Applying for a puppy

Apply for a puppy by answering a few questions so Joni can get to know you.
A$4,000 - A$6,000

Once we have read applications & find a suitable family, we will offer a FaceTime call. From there we answer any questions families may have, ask any questions we have of the family & share our processes, show them our set up, adult dogs & the puppies. If we are happy with everything, we offer the puppy & wait for acceptance before sending a contract & taking a deposit for puppy. Once a deposit is paid to secure a puppy, we offer a puppy visit for families who are close by to us. We are happy to do multiple visits if a puppy is secured early on 🩵
