COMMON QUESTIONS:

DO I GET TO COME AND VISIT THE PUPPIES? Visiting is at the breeder’s discretion. The health of the puppies is first and foremost. Young puppies have little to no immune system and are susceptible to Parvo Viruses and bacterial elements that are easily brought in innocently on shoes etc. Visiting is allowed at 3-4 weeks old, with an appointment. Alternately digital pictures of the pups are sent out in emails so owners can see the pups growing up. We are using videos for our puppy families. Make sure you give me a cell phone number I can text pictures and videos to.

DO I GET TO PICK MY OWN PUPPY? Yes, you will get to choose the color and sex you prefer. And, we will guide you to the puppy that is best suited to your family and lifestyle.

DO I NEED TO PLACE A DEPOSIT WITH THE BREEDER TO RESERVE A PUPPY? Yes, I require a $200.00 deposit.

WHEN MUST I SEND MY DEPOSIT? Once the application is approved. A CALL to RUTH IS A QUICK WAY TO GET APPROVED (503-842-7983–leave message and I will call you back).

WHAT HAPPENS IF I CHANGE MY MIND. AND, DO NOT WISH TO TAKE THE PUPPY. IS THE DEPOSIT REFUNDABLE? No

WHY IS MY DEPOSIT FORFEITED? Because the breeder has turned away 10 or more people to sell the puppy to you. And does not keep an ongoing list once pups are reserved.

ARE THERE ANY EXCEPTIONS TO THIS RULE? Yes. In the case that the breeder can not provide you with a puppy. (your choice of color & sex). The full deposit is returned.
