Frequently Asked Questions

Thank you for your interest in our puppies! We sincerely hope we can help you find a wonderful new family member. Choosing a puppy is a big decision, and we believe it’s essential for families to be well informed about both the breed and the individual puppy’s temperament before bringing one home. While welcoming a puppy is an exciting experience, understanding what to expect is the key to a successful, lifelong relationship. We do not breed for specific coat colors, eye colors, or markings. Instead, we believe the most important factor in choosing the right puppy is a temperament that complements your home, family, yard, and any other pets. Our puppies are placed as family companions only in approved homes. If you are purchasing a pet puppy, you will be required to sign a contract agreeing that the dog will be spayed or neutered and not used for breeding purposes. We are committed to placing our puppies in loving homes with families who are knowledgeable about the breed and prepared for the 12–15 year commitment of dog ownership. To help us match you with the best possible puppy, please complete our puppy application and provide as much information as possible. Thank you—we look forward to learning more about you!

All of our puppies will be up to date on age-appropriate vaccinations and deworming at the time they go home. Each puppy will have a complete veterinary examination and a health certificate from a licensed veterinarian. You will receive a puppy folder that includes information about your puppy’s breed, along with complete veterinary records for your reference. For added peace of mind, all of our puppies are covered by a one-year health guarantee.

If you are located within a reasonable driving distance of Staples, Minnesota, I would be happy to meet you in person to deliver your puppy. For families outside the area, shipping is available. Pet cargo shipping costs typically range between $350–$450, depending on the puppy’s size and age. A pet nanny service is also available. Pricing for this option varies based on airline ticket costs and the length of travel required to deliver your puppy. Please note that airline size and age requirements apply and may affect the final cost.

Your puppy will be provided with a brand-new puppy carrier lined with absorbent material to ensure comfort during travel, along with a small food and water dish. All pet carriers used are airline-approved kennels. We will also coordinate all travel and delivery times with you to ensure a smooth and stress-free experience.

Pricing will vary based on eye color, markings, size, coat color, overall appearance, conformation, bloodlines, and AKC registration status.
