Terms & Conditions

These Terms & Conditions govern your use of rtk9.net and the information and services made available through the Royal Tribes K9 website. By using this website, you agree to these terms. If you enter into a separate written puppy purchase agreement, reservation agreement, health guarantee, delivery agreement, or other signed agreement with Royal Tribes K9, that separate agreement controls the specific transaction to the extent it conflicts with general website information.

Website Information

We work to keep website information accurate and current, but puppy availability, pricing, photos, delivery options, litter plans, parent information, timing, and other details may change. A website listing does not by itself create a reservation, guarantee availability, or obligate Royal Tribes K9 to complete a transaction.

Puppy and Dog Availability

Availability is subject to change until the applicable reservation or purchase requirements have been completed and accepted. A puppy or dog shown on the website may become reserved, unavailable, or otherwise no longer offered before the website is updated. Contact us for current availability and transaction-specific details.

Reservations, Deposits, and Payments

Any reservation, deposit, payment schedule, cancellation term, refund term, or final purchase requirement is governed by the written terms provided for that specific transaction. Do not rely on a general website page as a substitute for the written agreement associated with your reservation or purchase.

Health Information and Guarantees

Health records, genetic information, veterinary records, parent information, and similar materials may be provided for informational purposes and as described in the applicable transaction documents. Any health guarantee is governed only by the written health guarantee or purchase agreement issued for the specific dog. Website content does not expand, replace, or modify a written health guarantee.

No Veterinary Advice

Educational information on this website, including articles, FAQs, feeding information, training information, health discussions, and breed information, is general information only. It is not veterinary diagnosis or treatment and does not replace advice from a licensed veterinarian who has examined the animal.

Pickup, Delivery, and Transportation

Pickup and delivery options depend on the dog, destination, timing, carrier or transporter availability, applicable rules, and the written arrangements for the transaction. Estimates and general descriptions on the website are not guarantees of a particular delivery date, route, carrier, or cost unless confirmed in writing for the transaction.

Buyer Responsibilities

Prospective owners are responsible for reviewing the information and agreements provided to them, providing accurate contact and delivery information, following applicable laws and animal-care requirements, arranging appropriate veterinary care, and deciding whether a German Shepherd is suitable for their household and circumstances.

Intellectual Property

Unless otherwise stated, the website design, written content, branding, graphics, photographs, videos, pedigrees presented as original site content, and other materials on rtk9.net are owned by or licensed to Royal Tribes K9 and may not be copied, republished, sold, or used commercially without permission or another lawful basis.

Acceptable Use

You may not use the website to interfere with its operation, attempt unauthorized access, introduce malicious code, impersonate another person, submit fraudulent information, or use the site for unlawful activity.

Third-Party Links and Services

The website may contain links to third-party websites, registries, veterinary resources, payment services, social platforms, or other providers. Third-party services are controlled by their respective providers. Royal Tribes K9 is not responsible for third-party content, availability, policies, or actions.

Disclaimer

The website is provided on an “as available” basis for general information and communication. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Royal Tribes K9 does not make warranties about uninterrupted website access or that every page will always be free from errors, omissions, or technical issues.

Limitation of Website Liability

To the extent permitted by applicable law, Royal Tribes K9 is not responsible for indirect or consequential losses arising solely from use of, inability to use, or reliance on general website content. Nothing in these Terms excludes rights or responsibilities that cannot lawfully be excluded.

Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms & Conditions when the website, services, or business practices change. The effective date above identifies the current website version.
