This will guarantee you an option to get
one of the puppies, and will be deducted from the final payment. See
Terms and Conditions
If you do have a
deposit and there are not enough puppies, your name will go to the top of the
next waiting list.
We will be looking
to match the pups temperament and personality with a families application,
including preferences and placing each pup in a home we feel is perfect for
them.
Important:
It
is possible that one puppy may receive more requests for their adoption and
others do not receive any requests. In almost every case, you will not be the
only one requesting the adoption of an individual puppy. If there is a puppy that does not receive
requests for an adoption or the right home is not found out of the applicants
who request the adoption, we will open the application link so others may submit
their application for the adoption of that puppy until we do find the best home.
Obviously only one family can receive the puppy. (Please keep this in mind and
make it clear to the children in the family, and yourself. Don't count on
anything until the final payment is paid)
Remember the more
you require of your puppy's appearance or gender, the more difficulty we will
have finding the right puppy. The more difficult, the longer the wait.
***
If you want the puppy, paypal is the quickest. If
we do not receive your deposit and someone else gets one in before you then the
puppy is theirs. Some litters go very fast.***

After sending the
deposit, should you decide not to adopt a puppy, you will forfeit your
deposit. Remember, the reason for the deposit is to show your commitment to one
of our puppies, if you change your mind the loss of your deposit is your
penalty. Please think about it and talk it over with everyone involved BEFORE
submitting an application.
All of our puppies are born in the house in our bedroom, or our daughter's
bedrooms- Each of us have our favorites and each of us are responsible for these
puppies from conception on... so they are part of our family from the beginning.
At 2 weeks the
puppies are wormed.
By the age of 4
weeks, the puppies are moved to the main portion of the house where they can
begin exploring new sounds, smells, and tastes. They begin the weaning process
then. They are wormed again at this time.
At 5 weeks of age they are allowed to go outside, weather permitting.
At 6 weeks of age, they have their aptitude test, go to the vet for all the
necessary immunizations, wormings, medications, well-puppy check-up, etc
At age
8 weeks, the puppies are wormed again. If you have the puppy at this time, you
are responsible for worming the puppy. This is a common procedure, and should
not surprise anyone that the puppy has worms. As with all living things, puppies
carry germs also...take precautions, wash your hands frequently and do not put
their feces in your mouth by way of your dirty hands, or you will end up with
worms also.
At 9
weeks and 12 weeks the puppies are due for their next series of vaccinations.
They get the rabies shot after age 6 months.
We also
observe and play with the puppies over the first 5 weeks to see their
reactions to one another and to notice their interactions with people. This
gives us a good idea of what kind of environment each puppy will thrive
in, and helps us find the right home for each puppy's personality.
When most people go
to a breeder to adopt a puppy they do not get to see the puppy's true
personality. We have had people come to see the puppies and choose one that may
not be good for their situation. When we do testing it is done at the most
active time of the puppy's day giving us accurate personality results. We really
get to know the puppies personalities, and can give you a description of
each one.
We will then help
you choose which puppy would fit into your family the best.
