Picks are made in deposit order after the Breeder’s pick. I’ll contact you to schedule a visit, or we can video chat or share pictures and videos if you can’t come in person. You’ll receive plenty of updates from birth until pick day, so you may already have a favorite in mind. If you switch from male to female or vice versa, your pick spot will adjust accordingly.

The Seller provides a two-year warranty against debilitating congenital defects, including hips, elbows, eyes, heart, and DNA conditions such as PRCD PRA, vWd1, GRPRA2, NEWS, GR-PRA1, ICH, and DM. All efforts have been made to prevent hereditary issues in breeding.

A debilitating congenital defect is defined as a life-threatening condition or one that prevents the puppy from fulfilling its intended purpose. Any suspected defect must be confirmed by a licensed veterinarian, with records provided to the Seller within seven days of diagnosis. The Seller may require a second opinion from a veterinarian at their expense. If necropsy results are inconclusive, the warranty is void.

If a congenital defect is confirmed, the Buyer may receive a replacement puppy of equal or lesser value from the next available litter, with no need to return the original puppy. Replacement timing may take 6-12 months, and color or gender is not guaranteed. Shipping costs for the replacement puppy are the Buyer’s responsibility.

If the puppy is euthanized or disposed of without a second opinion from the Seller’s veterinarian, the Buyer waives all rights to a replacement. This warranty does not cover viral illnesses, infections, improper bites, stress-related conditions, parasites, cancer, endocrine disorders, ingestion of foreign objects, or physical injury. No other warranties are made, and this warranty is non-transferable.

Puppies go home at 8 to 12 weeks of age.

The parents are tested for:

– Hips: Checked for joint issues through OFA (Orthopedic Foundation for Animals) or PennHIP, which assess hip health.
– Heart: Evaluated by OFA to ensure proper heart function.
– Eyes: Examined by OFA to screen for any eye problems.
– Elbows: Tested by OFA for elbow joint health.
– Patellas (for Minis and Mediums): Checked by OFA for knee stability.
– Genetic conditions: PRCD-PRA, vWd1, GRPRA2, NEWS, GR-PRA1, ICH, and DM.

OFA ensures that these tests meet high standards to prevent genetic issues.

All our pets go to Edinburgh Animal Hospital. Puppies are wormed every 2 weeks and get a full vet exam and vaccine at 7 weeks.

All puppies go home with a puppy package that includes a Snuggle Puppy, toy, collar and leash, blanket with littermates’ scent, vet records, and registration papers, all packed in a canvas bag!
