Puppy application is at the bottom of this page....
We don't allow our puppies to be taken into just any home. We are selective when it comes to deciding who will have the opportunity to have get one of our puppies. The following steps need to be followed in order to be considered.
1. Fill out our online application (see below). You will be contacted within 48 hours of the submission of the questionnaire. 2. Once you have been approved by us, we will let you know via email or text (whichever you prefer). At this point you must send us a $500 non-refundable* deposit. We will let you know our mailing address or paypal information once you are selected. 3. Once your $500 non-refundable* deposit has cleared, your puppy of choice will be taken off our available puppy page.
*the $500 deposit is refundable ONLY if something catastrophic happens to the entire litter and/or there are no puppies remaining when it is your turn to select a puppy. If you simply change your mind about getting a puppy, the $500 will not be returned/refunded in any way.
**We, the breeder, reserve the right to have first pick of the litter, if we decide to do so
Puppy Pack Our puppies go to their new homes with a puppy pack. The puppy pack includes a toy, a blanket with the mothers/litters scent, enough food to last several days and an informational pack about how to care for your new puppy.
Non-refundable Deposit If you would like for us to hold a puppy for you until he/she is ready to go to a new home you must make a non-refundable deposit. Once you choose your puppy we no longer list that puppy as available. If you change your mind at a later time, we have lost precious time for finding the perfect home for that puppy.
Visiting Us We allow visitors once the puppies have received their vaccinations. This usually occurs around 6 weeks of age.
Vaccinations Our puppies will come to you with the first set of shots and de-worming. A health certificate from our vet will be included if you will be traveling with your puppy by plane.
Transportation We will not ship our puppies but we can meet you, personally, at a nearby airport (Louisville, KY or Indianapolis, IN). You are welcome to carry the puppy on the airline with you as a carry-on. If you opt to do this, we will provide a health slip from our vet.
