro Plan Probiotic  puppy. You should keep them on this for at least 6 months.

This puppy should also be raised and exercised in a way that is conducive to optimum joint health.

If an OFA report shows evidence of hip dysplasia or elbow dysplasia on a Angels Of Gold puppy, (which MUST be done between the age of 24-26 months for contract to be in effect), the seller will refund the deposit money after receiving failed OFA verification and veterinarian report of spay or neuter.   (Puppy/dog must be within the GRCA weight Standards)

Puppy will be wormed (if needed), shots, microchipped and vet checked before leaving for their new homes, health certificates (at buyers expense) also if being shipped.

Please tell us everything about yourself and what you are looking for in a dog on the puppy inquiry form so we can try to fit the right puppy to what each family is looking for.  You may not know which is yours until 7-9 weeks of age if we decide to keep one and/or the stud owner chooses one and we have some going to Show/Performance homes so they can be evaluated. Those puppies will be chosen first.

Puppy should be taken to your veterinarian within 4 days arrival at their new home.

Shipping is available at owners expense
