HOW PICKING ORDER IS HANDLED

 

 In most cases picks are conducted exclusively according to date of deposit received. Picks are not specific to color, gender, or litter. On our deposit forms we do ask you to note these preferences, but this is for ours and your own reference only. When it is your turn to pick you may choose from all available pups from all litters available at the time.

NOTE: Breeder always reserves the right to determine a certain choice is unavailable if a specific reason exists unique to a given situation.

 

 Otherwise:

 

 WHEN THERE IS A BREEDER'S PICK:

 

 Picks will not be made until the pups are at least 8 weeks old in order to allow the pups to reach the age when they can be properly screened for health. There are certain things that a breeder must consider when picking a pup that a pet owner does not have to worry about, both regarding conformation and health, for example: When choosing a pup for show certain attributes may be desired by a breeder that wouldn't matter to a pet owner, and when it comes to health, there are certain conditions which would be considered compromising to a specific pup or to it's litters, the result being a risk to a breeder but not to a pet owner, who is not going to be reproducing the breed.

 

 

 WHEN THERE IS NOT A BREEDER'S PICK:

 

 Pick's can be made once the pups are born in order of deposits received whenever the 1st depositor feels ready. Picks can be determined via photos, videos, and email descriptions, or in person at our home.

NOTE: Health screens are still conducted at 8 weeks and if any concerns come up for your pup they will be fully disclosed to you.
