Puppy Layaway Payment Plan Agreement
This Puppy Layaway Payment Plan Agreement (the "Agreement") is entered into between the breeder (the "Breeder") and the buyer (the "Buyer") on the date listed below.
1. Puppy Information
The specific puppy will be selected and assigned/offered by the Breeder to the Buyer based on the specifications included above and in the New Owner Questionnaire. These specifications include: breed, sex, color/markings, price, personality type, family lifestyle needs, etc.
2. Payment Terms
2.1 Price: The Buyer agrees to pay the total price indicated above through this Layaway Payment Plan.
2.2 Deposit: The Buyer agrees to pay a non-refundable security deposit of $500 to be eligible for the Puppy Layaway Plan. This deposit will be deducted from the total purchase price.
2.3 Installments: The Buyer agrees to make regular non-refundable installment payments towards the total purchase price of the puppy. The installment amount and schedule are as indicated above.
2.4 Late Payments: If the Buyer fails to make any installment payment by the due date, this may result in a delay in receiving a puppy and/or a total price increase if the late payment means the total purchase price is not completed within the 6 months allocated to complete the full layaway payment plan.
2.5 Full Payment: Once the Buyer has completed all the payment installments and the Breeder has received the full payment of the total purchase price, the Breeder agrees to add the Buyer to the puppy waiting list. This means the Buyer's position on the waiting list will be secured at that point and the Buyer will receive a puppy assignment/offer as soon as possible based on their position on the waiting list, puppy availability, personality matching, and other specifications indicated above and in the New Owner Questionnaire.
2.6 Partial Payment: If the Buyer fails to pay the total purchase within 6 months, the Buyer must complete a new Puppy Layaway Form. At that time, if the Breeder's puppy's total purchase price has increased, the Buyer understands that their new agreement will be based on the current puppy price.
3. Ownership Transfer
3.1 Ownership: Once the Breeder offers the Buyer a puppy and the Buyer accepts said puppy, the Breeder agrees to transfer ownership of the puppy to the Buyer as soon as the puppy is picked up, delivered, or shipped.
4. Cancellation & Refunds
4.1 Cancellation & Refunds: The Breeder is providing this Puppy Layaway Program as a free service to the Buyer, and as such the Buyer agrees that there is no option to cancel this agreement or request a refund. The deposit and payment installments are non-refundable. If the Buyer changes their mind and decides not to get a puppy, the payments received by the Breeder will be allocated towards the care of puppies and dogs in the Breeder's program. As an ethical breeder, the Breeder depends on committed buyers to plan appropriately and provide superior ongoing care to the puppies and dogs in the Breeder's program.
5. Miscellaneous
5.1 Governing Law: This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Carroll County, Virginia.
5.2 Entire Agreement: This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes any prior agreements or understandings, whether written or oral.
