Thank you for taking the time to fill out this questionnaire to help us in finding the right puppy for you.  Please feel free to call us if you wish more information or need questions answered.

If you think you are interested in adding a new family member now or in the near future, please feel free to print off a copy of this questionnaire, fill it out and mail it back to us or you can copy, cut and paste it into a email.  If you would like to come and visit us and our dogs we would be more than happy to set up an appointment for you.  It will also give us a chance to ask you a few more questions so we know exactly what you are looking for in your new puppy.  When placing our puppies we do not work on a first come first serve basis, we will look at the individual lifestyle of each new potential home and match the best puppy to that home.  We do take your considerations into account when choosing the puppies but the most important thing for us is to place the right puppy into the right home.  We have found over the past 20 years this has been the best way to place the puppies, and hope that the puppy that is chosen for your home is a welcomed addition to your family.

If we have a current litter with a puppy available, you have decided you are ready for a puppy and the questionnaire is accepted we do ask for a $200.00 deposit.  The deposit is to show us that you are seriously ready to have a new puppy enter your home and have taken the time to think through all the commitments and time that is needed to raise this new addition to your family.  If for some reason beyond our control a puppy is not available then the deposit will be returned.

 
Thank you.
