Buyer has three days (excluding weekends and holidays) from the receipt of the puppy to have it examined by a veterinarian and provide Seller with the results. If the puppy is found to be unhealthy, the Buyer may return the puppy for a full refund. A signed diagnosis from the veterinarian stating that the puppy is unhealthy must be provided. No cash refunds will be given after three days.
