Waiting List Process
Please read in order to get an understanding of how the choosing process works once the puppies have been listed as available!
​

• As the kennel owner and breeder, we reserve the right of overall first pick on every litter.
• A deposit of $250 is required to join our waiting list; once the deposit has been received, your name will be added to the bottom of the waiting list. 
• Once the litter turns 6 weeks old, the first person on the waiting list (#1) will be notified and has 24 hours after availability notification and photos are posted to make their decision to pick their puppy or pass on the litter. (note: eye and coat color is not guaranteed. Eye and coat color can change throughout the next several weeks and even months. We will not hold puppies longer in order to determine eye or coat color; if that is the only factor in choosing a puppy, we may not be the right breeder for you.)
• If #1 is not ready to make their decision by the 24-hour required time limit, they automatically forfeit their pick in line and the pick moves on to the next person on the list (#2). If you forfeit your chance to pick a puppy, you may then pick at any time but you may only choose from the puppies listed as available in any litter currently over 24 hours old, forfeit your deposit completely, or choose to keep your name on the waiting list until another litter becomes available. We do not want to make others further down the list wait any longer than necessary, so when the time comes for puppies to be due, staying in contact with us is very important.
• Each person may only have 24 hours to make their pick before you forfeit your pick to the next person in line. If we do not hear from you within the 24-hour window, you will have forfeited your place in line and we will contact the next person on the list, and so on. We will update everyone on the waiting list as picks are made, so please check your messages regularly.
• After a puppy has been chosen, it will be listed as reserved. You may change your pick at any time until every puppy has been reserved, but keep in mind that you will only have puppies listed as available to choose from at any given time. If you decide that you would like to purchase more than one puppy but have only placed one deposit, you may pick again only after everyone else on the waiting list has made their pick, and if there are any puppies that are left available. We will only hold a second puppy for you for 24 hours! During that time another $250 nonrefundable deposit will be required to hold the puppy, otherwise it will be listed as available. If you have already submitted two deposits, you will make your pick in the order your deposits were received, as usual.
• The full purchase price is due minus the "hold deposit" at the time of pick up. We accept cash only at the time of pick up, no exceptions. Puppies need to be picked up at the designated date provided by the seller, unless previously discussed, and will be charged a $10 per day kenneling fee up until the puppy is 10 weeks old; at which time if your puppy has not been picked up, your deposit will be forfeited and the puppy will be re-listed as available. There will be no kenneling fee charged if the puppy turned 8 weeks old during the work week and you are picking the puppy up on the weekend. If your puppy is being shipped, the full amount for transportation will also be due at least 5 business days before the travel date so we may pay either the transporter at the time of pickup or the airline at the time of drop-off; a puppy will not leave our home if the transportation has not been paid for beforehand. If you are shipping your puppy the pickup or flight drop-off date and details will be discussed with you privately, and no kenneling fees will be incurred unless a timelier pickup date with a similar cost is refused by you.
• If, for whatever reason, you do not find a puppy that you are satisfied with after you have already placed a deposit, you may stay on the waiting list for up to 1 year and choose from any of our litters during that time. If you do not choose a puppy within the 1 year waiting period, your name will be removed from the waiting list and your deposit will be forfeited.
