The deposit on our pups is $100, however, we do not accept an actual
monetary deposit on the pups until after after they are 4 weeks old. We do however, accept a verbal
"reservation" at any time, which gives a person the choice of pup from a particular litter.
All you need to is drop me an email that says "I want to reserve a choice in
(whatever dog) litter, include gender and color" we then honor your request. If
your request is one of the first eight received we place you on the "Primary
Reservation List" for that litter. After 8 reservations, we place you on
"Secondary Reservation List"
When the pups are 4 weeks old we send an email to everyone on the Primary
List, telling folks they may place a deposit on the pup of their
choice. If a monetary deposit ($100) is not received by the time a pup is 5
weeks old, an email goes to folks on the "Secondary Reservation List" . The
Secondary Reservation List are all the folks that would like a pup from that
particular litter but the Primary List (8 pups) was already full when they paced
their reservation. The Secondary
List is not a bad thing! Things change! Many times family circumstances
change or folks get tired of waiting and buy another pup. So as folks drop off
the Primary List we rotate folks on from the Secondary List in the order that
they got on the list. Actually about half of the folks on any given Primary
List, do not exercise their reservation.
Starting at age 4 weeks, and each week following, I post individual puppy pictures and weights on the
website. Next to each pups picture a PayPal button will appear when the email
goes out. Folks on the Primary List are provided a User Name and Password to access
those buttons. In this manner we accept deposits on a date/time stamp value on a
first come, first served basis. I open sales to anyone when the pups are 6 weeks
old. I have had folks parked in my driveway waiting for the Primary List email to go out (I
don't take any deposits until the email goes, so everyone is on a level playing
field).
So to recap, the 8 primary choices are insured of a pick, after that the
remaining pups are available for the folks on the Secondary list, choices are
honored in the order deposits are received. Deposits may be placed in person or
using a PayPal button next to the pups picture on the website.
I will place you on the "no obligation" reservation list if you
send me an email stating
the litter you want a pup from, the gender and color that you prefer. When you
get your email for a choice, you may pick any pup that is available in that
litter, not limited to gender and color. That info is purely for everyone's
planning purposes.
Once a deposit is placed, you may change your mind at any time and choose a
different pup that has not already been chosen, from that litter, however your
deposit is not refundable, it may be applied to any pup in any future litter. We
ask if you change your mind while waiting for your pup, to please drop us an
email and let us know so we can give your reservation to someone else.
NOTE: We will hold your pup until the pup is 8 weeks old. At that time
because we strongly feel the pup should be with you by that time and because of
our birthing schedule and cleaning/disinfecting requirements we must charge a
boarding fee of $20 per day (or any part of a day) until the pup is picked up.
