Our Story
Forewarning: Our puppies come pre-spoiled!
Price of puppy includes but is not limited to:
* Your puppy!
* First veterinary exam
This will include any necessary cropping of tails, a thorough puppy exam and any health certificates required for crossing state lines.
* First two rounds of vaccinations
The first set given is a 5-way, the second set is a 7-way. At your first scheduled exam at 12 weeks, your puppy should receive a second 7-way vaccine and a rabies. This is a great time to discuss spay/neuter options with your vet! Please research this thoroughly, as early spay/neuter has its own set of repercussions that you must make yourself aware of. I have resources on hand!
* Current dewormer
Given in 2-week intervals beginning at 2 weeks of age - Pyrantel for the first 3 rounds, and a 3-day daily dose of Fenbendazole for the 4th round.
* Beginning potty training
The puppy area will be divided into three places: eating, sleeping/playing, and bathroom. Your puppy will begin learning where to relieve themselves at around 3 weeks. They are highly capable of being potty trained by 16-20 weeks of age with a steady program and schedule. We encourage crate training, and do use litter boxes. Ask me about this wonderful method!
* A new puppy kit
This kit includes all medical records, fresh trip to the groomer for a bath and nail trim, small bag of feed your puppy is currently eating, and valuable coupons. At your request, R4C will provide a training and care guide, breed-specific information, training help, emergency contact, any pedigree information, a stainless steel bowl, KONG chew toy, rope chew toy, and a ball. Your puppy will come to you wearing a new collar matching the color ribbon s/he wore. If puppy is being shipped or transported, the transport kit will include a shipping crate per airline/shipping requirements, a water bottle, and all applicable documentation.
An upgraded kit will include the above, plus microchipping, a crate, crate mat, crate-fitted water bottle, a premium collar with matching lead, a clicker for training, duck jerky treats, and an upgraded trip to the groomer to include specialty products and spa treatment.
* LIFETIME genetic health guarantee for replacement of returned puppy when confirmed diagnosis of genetic disorder is determined by a licensed veterinarian, and second opinion obtained by veterinarian of the discretion of R4C.
All you gotta do is fill out our puppy purchase application, agree to and fulfill our contract terms and send your deposit!
Your non-refundable deposit will hold your place in line for choice of puppy!
Deposits are 1/2 full price of the puppy, due at signing. This will guarantee your place in line and once we’ve helped you pick out the best puppy for you, this deposit will hold that puppy until 8 or 10 weeks of age, determined on a per-puppy basis. Payment arrangements are fine with a post-dated check, but puppies on payment arrangements must have funds received and be paid in full BEFORE 8 weeks of age or your full deposit forfeited and puppy is placed back up for selection.
All puppies stay with mother until at least 8 weeks of age, though some I may require stay until 10 weeks. There are absolutely no exceptions to my determination.
If your puppy is transported (Driven) or shipped (Flown) your puppy will not leave until 10 weeks of age per airline regulations and more importantly, puppy's safety and comfort. I would prefer puppies fly attended. I will not ship puppies as cargo.
Our puppies are well-socialized. We have children, cats, other dogs, horses, goats, free-range chickens and bunnies. As well, they are raised as a member of our family, NOT in a kennel setting, and NOT in a pen out behind a shed. They travel with us, and you can trust that s/he will be taking trips to parks, walking trails, ball games, parades, and playgrounds when allowed. S/he will be exposed to as many different scenarios as we can expect one to come into contact with within the first six months. Our property is on a highway, less than a mile from a shooting range, and we make sure to instill proper manners and social skills from the very beginning. This means too, your puppy will be started on leash training, sit, down, come, wait, focus. We teach them on a “Learn to Earn” basis! We do highly recommend a puppy obedience class, or Puppy Kindergarten to establish the proper methods for working with your new puppy!
