Our Requirements
|
|
|
|
All of our Siberians are sold by contract only. We do this to protect the dog and assure our buyers that we stand behind all PlayMor Siberians.
|
|
|
|
Would you agree to signing a contract?
|
|
|
|
We require that all buyers provide us with a check made payable to the American Kennel Club at the time of purchase ($15). Together we will complete the puppy/dog AKC registration application and/or transfer paperwork and will have the new registration certificates mailed directly to you, the buyer. For record keeping purposes we require the buyer to provide us with a copy of the new registration certificate upon receipt from the AKC.
|
|
|
|
Would you agree to the AKC Registration portion of our contract?
|
|
|
|
We require all of our buyers to have CERF (eye) exams done on their PlayMor Siberian at 1, 2 and 3 years of age and to provide us with copies of all exam reports. We will gladly advise you of upcoming CERF clinics in your area which are done at reduced cost, usually $25. If you choose to OFA (hips) it is a 1 time procedure and must be done after 2 years of age. This is our way of monitoring two very important health related aspects of our breeding program.
|
|
|
|
Would you agree to the CERF exams and foward the reports to us?
|
|
|
|
We strongly recommend that all puppies attend puppy obedience class (oftentimes referred to as "puppy kindergarten"). This helps with socialization and learning manners in a structured setting. It is also a very positive way for a puppy and his/her hew owner to bond and sets the stage for living in harmony with one another. We offer a $50 rebate upon completion of the 8 week kindergarten class. In addition, we offer $25 for each additional 8 week obedience class thereafter up to $100 (4 additional sessions beyond puppy kindergarten). Certificate of Graduation are to be mailed to PlayMor Siberians within 30 days of class completion.
|
|
|
|
Would you be willing to fullfill the puppy kindergaten recommendation?
|
|
|
|
If no, please explain
|
|
|
|
All dogs sold as companion pets are required to be spayed/neutered by 5 months of age. All adults are spayed/neutered prior to going to their new homes. Your AKC registration application will be held until a signed letter from your veterinarian , on your veterinarians stationary, is received stating that the spay/neuter is complete. All AKC registration papers will have the non-breeding (limited registration) boxes checked prior to submission to AKC.
|
|
|
|
Do you agree to our spay/neuter requirements?
|
|
|
|
If no, please explain why?
|
|
|
|
We require our buyers to provide regular veterinary care for their PlayMor Siberian. Including, but not limited to annual health exams, yearly heartworm screening, monthly heartworm preventative (we recommend & use Interceptor), monthly flea/tick prevention (we recommend & use Frontline Plus), boosters of the core vaccines yearly and rabies vaccination every 3 years (or as required by your own state & local laws), and any other Veterinary Care to be administered promptly as needed.
|
|
|
|
Do you agree to our veterinary requirement?
|
|
|
|
If no, please explain why?
|
|
|
|
Our puppies & adult dogs are exclusively fed a raw diet of wholesome raw foods. Visit our Nutrition Page for more information. Though we would love for all of our puppy buyers to BARF with their dogs/puppies, we understand its not for everybody. We do however require that you find a suitable high quality kibble vs cheap Grocery Store brands. We recommend CANIDAE® All Life Stages Formula premium dog food. CANIDAE® is made with high quality human grade products which is ideal for Northern & Working breeds. CANIDAE® is readily available in all areas of the country. A list of Dealers can be found on their website. We do not wish for our dogs to be fed cheap, poor-quality, "grocery store brand" dog foods as they are nutritionally deficient for the unique metabolism of the Siberian Husky and will contribute to health problems..
|
|
|
|
What are you currently feeding your dog or plan to feed your dog?
|
|
|
|
Would you agree to feeding only a premium/high quality dog food?
|
|
|
|
If no, please explain why?
|
|
|
|
We strive to produce Siberians that are physically and mentally sound. However, by no means are our dogs perfect. If a serious issue does arise, we want to be contacted immediately, whether the problem is genetic or otherwise, including death due to any cause. Once again, this helps us to keep accurate records and to be aware of the status of the dogs we have produced.
|
|
|
|
Do you agree to contact us in the event of a serious issue or death?
|
|
|
|
If no, please explain why?
|
|
|
|
Periodically we send out updates about our dogs and we request updates from our Siberian buyers as well. We expect to her back from you at these times as this communication allows us to keep in touch with our buyers & dogs and to ensure that all things are going well.
Note : We encourage our buyers to send updates to us at anytime throughout their Siberians life and of course, we love pictures! :-)
|
|
|
|
Do you agree to our communication requirements?
|
|
|
|
If no, please explain why?
|
|
|
|
In the event you move we require immediate notification. This is to ensure proper registrations are changed. All of our puppies/ dogs have been implanted with a permanent microchip for identification should they become lost or stolen, it is critical that it be updated with all current information and changed when necessary.
|
|
|
|
Do you agree to contact us should you move or have a phone number or e-mail address change?
|
|
|
|
If no, please explain why?
|
|
|
|
As stated earlier, purchasing a new dog is not a decision to be taken lightly and can be a 15+ year commitment. However, if it becomes necessary to re-home the dog we REQUIRE the dog to come back , as well as free of charge to PlayMor Siberians. These dogs must NOT ever be sold, re-homed, given away, surrendered to a shelter or rescue group in any manner and MUST be returned to PlayMor Siberians if their owners can no longer keep them.
|
|
|
|
Do you agree with our Dog return requirements?
|
|
|
|
If no, please explain why?
|
|
|
|
If we do not have a Siberian available for you may we refer you to another reputable breeder?
|
|
|
|

|
|

|
