6.3 Occasionally our delivery to you may be affected by an Event Outside Our Control. See clause 13 (Events outside our control) for our responsibilities when this happens.

6.4 Delivery is complete once the Goods have been delivered at the address for delivery set out in your order and the Goods will be at your risk from that time.

6.5 You own the Goods once we have received payment in full, including of all applicable delivery charges.

6.6 If we fail to deliver the Goods, our liability is limited to the cost of the Goods. However, we will not be liable to the extent that any failure to deliver was caused by an Event Outside Our Control, or because you failed to provide adequate delivery instructions or any other instructions that are relevant to the supply of goods.

7. No international delivery

7.1 Unfortunately, we do not deliver to addresses outside the UK.

7.2 You may place an order for Goods from outside the UK, but this order must be for delivery to an address in the UK.

8. Price of goods and delivery charges

8.1 The prices of the Goods will be as quoted on our site at the time you submit your order. We take all reasonable care to ensure that the prices of Goods are correct at the time when the relevant information was entered onto the system. However, please see clause 8.5 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of Goods you ordered.

8.2 Prices for our Goods may change from time to time, but changes will not affect any order you have already placed.

8.3 The price of Goods excludes VAT (where applicable) at the applicable current rate chargeable in the UK for the time being. However, if the rate of VAT changes between the date of your order and the date of delivery, we will adjust the VAT you pay, unless you have already paid for the Goods in full before the change in VAT takes effect.

8.4 The price of the Goods does not include delivery charges. Our delivery charges are as advised to you during the check-out process, before you confirm your Order. To check relevant delivery charges and time periods, please refer to our Delivery Information page [Delivery Information : Treat Your Dog].

8.5 We sell a large number of Goods through our site. It is always possible that, despite our reasonable efforts, some of the Goods on our site may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices as part of our dispatch procedures so that:
(a) where the Goods' correct price is less than the price stated on our site, we will charge the lower amount when dispatching the Goods to you; and
(b) if the Goods' correct price is higher than the price stated on our site, we will contact you as soon as possible to inform you of this error and we will give you the option of continuing to purchase the Goods at the correct price or cancelling your Order. We will not process your Order until we have your instructions. If we are unable to contact you using the contact details you provided during the order process, we will treat the Order as cancelled and notify you in writing. However, if we mistakenly accept and process your Order where a pricing error is obvious and unmistakeable and could reasonably have been recognised by you as a mispricing, we may cancel supply of the Goods and refund you any sums you have paid.
