Stokeshire Designer Doodles Pick of the Litter (POL) Agreement

This agreement (“Agreement”) is entered into by and between Stokeshire Designer Doodles (“Breeder”) and the undersigned purchaser (“Buyer”) and governs the terms and conditions of the purchase of the "Pick of the Litter" (POL) option.

1. Non-Refundable and Non-Transferable Nature of POL

Buyer acknowledges and agrees that the POL fee is non-refundable and non-transferable under any circumstances, including but not limited to situations where:

• Buyer decides not to take the puppy.

• Buyer becomes unable to take the puppy for any reason.

• Buyer changes their preferences or timeline.

2. Breeder’s Right to Retain Puppies

Buyer acknowledges that the Breeder reserves the right to retain any puppy from any litter at any time and for any reason. This includes but is not limited to puppies retained for the Breeder’s breeding program or placed in a guardian home. This right supersedes any POL selections, and Buyer agrees to select from the remaining eligible puppies.

3. Buyer Acknowledgements

Buyer further acknowledges and agrees to the following:

• Litter Sizes and Timelines: Breeder cannot control litter sizes, and wait times for puppies may be longer than anticipated.

• Selection Process: The POL option provides Buyer with a priority selection spot but does not guarantee a specific puppy or that Buyer’s preferences will be available when it is their turn to pick.

• Pick Order: POL positions are assigned on a first-come, first-served basis, and Buyer’s position in line is non-negotiable.

• Puppy Traits: Breeder does not and cannot guarantee specific traits or qualities of a puppy when it matures.

4. Circumstances Affecting Litters

In the event the female dog does not become pregnant, skips a heat, or if the planned litter is canceled altogether:

• The Breeder will make reasonable efforts to arrange a mating with the same male or a comparable male to produce puppies with similar characteristics and temperaments as anticipated.

• If no comparable alternative is available, the POL fee may be refunded at the Breeder’s sole discretion.

5. Deposit and Final Purchase Price

• The POL fee does not apply to the total purchase price of the puppy and does not serve as a deposit.

• A separate deposit is required to secure the puppy and will be applied to the final purchase price. The remaining balance must be paid in full prior to the puppy’s transfer or shipment.

6. Governing Law

This Agreement and any disputes arising from it shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Wisconsin without regard to its conflict of laws principles.

7. Acceptance of Terms

By purchasing the POL option, Buyer acknowledges that they have read, understood, and agreed to all terms and conditions outlined in this Agreement.

Reservation Service Duration

• 48-Hour Hold Policy: Puppies held under the $100 Reservation Service will be reserved for a maximum of 48 hours. During this time, no other potential adopters will have access to the puppy.

• Scheduling Exceptions: If Stokeshire Designer Doodles is unable to schedule a virtual meeting within the 48-hour window due to unforeseen circumstances or scheduling conflicts, the hold may be extended until a mutually agreeable time is arranged.

• Failure to Schedule: If no virtual meeting can be scheduled within this period, the reservation will be canceled, and the Reservation Hold Fee will be processed according to the Refund Policy.

Breeder's Choice

"Breeder's Choice" means that Stokeshire Designer Doodles reserves the right to select and retain any puppy from any litter at any time and for any reason. This selection may be made for the Breeder’s exclusive breeding program, placement in a guardian home, or other purposes at the Breeder’s discretion. Additionally, we reserve the right to sell our dogs to whomever we wish or choose not to sell to whomever we wish for any reason. Buyers with designated pick positions will select from the remaining eligible puppies after the Breeder’s Choice has been made. This policy ensures the Breeder maintains the integrity and quality of their breeding program.
