How we assign our litters:

Puppy choice is made at 6 weeks, in order of the deposits we have received.  This gives other waiting families the opportunity to choose their pup, and come visit with them in the weeks prior to go home.  Pups go home at 8 weeks, after they have been vet checked, vet vaccinated and microchipped. We charge $125.00 per week to hold your pup longer than 8 weeks, and will not hold the pup beyond 10 weeks. This is the only fair and equitable way we've found to accomodate the varying needs of our adoptive families.  Between 6 and 8 weeks, we encourage our nearby families to come bond with their puppy to make the transition to their new home a bit easier. 

Flying a Pup:  We prefer not to fly pups to their home.  However, in some cases there is little choice.  The only airline we are comfortable with is Pet Airways, where pets fly in the main cabin, with a pet attendant.  Pups are not flown as cargo.  It is just over 8 hours to use this airline (the closest hub to us is Chicago)  and the flights are very limited so it requires us to take the day off work.   Because of this,  we do charge a  200.00 fee.  You are also responsible for the flight fee.   In some cases it may be easier or cheaper for you to fly in and take your pup home with you!
