From joining our waitlist to bringing your puppy home, I aim to make the process simple, exciting, and focused on helping you find the perfect match.
A non-refundable $500 deposit secures your place on our waitlist and is applied toward the total puppy price. The remaining balance of $2,300 is due one week prior to go home day.
How the process works:
1. Submit an Application
Families begin by completing our Puppy Application. This helps us learn about your lifestyle, experience, and what you’re hoping for in a companion.
2. Application Review & Approval
Applications are reviewed in the order received.
Approved families may:
• Join the callback list for an upcoming litter, or
• Place a deposit to reserve a puppy from an available litter or a future litter.
3. Puppy Selection
Puppy selections take place at 6 weeks old, either in person or through FaceTime. I help guide families through the selection process by sharing what I’ve learned about each puppy’s temperament and personality to help find the best fit for their family and lifestyle.
4. Reservation & Updates
Once your deposit is received, your puppy reservation is secured. Families receive weekly updates and photos as puppies grow and prepare for their new homes.
5. Go-Home Day
Puppies are ready to go home at 8 weeks or after. The remaining balance is due one week prior to go-home day. Each puppy goes home well socialized and prepared to begin life with their forever families.
