Question 1

How do I reserve a puppy?

Accepted Answer

Reservations begin with a conversation, not a form. After we speak and understand your household, you may join the waiting list with a deposit that is credited toward your puppy. Families select in list order once temperament assessments are complete at seven weeks.

Question 2

Do you offer a health guarantee?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every puppy leaves with a written two-year guarantee against life-altering hereditary conditions, alongside the full clearance records for both parents. The guarantee is provided in advance so you can read it before committing.

Question 3

What vaccinations will my puppy have?

Accepted Answer

Puppies receive their first vaccinations and two deworming treatments, a microchip, and a complete examination by our licensed veterinarian. You will receive the signed records and a schedule for the remaining series.

Question 4

Do you ship puppies?

Accepted Answer

We do not ship puppies as cargo. For families outside driving distance we arrange a flight nanny who travels in cabin, or we can meet you partway. We are glad to discuss what works for your family.

Question 5

Can we pick up in person?

Accepted Answer

We hope you will. Going Home Day is unhurried — you will meet the parents, walk the property, and leave with records, food and a blanket carrying the scent of the litter.

Question 6

Have the puppies started training?

Accepted Answer

Puppies leave with crate introduction, potty foundations, name recognition, gentle handling and short periods of calm alone-time. These are foundations, not finished behaviors, and we will guide you through what comes next.

Question 7

Are your puppies registered?

Accepted Answer

All puppies are AKC registered. Companion puppies are placed on limited registration with a spay or neuter agreement. Full registration is considered only for approved breeding or performance homes.

Question 8

How does payment work?

Accepted Answer

A deposit reserves your place on the waiting list, with the balance due at pickup. We accept bank transfer, certified check or cash. There is no additional charge for color, sex or markings.
