FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q: How does the adoption process work?
A: If you see a puppy listed on our website that you are interested in, simply contact us by phone, text or email. We take deposits through check or Venmo. If the puppy is older than 6 weeks, you can come visit. Before 6 weeks we can FaceTime only because puppies have not had their first shots and are very susceptible to various conditions brought in by visitors.
​
Q: At what age can I pick up my new puppy?
A: The very earliest a puppy can go to its new home is 8 weeks old. Sometimes 10 weeks is better as puppy is such a young baby at 8 weeks and may need another week or two before it is ready to transition to its new home. We will determine the best time for each individual puppy.
​

A: We remove dew claws in the first week of life.
