Puppy Deposit

When a litter is born we take a deposit to hold your puppy until 9 weeks of age. 
Once a deposit is received, it is non refundable as a puppy has been reserved for you. If you decide you don't want the puppy, or you get a puppy from another breeder, the deposit will not be returned. Deposits are only returned if we cannot offer you a puppy, i.e. there are not enough puppies in the litter. If you have any question about our deposit policy, please ask before you send a deposit.  The deposit amount is half of purchase price with remaining balance due at puppy pick up and to be paid in cash. 

I agree to the above conditions:
