Health Guarantee

---

All of our adult dogs are genetically tested before they are bred and  have been tested for all four basset hound hereditary diseases which are: 

Primary Open Angle Glaucoma (Basset Hound Type), Severe Combined Immunodeficiency Disease, X-Linked (Basset Hound Type),and Thrombopathia (Basset Hound Type) and Lafora Disease. 

​We guarantee puppies to not be affected by these genetic disorders that are mentioned above. 

​

Every puppy will be checked by our vet before they leave and come with a health report from the vet. Puppies also come with 30 days of free insurance that we provide at no additional cost to the buyers through Trupanion. If that insurance is not activated within 24 hours of receiving your puppy our health guarantee is voided.

​

Every effort has been made by the breeder to assure that the puppy is healthy when it is delivered to the buyer.  Emma Lou's Baby Bassets will not accept any responsibility for reactions to vaccines/medications, flea and tick preparations, or disorders caused by environmental factors, allergies, thyroid, autoimmune diseases, or parasitic issues that arise.

The buyer must agree to NOT place the puppy in any public areas and grounds including but not limited to, dog parks, pet stores, on the floor at a veterinarian clinic or any other place other dogs have been until all puppy shots have been complete. This is for your puppy's safety against deadly germs.
