5. Are the tails and dewclaws done on your puppies before they go to new homes? What if I'd rather have a long tail on my puppy?
Yes. If you would prefer your puppy to have a natural (long) tail, I need to receive your deposit before the puppy is three days old. Tails and dewclaws are done when puppies are 3-4 days old, depending on their size. If your situation changes or you can't take the puppy for any reason, your deposit is non-refundable.

7. Do you keep a waiting list?
I make every effort to, but it would be best for you to mark your calendar for the due date of the litter in which you're interested. Check my website, call, or email me.

8. Will you hold a certain puppy for me if I ask you to?
The deposit amounts are $250. for a merle puppy and $100. for any other color.

9. If I buy a puppy from you and require shipping, who makes those arrangements?
You should make the initial airline inquiries, before sending a deposit on a puppy. The pet shipping department phone numbers are listed on the Shipping page. Checking an airline's website for flight information won't do you any good because not all planes are equiped to carry live animals. When we've established there is a flight that is acceptable to both of us, you may send your deposit. When it's closer to the time the puppy will be ready to go, I will make the flight reservation, and email you the confirmation number.

10. What is the average gestation period for a dog?
Nine weeks, plus or minus several days. The expected delivery dates I post on my homepage are based on 63 days from the day of the first breeding (I breed twice during a heat cycle.)
