Once the product is deemed to have a manufacturing fault and not a fault or problem caused by wear and tear or incorrect use or product settings, we will advise you how to proceed and where to return the item and help you to facilitate the fastest possible resolution of your problem.

 

CUSTOM MADE & MADE-TO-ODER items
All sales are final for
custom made-to-order  items.
These items cannot be returned, exchanged or refunded.
We rely solely on information provided by the customer regarding measurements and cannot be held responsible if such measurements are incorrect.

Bedding products (heated beds, cooling beds and other bedding products) fences, Doggles and any items not manufactured by My Pet are not accepted for return to My Pet for exchange or refund. Any defects in these items are COVERED BY THE MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTY. We will assist by providing any missing invoices for such goods. When applying for a Return Merchandise Authority you will be advised where to return such products.

Products which cannot be exchanged or returned to My Pet

NOTE THAT DOG BEDDING (Heated or Cooling) & DOGGLES CANNOT BE EXCHANGED FOR HEALTH REASONS. A template for Doggles sizing is available upon request to assist you in choosing the correct size. For bedding we suggest outlining the dimensions on the floor with newspaper to view the actual size.

Items which have been worn or used cannot be exchanged. Exchanges are only accepted for certain items manufactured by My Pet which are standard-stock-size items, subject to stock availability. E.g. for dog hats, jumpers and coats where the customer has ordered the wrong size. Such exchange is subject to the prior approval by My Pet in the form of a Return Merchandise Authority number and payment of any additional costs incurred in such exchange. Exchange orders will not proceed until any outstanding additional payments have been received by My Pet.

Adjustment of Change to Order Value & Shipping Costs for Exchange items
Any additional costs and shipping charges applicable on any exchange item is the responsibility of the customer. The order will not proceed until payment has been made in full. My Pet will issue a separate invoice for any such amount. My Pet reserves the right to issue any credits for exchanges as a “store credit” for future orders.
