Puppy Reservations for
Upcoming Litters

Future Litters
being added to our reservation list, making deposits,
watching puppies grow, and take home

The very first step of our process is the completion of your application. Upon approval of your submitted puppy questionnaire for our upcoming future litters, we will accept early deposits in the amount of $100.00 PRIOR to the litter being born to secure your place on our future reservation list. The date of which you pay the deposit will determine your selection order once you select a posted litter under the future drop down menu to move forward with. 

 

Deposits are not refundable. Once we have received a deposit from you, we will send you the paid receipt and then proceed according to your personal preferences.

 

If your time frame for bringing a puppy home exceeds all estimated take home dates for all posted future litters, we will need for you to monitor the website yourself and let us know when there is a litter that meets your time frame for taking a puppy home. Once you contact us to let us know that you have selected a posted litter, we will activate the deposit and add you to the reservation list for your preferred litter to begin the process. Future litters can be viewed under the future litter drop down menu and are typically posted at the time of breeding, though some may be posted closer to the whelp date. 

​

At any time, you can also speed things up and simply choose an available puppy showing online if you catch one that meets your eye instead of waiting for a future litter. At all times, simply let us know how we can best help you.

 

Once puppies are born and photos/videos are posted at the 2 week mark, if you don't like them for whatever reason or if you decide it is not the best time to move forward with a puppy and you need to delay, we will need to know immediately, prior to the 3 week old mark, or your deposit will be forfeited. Your name on the reservation list takes up space and reserves a puppy. If you confirm you want to move forward with a specific litter and then you fail to let us know you need to delay within the proper timing, your deposit will be forfeited. If you need to delay for any reason and you let us know immediately prior to puppies turning 3 weeks old, we will simply withdraw your name from the litter and ask that you let us know when you would like to start the processed as previously detailed. Please note that we will rely on you to contact us to let us know how you wish to proceed when the time is right. We rely on you to monitor the website and keep us informed of your decisions.

​

Once the litter you would like to proceed with has been born and pictures have been posted, our next step will be sending out our preparation document to help you prepare for bringing a puppy home and also the selection order and additional details on the next steps. Once you have selected a puppy, an additional $150 deposit will be required until pickup, transport, or flight is arranged. Once your puppy has been selected, we will remove your puppy from online and forward you all of the posted images or video. We will continue to update your puppy's photos or videos every 2 weeks as time allows until take home and send them to you via email. Puppies that haven't been selected from the litter will continue to be posted online with their individual updates. If at any point after selecting your puppy, if you would like to decline your original choice and select a different puppy from the litter that you have confirmed with us that the puppy is available, that is perfectly acceptable and not an issue. 

 

Videos of the puppy will be taken PROVIDED weather and temperatures allow. If it is cold outside, puppies aren't happy, do not play, and instead sulk and cry and shiver and look sad. In winter, we will need a 60-70F degree day for videos to be taken so the puppies and our kids are cooperative. If the weather is too hot and over 90F, we don't encourage puppies to run around as much as we do in Spring and Fall so they don't develop heat exhaustion. A puppy that is hot doesn't run, doesn't look as active, and isn't as playful, and will lay on the ground or in the shade where it is cooler instead of running around and playing. We frequently get comments about videos that the puppy doesn't seem active enough. If temps are above 90F, we ask you to consider wearing a fur coat and running several laps around your house to give you a more realistic expectation. If it is cold, we recommend that you wear a thin cotton shirt and pants without shoes outside and walk around your house a few times to better understand how puppies are reacting to the cold. Weather seriously affects how puppies act. Your patience and understanding is always greatly appreciated. The winter and summer months make videos difficult if temps are extreme. Rainfall also causes video issues. Puppies don't like to get rained on and neither do we.  If we are experiencing weather issues, we will do our best to take a short video just to allow you to see the puppy moving around as it ages in addition to photos. 

​

All of our puppies go through the same socialization process and are happy and bubbly and very similar in temperament by the time they are 8 weeks old. Puppies begin developing their true personalities at the age of 12-16 weeks after they are home with you. We will expect pickup, transport, or flight of you puppy at 8 weeks old which is when we release litters. The specific date range will be provided online and in the preparation document you are sent upon posting the litter online. You are always welcome to contact us with any questions via text or email.

Puppies That Have Been Born
reserving an available posted puppy for your family

If you are interested in purchasing a posted puppy marked as available for purchase and you haven't previously submitted an application within the last 6 months, in order to be considered for a puppy from our litters that have been born, you must first complete an application. Once your application is approved, to continue with the reservation of your preferred puppy, a $250 deposit is required. Once your deposit has been received, we will follow up with the final invoice, our preparation document to prepare you for bringing your new puppy home, AKC registration info request, and also information on Pet Health Insurance.

​​​

We ask that families stay on the puppies for sale page for updates on litters once they whelp, however, you are always welcome to contact us if preferred. Once the litter whelps, we will transfer the litter listing from our future litter drop down menu to the available dogs and puppies drop down menu and announce the litter as whelped online on the puppies for sale page. Once puppies are 2 weeks old, we will update the website with photos of the babies on the puppies for sale page. 

​

Once your application is approved and you are ready to select a puppy that is available for sale, your deposit of $250 will continue to hold the puppy for you until it is 8 weeks old and ready for pickup, flight, or transport. If at any time after making a deposit and reserving a specific puppy, if you would like to change your original puppy selection to a different puppy that is confirmed as available, that is acceptable. Upon a change request, we will then remove your new puppy choice online and forward you the photos of the new puppy you have selected and add your original puppy choice back online for sale. Your deposit will only hold one puppy at a time. If you are undecided on which puppy you would like, we will require a deposit of $250 and we will schedule a visit to allow you to ultimately select from puppies that remain available for purchase at that time of your visit. 

​

We will continue to update photos and/or videos as the puppy grows once every 2 weeks +/-. Videos of the puppy will be taken PROVIDED weather and temperatures allow. If it is cold outside, puppies aren't happy, do not play, and instead sulk and cry and shiver and look sad. In winter, we will need a 60-70F degree day for videos to be taken so the puppies and our kids are cooperative. If the weather is too hot and over 90F, we don't encourage puppies to run around as much as we do in Spring and Fall so they don't develop heat exhaustion. A puppy that is hot doesn't run, doesn't look as active, and isn't as playful, and will lay on the ground or in the shade where it is cooler instead of running around and playing.

​

Once a puppy has been selected, we will forward you our preparation document to prepare you for bringing your puppy home and other necessary documents. We will work with you to schedule pickup, flight, or ground transport for your puppy. Puppies are released at 8 weeks old. All puppies are up to date on vaccinations and preventative medications.

​​​​​

Release At 8 Weeks Old

We release puppies to their new homes at the age of 8 weeks old.  The preparation email that we provide upon puppy selection and receiving a reservation deposit will detail the date range for puppy pickups. Extended holds may be available for some litters upon requests. Additional charges for vaccines or extra keep may apply. If you will need your puppy flown or transported via a ground relocation service, we will guide you through this process and answer any questions that you have. We are very experienced when it comes to helping with transport and will do our very best to make the process as stress-free as possible for you. Puppies will be fully up to date on vaccinations, dewormer, and flea control once the are released from our kennel.
