PUPPY PURCHASE & MATCHING PROCESS

Puppy Cost:

$2,500

Deposit:

$500

(goes toward total puppy price)

Once a litter arrives, each puppy is aptitude tested for:

• Drive

• Nerve strength

• Social temperament

• Environmental confidence

• Trainability

• Handler compatibility

I personally match each client with the puppy that best fits their needs, lifestyle, and future goals (family protection, service work, active family home, etc.).

Once matched, you will be contacted with your puppy’s profile and temperament notes.

Puppies begin training at 8–9 weeks of age and immediately start foundational work.
