How it Works

1. Submit Application. We only place our puppies in homes that can demonstrate suitability. By filling out basic application information we filter out people that may not be ready to bring a new puppy home.

2. Selection. We will contact you after reviewing your application and let you know if you have been selected. Please be patient! Our selection criteria is designed to help you be ready for a new puppy - and help us determine if your living situation is a good fit for the puppy.

3. Contract. If selected, we will notify you and send you our puppy contract via DocuSign. Our puppy contract includes: an initial health guarantee, a spay-neuter requirement, and a return-to-breeder option (without refund) if you are unable to care for your dog in the future.

4. First come First served. We do not reserve puppies nor do we take deposits. Once your application is approved we schedule you to deliver your signed contract and payment on take home day. If you do not show up, we will not hold the puppy for you, we will move to the next approved buyer.

5. Take Home Day. On the day you pick up your puppy we require the full payment for the puppy. Your puppy will go home with its initial vaccinations, a comfort item with its mother’s scent, and a small bag of its current puppy food. We recommend you bring towels and a carrier to keep your puppy safe and secure on the drive home.
