We aim to ensure a transparent and smooth adoption process. Please take a moment to familiarize yourself with the following policies to prevent any misunderstandings and to help us provide the best experience for both you and your puppy.

Secures your place in line for puppy selection — reservations are processed in the order deposits are received.
Can be paid via credit card through our online reservation system or by check or cash.
Will be applied toward the final adoption fee.

Scheduling an appointment does not hold or guarantee a specific puppy.
After placing an online deposit:
You will receive a confirmation email.
If the selected puppy is already reserved, we will offer an alternative puppy or issue a full refund.
At pickup (around 8 weeks of age):
The remaining balance (plus 6% sales tax and microchip registration) is due.

Puppies will only be released once full payment has been received and verified.

At the time of purchase, the puppy is guaranteed to be in good health, having received age-appropriate vaccinations and deworming, as recorded in the provided health record.
If a licensed veterinarian (DVM) diagnoses a major health issue within 72 hours after leaving our facility, and provides a written statement, a replacement puppy will be offered.
Minor, correctable, or temporary conditions (e.g., parasites, minor infections) are not covered by this guarantee.
We aim to provide genetically healthy puppies. If your puppy is diagnosed within 1 year of purchase with a qualifying genetic disorder, we will offer a replacement puppy of equal value. Covered conditions include:
Hip or elbow dysplasia (must be verified by OFA or PennHIP)
Pathological spinal disorders
Luxating patella
Persistent/open fontanel

The buyer agrees to:
Provide proper care, including quality food, safe shelter, routine vaccinations, and deworming.
Offer consistent physical and emotional care.
Understand that the breeder is not responsible for any veterinary expenses after purchase.
Accept full liability for any accidents, injuries, or behavioral issues once the puppy is in their possession.
Acknowledge that death, injury, or loss due to theft, neglect, abuse, heatstroke, or accidents does not entitle the buyer to compensation.
Recognize that this puppy is sold as a companion animal only, not for breeding or show purposes.
Due to variations in diet, environment, and developing immune systems, we highly recommend using NuVet Plus immune system supplement.
Administering NuVet Plus daily according to the manufacturer’s recommendation will extend the genetic health warranty by an additional 12 months (total of 2 years).
To qualify:
NuVet Plus must be given daily for the entire original warranty period.
You must use the recommended dosage consistently.
✳️ Failure to comply will void the extended warranty.
