How To Purchase A Puppy
We try to make everything as easy as possible when purchasing a puppy. To many people, buying a puppy off the internet is a bit unnerving, we understand this completely and we welcome you to ask any questions. Hopefully this page will answer some of those questions for you and make you feel more at ease with the transaction.
We require a $250.00 non-refundable deposit to hold a puppy that is less than 8 weeks of age, puppies over 8 weeks of age will be required to be paid for in full no matter the delivery date. If you are not able to take possession of the puppy (8 weeks or older) right away we will hold it for you for a short time, but payment must be made in full. Please do not ask us to hold a puppy for you for more than 3 weeks, that isn't fair for the puppy as they need to bond with their new family. In the event that you can not complete the purchase of the puppy your deposit will be held and you may apply it to a future puppy. You will have 1 year to utilize the deposit after which time your deposit will be forfeited.
You can send a deposit by using my PayPal.me link:
https://www.paypal.me/sherridawn
We accept PayPal, the preferred method. The deposit can be sent by postal mail, but we can only wait 5 days for the payment to arrive, after which time the puppy will be re-listed. To avoid this, we suggest making the deposit by using PayPal, and this will ensure that your puppy is securely held. The balance due may be paid by using PayPal, cashiers check or postal money order.
Please Note: We will not tolerate charge-backs! Any charge-backs will be prosecuted to the fullest and will be turned over to a collection agency, after which it will be reported to all credit reporting agencies as an unpaid debt that will remain on your record until paid in full.
Microchips:
We can implant a microchip in your puppy for an additional $20.00. The microchip will be implanted just under the skin along the top of the shoulder blades. A microchip registration form will be sent in your puppy's paperwork, you can register the chip online or by telephone. We use and recommend the Pro-ID Mini Chip which is substantially smaller than the original microchip. Please let us know ahead of time if you would like your puppy microchipped.
