REASON FOR RESERVING BY MAKING A DEPOSIT
Deposits help breeders keep track of how many puppies from a litter are spoken for and, in a show of intent; they indicate the buyer’s seriousness and commitment to getting a puppy. Similarly, by accepting this good faith deposit, a breeder indicates their approval of the buyer as an acceptable home and their commitment to that buyer to provide a puppy. Deposits are a two way street as they bind and protect both buyer and seller. The breeder agrees not to sell the puppy to anyone else or to take other reservations for that special puppy from a particular litter. The buyer promises to purchase the puppy from the breeder and not to go to anyone else for a puppy in the mean time. If all goes as planned, the buyers get their adorable new puppy and the breeder has the satisfaction of a job well done and a puppy carefully and lovingly placed in a wonderful home.

FYI - HOW MUCH FOR A PUPPY?
Today I had one call, one email and two text messages asking for Christmas puppies, and this was the question from all four.
HOW MUCH FOR A PUPPY?
Allow me to say a few words to those who write an email or text a message or call to simply ask for a price without reading the information on the website. I also address this to those who surprisingly state:
“…for ‘just a dog’? I can buy a cheaper dog elsewhere”.
Well, behind every pure bred dog is a responsible BREEDER. I’m using capital letters to differentiate a breeder from a pet factory that say they have puppies available all year for any type of individuals. When you choose to buy a dog from a breeder, this breeder is responsible for the well being of every dog in their care. From the parents they own, to the newborns that are sold. This responsible breeder will skip holidays, sleep, social gathering, vacations, dinner outings... and for most, their own home space will be turned into space for their dogs that live inside the home with these breeders and not in a barn or outdoor kennels. These breeders are truly passionate breeders. They love what they breed and put their whole heart into it. Not only in the puppies that are sold but also their hearts ache for those who get sick and those who die.
A breeder will get their hands dirty, often covered in placentas, sometimes blood, poop and even mud. Because that’s one aspect of what breeding is about. A responsible breeder will do progesterone tests, echos, ultrasound, xrays, analysis, c sections, vaccinations, research pedigrees, deworm, cytology test, and even getting them evaluated by specialists. A responsible breeder will also do daily monitoring, constant cleaning, caring, interacting, nurturing, and loving their puppies to build a stable foundation for a life time; and that’s without mentioning the long list of supplies, including medical supplies, nutrition, utilities, special housing and accommodation needed to maintain and produce quality puppies.
Last but not least; a responsible breeder CHOOSES the family lucky enough to have one of their puppies. Yes, you read that right. A truly responsible breeder chooses who they sell to. And those that are chosen not only become a lifelong extension of this breeder’s love and care to their puppies, but they also understand and appreciate what a breeder is all about.
This is why, it is not “just a dog”.
