Steps to adopting a puppy from us.

Adoption fee from our Hobby Kennel.
Ok, so you've made it this far, Great!
All Puppies will be seen by a Vet and have first shots and 3-4 deworming's and microchip.
All have parents with phenomenal health certifications to minimize the chance of defects/disease.

All genders and colors and just as loveable as the next. None are more valuable than the other. All take the same amount of time to raise and find the best homes for, I don't assign different adoption fees for different colors or genders, but I do have different adoption fees for Champion sired babies, or show babies.
Our adoption fees include:
Your puppy that will come spayed or neutered, plus a wonderful care package including, leash, collar, grooming brush, grooming rake, 3 toys, puppy care information. sample food, microchip , and custom tote to put your goodies in, and possibly more! : D (Please bring a crate with you if picking up that is not provided)

$850 for all except champion sired puppy they are between $1000-1500, $1500 being show qualty, show home and not spayed or neutered.
( So what is your value? Quite a lot considering all we have put into our furkids and all we do here. Your puppy alone is 'worth' at least $1500 with all the health testing we do here, if you do minimal research you will find out very quickly. I have seen poorly bred (backy yard bred/puppymill puppies priced higher than mine and its a shame) the savings in potential problems is priceless. the spay or neuter is included, they do very very well when spayed young. They would be able to go home at 8 weeks as normal. the actual cost of the procedure is $110 with my vet and that includes all meds after surgery, and they don't have to stay overnight as I am a certified vet asst/vet tech student and they come home with me for me to watch them. They act as though nothing has happened. I have parents calling on the day of surgery watching the cameras asking if they had surgery because they are watching the babies running around "like normal." Its a benefit to them first, and a definate benefit to you too.
SHIPPING:
ABSOLUTELY NO INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING DO NOT EVEN ASK ME.
is something I don't like to do but can if you are more than 8 hours from me. shipping is dependendant on the airlines at the time, currently end of 2010 the going shipping price is $350. You can add that to cost of whichever puppy you have or will chose. Meeting you halfway at a fee is also an option, but we prefer for you to come here to meet us and take your baby home.
DEPOSITS
Once you have been chosen as a puppy parent and you have picked your puppy I will send you an email containing the information to put on your contract and deposit (after they are at least 1 week old and no later than 2 weeks after chosing a puppy or it will be made available to someone who takes the process a bit more seriously. Send the notarized contract in duplicate( or I can give you fax information) and mail the deposit at the same time.
You can also send me a deposit via paypal, but do not do this until I give you the email address to send it to.
Deposits are $200.
PAYMENT PLANS are an option.
We can work out payment plans with you. If you really want one of our babies and know you'll be a good mom. Don't hesitate because of price, call us.

I frequently get asked why I require spaying or neutering, its a very easy question to answer. Because 3000 + or - chows are put to sleep everyday because breeding takes more than sperm and eggs. Not everyone has what it takes to be a breeder, some don't even have what it takes to be a puppy parent. It takes a great deal of knowledge, and backbone is required too. It takes money to raise them, resources to know how to whelp, when to give shots, and deworming, not to mention an overall deep passion, knowledge about the breed, commitment to health testing, commitment to the puppies you produce to protect them, not just at birth, but to check up on them for the rest of thier lives. You need to know how to train the puppy parents so they in turn can train their puppies. Its a lot of work.
SHOW PUPPIES DO NOT HAVE TO BE SPAYED OR NEUTERED BUT I WILL CO OWN TILL YOU OFA AND PUT A TITLE ON YOUR DOG OR BITCH AND THEN I WILL SIGN OFF ACCORDING TO THE CONTRACT.
