We are more than happy to answer any questions regarding making sure a puppy is the right fit for you; however, we strongly suggest you do your own independent research. You can consult books, websites, You Tube videos, or friend with that breed. There is no shortage of information out there so its a good idea to check out multiple sources along with talking to us to make sure you’re making the right decision. We want all of our puppies to go to the right home, and we will do everything possible to ensure that outcome. our ultimate goal your responsibility to make sure you know what breed your getting and that you can provide a healthy and happy home for whatever puppy you adopt.
If its before they’re ready to go home or if its going to be a few days before you can pick the puppy up, we will ask for a non-refundable deposit of usually $100 to hold the puppy. The deposit goes into the total price and can be paid by cash, or Pay Pal. Once you place your deposit, you are expected to make arrangements to pick up your puppy within 14 days of its ready date or be subject to a boarding fee with some exceptions. The remaining balance must be paid in full either before or at pick up.
At this time, all of our puppies are picked up in person at our location. For customers who are unable to make the trip, we can connect you with a USDA-registered flight nanny who offers nationwide hand-delivery service. This is a separate service coordinated directly between you and the nanny, and all arrangements and costs are handled independently. If you are interested in this option, please let us know and we’ll be happy to provide her information after your reservation is confirmed.
If using the flight nanny service, the remaining balance for your puppy must be paid in full at least 72 hours before transport. A video conference will be scheduled before your puppy leaves to answer any questions and go over care instructions.
