Important:

Submitting an application does not guarantee a puppy. Approved applicants may be invited to join our waitlist or offered a puppy based on availability, timing, and compatibility.

What Happens After You Apply

Once your application is submitted, we review it carefully and take time to understand whether one of our future puppies may be the right fit for your family.

Application Review

We review your form to learn about your household, lifestyle, goals, and what kind of puppy may suit you best.

Follow-Up Contact

We may reach out with follow-up questions, confirm availability, or discuss whether a current or future litter is the best fit.

Waitlist or Placement Offer

Approved families may be invited to join our waitlist or may be offered a puppy depending on timing, litter availability, and compatibility.

Next Steps & Preparation

We guide you through deposit, timeline, pickup or delivery planning, and what to prepare before bringing your puppy home.

Waitlist & Reservation

Not every approved applicant receives an immediate puppy offer. In many cases, approved families are invited to join our waitlist for an upcoming litter.

Our waitlist system allows us to place each puppy thoughtfully and make the best possible match between puppy and family.

Deposit Reminder

If a puppy or placement is offered, we currently require a 65% deposit to reserve that placement.

Our deposit policy is 95% refundable under approved terms, and approved deposits may also be transferred to a future litter, held as credit, or gifted as credit.
