A $500.00 deposit is required to hold a puppy, and to reserve a future puppy. All deposits are non-refundable. Full payment of your puppy by 4 weeks of age is required. No puppy can be picked up and paid for by a check, because checks take 2 weeks to clear. If you fail to pay for your puppy by 4 weeks, (unless Robert or Melissa have spoken to you and stated otherwise) that puppy will be sold to another party, and your deposit can be transferred to another litter. All puppies come with first shots, vet check-up, written health guarantee against any life threatening genetic defects, and registration papers. A puppy is NOT sold with a guarantee of being a champion, or with a guarantee of being a "breeder" We can only state that the pups come from champion bloodlines. If you live too far, we do ship, the cost for shipping in the U.S. is $350.00, Alaska and Canada may be slightly more. We do allow people whom have made deposits, to come visit our dogs and puppies, just call us to make an appointment. The deposit separates serious inquiries from curious on-lookers, and therefore a deposit is required to be on our waiting list. If you are on our waiting list, you will get pictures of available puppies when they arrive, and will get updated pictures on a weekly basis after you have chosen your pup. When you receive your puppy, you will get a written health guarantee, your AKC registration papers, shot records, sample of NuVet suppliments, and a small bag of Eukanuba small breed puppy food. PLEASE ORDER YOUR NUVET SUPPLIMENTS TODAY!, so you have it available as soon as your new puppy comes home!
