LITTER GRADING:

TERMS AND CONDITIONS:

  1. Client agrees to pay all entry fees. As a standard business practice, handlers are responsible for choosing shows and entering dogs. To do such, we use Best In Show entry service, 1(800) 247-7005, to make entries. Therefore each client must create and maintain a FAX/phone entry account. If a client chooses to do their own entries, they assume responsibility for checking with handlers on a weekly basis to find out which shows to enter.
  2. It is further understood that failure of client to enter dog (client forgets, the entry service fails to get the entry in, entries get lost in the mail, etc.) after verbally contracting the handlers to show a dog for a specific show or shows will result in assessment of full handling fees for said show(s). Fees will also be assessed in full if client pulls a dog after close of entries or within 24 hours of closing date for a given show. Extreme emergencies will be considered on an individual basis.
  3. It is understood that the owner of the dog will assume all costs incurred by the handlers for any medical treatment by a veterinarian required for the dog while under supervision of the handlers. It is further agreed that the handlers shall determine the need for any veterinary care for the animal while under their supervision.
  4. It is the client's responsibility to advise the handlers of any habits the dog may have that could possibly present a problem in giving safe and adequate care in the handlers facility or at the dog show. It is also the client's responsibility to furnish instructions and medication if the dog is on medication of any kind.  All clients are required to keep their dog's shots current per their vet's recommendation.
  5. It is understood that the handlers, Phil & Amy Booth, also exhibit dogs that they co-own or co-bred. In case of ring conflict, priority will be at the discretion of the handlers. Owners that have supported the handlers consistently and over the longest period of time will have priority.  If necessary, a competent substitute handler will be secured to show your dog and the normal handling fee will be charged. In the event that no competent handler is available, the dog will be marked absent and no handling fee will be charged.
  6. As per AKC Registered Handler guidelines, handlers shall maintain proper Care and Custody Insurance for all dogs in their care.
  7. Payment is due and payable upon receipt of each invoice. All payments are expected to be received by the 10th of each month. A 10% late fee will be assessed on accounts 30 days past due. Any and all disputes regarding payment, which cannot be agreed upon satisfactorily between client and handlers, will be settled in a courthouse of Phil & Amy Booth's choice. It is further agreed that client shall pay any and all reasonable legal fees and court costs should this action become necessary to collect any indebtedness. No dogs will be returned to owners unless their bill has been paid in full.
  8. A $1,000.00 deposit is required per dog and will be refunded with the final statement.  It is understood that dogs will be returned only upon full payment of bill.
