At Shadowtaw Ridge™, our contracts are built to protect three things: the dogs, the families, and the future of the breed.
These agreements are simple, clear, and designed to give you confidence in your puppy purchase.
Our agreements protect the pack — and give every family confidence.

Spay & Neuther Agreement
At Shadowtaw Ridge™, every dog placed in a pet home is sold with a spay/neuter requirement. This ensures the health of the dog, prevents accidental litters, and protects the integrity of the Australian Shepherd breed. This agreement is designed to give families peace of mind while safeguarding the future of our pack.
-
Health Guarantee & Purchase Agreement
We stand behind the health and soundness of every Shadowtaw Ridge™ puppy. Each pup comes with a one-year general health guarantee and hip and elbow coverage through 24 months, supported by our full testing program.
This agreement explains both your protections as the buyer and your responsibilities as the owner, giving every puppy the strongest possible start.

Return & Rehome Policy
No Shadowtaw Ridge™ dog will ever end up in a shelter. Our contract ensures that if life circumstances change, the dog comes back to us first. This commitment protects both families and dogs, and it reflects our promise that once you join the pack, you are never alone.
