Buyer commits to providing a forever home for their dog. Buyer commits to having arrangements made for their dog if they no longer are able to provide a home for their dog including to contact the breeder if this occurs.
The Breeder has ensured the health screens of the puppy parents. More information about this is at the OFA.org website. At a minimum parents are tested for hearing, thyroid and hip health.
Once they are born, puppies have dewclaws removed, they are microchipped, hearing tested via BAER, individually registered with the AKC, and receive basic training. If either parent is LUA, the puppies are DNA tested to identify LUA or HUA pups.
If Buyers wants a show potential puppy, or to breed their dog in the future, the Breeder may include additional terms with a co-ownership agreement. Please note that not every litter has puppies suitable for this criteria.
AKC registered names will be assigned to puppies at the discretion of the Breeder. Pet names will be made by the Buyer.
There is a straightforward process to match puppies with Buyers that makes it fair for the puppies, the Breeder and for Buyers regardless of when they enter the wait list. At the start of the process the Breeder will ask Buyers a number of questions about their circumstances for getting a dog and if there are particular preferences for a puppy. The Breeder will make a best effort to honor preferences, but cannot guarantee availability. If a Buyer has preferences, they must be stated at the start of the agreement and once they are made, they cannot be changed. Please note that having no preference is also a preference and cannot be amended to at a later time. Buyers may wish to consider limiting the number of preferences to one or two to increase availability of a puppy for them. Please note that layering a second process on top of this process at a later point in time isn’t feasible, such as the Breeder providing a group of puppies for Buyers to pick from. The Breeder may have more than one puppy available for a Buyer to choose from, but this cannot be guaranteed. Therefore, Buyers should note that through the preferences they state, the information they share about their circumstances, their deposits, and agreement to the terms in this agreement, they are making a commitment to the Breeder. Also, please note that the timing of when a Buyer is added to the wait list is not used to match Buyers with puppies. At approximately week 7 after puppies are tested, procedures and evaluations are completed, the Breeder will match puppies to Buyers and coordinate arrangements with them to pick their puppy up.
Before the bitch is bred, Buyers can join a wait group by submitting an initial deposit of $500 and agreeing to the Purchase Agreement by returning an email saying 'Agree' to it.
The Breeder will make a reasonable effort to notify Buyers in the wait group about the timing for the bitch to be bred. A second installment of $500 is due before the breeding takes place to remain in the wait group. Failure to do this will result in the Buyer being removed from the wait group and losing their deposit.
After the breeding, Buyers can join the wait group by submitting a $1000 deposit and agreeing to the terms of the Purchase Agreement by returning an email saying 'Agree' to it.
Deposits are refundable up to the time the bitch is bred. Afterwards, deposits are nonrefundable. Note: This includes a Buyer changing their mind or going to another breeder.
If extraneous circumstances occur to the Breeder that impact the production of the litter, the Breeder will return monies to the Buyer in the wait group. Examples are the bitch not becoming pregnant after being bred or death of the bitch before she whelps her puppies. If the Breeder is planning a future litter, Buyers may be offered the option of leaving their deposit with the Breeder.
The unpaid balance is due before the Breeder will transfer puppy ownership to Buyers.
The Breeder accepts payment electronically, via Zelle or Venmo. Both banking utilities provide a detailed footprint of the transaction. Cash or check is not accepted.
