PRE-ADOPTION APPLICATION FOR PUPPIES

In order for us to help you select the "right" dog for your specific needs please answer the following questions the best you can. The information on this form helps us to get to know a little bit about you and what traits you are looking for in a dog. Although these questions may seem personal they are important. The more you can tell us about yourself and your home life will enable us to make the best choice of a puppy for you and to find the very best home for each puppy.


We have Rani / Tazer puppies as of January 26th, 2012. They will be ready for their new homes the last week of March 2012.

Good Faith Deposit: A good faith deposit of $300 is required to ensure you are considered for any upcoming litter. Without the deposit, we will match puppies to those who have made a Good Faith Deposit. Please read the Sales Contract for terms and conditions with making your Good Faith Deposit.

  1. All deposits will be returned if bitch does not conceive or no puppy is available. If buyer chooses, he/she may leave deposit for next available litter.
  2. Deposits will not be returned for buyers deciding to buy from other breeders, or change of mind etc. The only refundable deposits are for unavailability of puppy promised from dam and sire, stated above.
  3. No personal checks will be accepted unless presented prior to 30 days of scheduled "shipment" or "pickup" of puppy. Recommended payment is money order or cashier's check. Under no circumstances will a puppy be released without full payment.

Note:Completing the Puppy Application does not guarantee the buyer any particular puppy. The only guarantee is when the LER (Litter Evaluation Report) is completed at approximately 8 weeks old. At that time, we will review the results of each puppies test and then match it with puppy applications. When testing the process is complete, you will be notified. You may be notified earlier should we feel we already have a match.
