-
We do NOT discriminate to whom we sell our puppies to. We feel as though each family deserves a chance to own the breed of their choice. We are more than happy to answer questions before and after pickup. However, if a deposit is placed and as we get to know more about each family, then determine they are not a good fit for our puppies, the deposit will only then be refunded or can be transferred to another litter after corrections are made. Deposits cannot be refunded if the new owners decide that they aren’t a good fit after they’ve placed a deposit.
-
The Buyer agrees to contact the breeder immediately if any questions or concerns arise about the dog, such as housing, diet, health or training. The buyer agrees to keep the seller informed of any treatment as it occurs. This provides the Breeder/Seller with an opportunity to follow up on puppies and gives us important feedback and information on the health of our dogs for future generations.
-
Registration papers (if applicable) will either be given with the puppy or transferred to the Buyer immediately upon receipt from the AKC or CKC if they are still being processed. It is understood at the time of sale that this puppy is at least a pet quality dog (if applicable) and it is representative of its breed. Show quality cannot be determined at a very young age. The puppy is structurally and temperamentally suited as a companion and/or obedience dog. Training classes are recommended for a happy relationship between the dog and family.
-
Eye color, coat color/markings, coat length are not guaranteed to stay the same or change. This breed can drastically change . We do not breed for specific eye color.

-
Full Rights “Terms and Conditions”: If a puppy is purchased with Full rights (breeding rights), they have been approved by the breeder and have agreed to pay the fee in full. The buyer must provide a detailed account of their breeding program in the puppy application. The breeder has the right to decline or approve a buyer for full rights for any reason. The breeder does not guarantee that the puppy will physically be able to breed in its future. In addition, there is no guarantee that the puppy will produce quality offspring in its future. Since breeding is not considered a necessity, the breeder overall cannot predict and guarantee any sort of breeding future of the puppy.
-
Limited Rights “Terms and Conditions”: If a puppy is purchased with Limited Rights, they are pet only with no breeding rights and will sign a spay/neuter contract. We as the breeder will decide the time frame to alter their puppy. The puppy should not be altered before 12 months of age, no exceptions. Through extensive research and numerous conversations with veterinarians, it's best to spay or neuter after 12 months to allow proper hormonal and bone growth. In this situation, limited registration paperwork will either be given right at pickup or will only be given after proof of spay/neuter is provided (if applicable). To clarify, limited rights means, ABSOLUTELY NO BREEDING OF ANY KIND. You cannot breed to any dog period! (Doesn't matter if the other dog is purebred, mixed, registered with full rights and/or limited rights, or any other registry) If for an unfortunate reason that the buyer breaches their agreement and knowingly breeds the puppy/dog that’s on spay/neuter contract/ limited rights, the breeder has the right to take legal action via small claims court. In addition, the buyer will be fined $1,000 per puppy produced. For all puppies who are on limited registration, a spay/neuter contract will accompany this sales contract.
-
In a situation where the new owners initially purchase their puppy with limited rights and then, later on, decide to try to obtain full rights, they must contact the breeder immediately. Full rights are only given to approved homes. The new owners must notify in writing of their wish and explain their reasoning and breeding program. A fee of $400 must be paid before the breeder can grant full breeding rights.
-
If for any reason, neglect or abuse is suspected, the breeder has the right to repossess /take back ownership of the dog(s) without a refund. Examples of abuse or neglect are (but not limited to): punishing a dog by beating or excessively hitting, leaving the dog confined in their own excrement for long periods of time, not providing food, water or shelter, leaving dogs in vehicles during warmer weather, failing to provide vet care, participating in dog fights, allowing children to mess with the puppy in irresponsible ways, and much more. Legal actions will be taken via court.
