Purchasing a Puppy
Picking positions are decided by the order in which deposits are received. As most of our puppies are sold before they are born, we strongly recommend that you send a deposit to reserve a puppy once you have decided on a particular litter or color/gender. If you have questions or would like suggestions as to which litter might fit your needs best please contact us, we will be happy to assist you. Your deposit is fully refundable up until the litter in which you have placed that deposit on is six weeks of age.
Selecting a puppy
We strongly encourage new owner participation. A puppy is a lifetime commitment (on average 10 - 12 years), it is important that you have the correct chemistry with your new puppy. You are allowed and encouraged to come out and play with them. This will make your selection process a little easier.
Progress Reports and Pictures
For those of you that do not live close enough, or are to busy to visit with the puppies before they go home we will post pictures and progress reports as often as possible. These progress reports will include updates on dewclaw removal, health checks, vaccinations, wormings, etc. If at anytime you have a question about a particular puppy give us a cal or send us an e-maill, we love to talk about our babies.
Pick-Up/Go Home Weekend
This is the weekend that the puppies are eight weeks of age. We will schedule an appointment according to the picking list. We try VERY hard to accommodate everyone's schedules, but if for some reason you are not able to make it out to select your puppy, we will pick your puppy for you. We do this by talking with you to see what traits you would like or dislike in your puppy. If you are unhappy with the puppy that we have selected for you we will be glad to forward your deposit to our next available agreed upon litter.
Puppies are able to join their new families when they are eight weeks old. If you are unable to pick your puppy up on the posted pick up weekend you may be subject to a $5 a day boarding fee. Please contact us as soon as possible if you cannot pick your puppy up on the posted weekend. We will send out an e-mail to those who have submitted deposits the date of the pick-up weekend once the puppies are born.
