Updates, Application, Deposit/Adoption Fee, Recommendations, Sample Contract, and Waiting List

Update (s):
10-3-26 Liberty should come into season in the next few weeks.
9-26-26 Families began visiting 2 weeks ago and will continue for the next few weeks if they would like to. On October 10, families will choose their puppy and they will go home after their first vaccine October 13 through the 17. Many prior updates have been removed.

Adoption Fee:
The adoption fee is $2,900 (plus Washington State Sales Tax) less a $500 deposit (sent with the questionnaire below), that has families making their puppy pick at 7 weeks and the puppies go home on the 8th week. Zelle is available for any payment to the phone number below.

Time Frame and Deposits Submitted:
Typically there are 5-10 puppies in a litter. The families shown below will be choosing based on the date of their deposit. Once a deposit is placed, the owner has the option of the current litter, or to wait for the next litter. (If identified, their preference of sex, size and coloring is shown and this helps us choose the appropriate sire.)
1. Shannon and Paul - Male - Tri - 45#
2. Navaneeth - Male - Tri - # not mentioned
3. Dorian and Kyle - Female - Any Color - 25#
4. Chris and Carolyn - Male - Tri - 45-55#
5. Brian and Family - Female - Tri - 25-40#
6. Min and Family - Male - Tri - 40#
7. Chance and Sarah - Female - Tri - 25-35#
8. Anne - Male - Any - 40#
9. Melissa, Bradon and Family - Either - Any - 35#+
10. Marian and Max - Female - Bi/Sable - 30-45#
11. Heidi and Corey Coffman - Either - Tri/Any - 35-40#
12. Mario and Catrina - Tri - Male - 40-55#

Managing the List:
In the event a litter is larger than anticipated, or if a family needs to rollover, those lower on the list will be contacted to determine their interest. If someone does rollover, they will be placed on the list numerically, based on the date of their deposit and in the next litter they must choose a pup or forfeit their deposit. If anyone can think of something more fair, please advise.

Visiting Processes:
Before puppies are born, prospective owners may come to the house and meet us, see where the pups will be raised, and ask any questions. We are in Burien in the Seahurst neighborhood. Prior to a family making the selection of their pup on the 7th week, they may start visiting them at 4 weeks and weekly thereafter. After the puppies go home and since they should not be around other dogs until they are fully vaccinated, we offer playdays every two weeks until they are 4 months old. This gives the owners a chance to talk and the puppies to play in a safe enviroment. Annually, (in the summertime) there is a reunion that families are welcomed to come back for.

We thought this was funny...There is a series of 3 photos that we put in a loop. Notice the basket getting further away from the wall then a puppy coming up the back bumps her off.
