If you are considering
purchasing a puppy from us, you have the following three
options available to you. Please take the time to
read about our polices. These policies describe
how we work with our customers to ensure that everyone is treated fairly.
Option #1
Purchase a puppy that
is currently posted on our web site. If we do not have
puppies posted, or you are looking for a different size,
sex, or color go to Option #2.
Option #2
(Email Notification List)
Send an email message
to
puppies@adorablepoodles.net and ask to be added to
our Email Notification List. We will notify you each
time we post new puppies on our website. This option
has advantages and disadvantages.
Advantages:
·
There is no
commitment.
·
You can
view pictures of our puppies as they become available.
Disadvantages:
·
Not all
puppies are posted on our website. Some puppies are
sold to families that are on our Waiting List. (see
Option #3)
·
We have no
way of knowing how long a puppy will be available once
posted. Sometimes our puppies sell before we have a
chance to send out all of our Email Notifications, or
before you have a chance to read your Email
Notification.
·
Many times
there are several families that are interested in the
same puppy.
Option #3 (Waiting List)
If you want a puppy
that is of a specific size, sex, or color ask to be on
our Waiting List. To be on our Waiting List, we require
a $250 deposit that is applied towards the purchase
price of a puppy. There are advantages and
disadvantages to this option.
Advantages:
·
You receive
priority. We work with you to identify the type of
puppy you want.
·
If you are
considering both sexes (male & female), or you have
several colors or sizes that you are interested in, one
deposit, of $250, will put you on our Waiting List for
all of your choices.
·
When a
puppy is 8-12 weeks old (depending on how small they
are), we will evaluate the puppy for adult size, price
the puppy, and take pictures of the puppy. Please do
not ask us to take pictures prior to the puppy being
evaluated.
·
After a
puppy has been evaluated and we have determined that a
puppy meets your specifications (size, sex, and color),
we will notify you based on where you are on the Waiting
List.
·
Once you
are notified that a puppy has been evaluated and matches
your specifications, we will email you pictures of the
puppy and the puppy’s evaluation. Since we cannot hold
puppies for an unlimited amount of time, you will have
48 hours to make a final decision. If we do not receive
your decision within 48 hours, the puppy will be offered
to the next person on our Waiting List or posted on our
website as an available puppy. If you decide that you
want the puppy, you can choose to have the puppy held
for you by making a second deposit of $250 which is
applied towards the purchase price of the puppy, or wait
for another puppy to be born. Final payment is not due
until the puppy is picked up or until arrangements have
been made for shipping.
·
If you live
locally, or within driving distance and want to see the
puppy in person prior to making a final decision, you
are welcome to come to our home. If you are not able to
come to our home when the puppy is ready to go to its
new home and you cannot make a final decision until you
see the puppy, the puppy will be offered to the next
family on our Waiting List, or posted on our website as
an available puppy. You will not lose your spot on our
Waiting List, but you will need to wait until the next
puppy is born.
Disadvantages:
·
Deposits
are non-refundable. Deposits can only be applied
towards the next available puppy. This is the only way
that we can ensure that we are working with a family
that is serious about adding a new bundle of joy to
their life.
Other:
·
Our puppies
receive their first vaccine when they are 7 weeks old.
As a result, our puppies are not allowed personal visits
until they are at least 8 weeks of age. There are
absolutely no exceptions - please do not ask!
·
We will not
hold a puppy longer than 2 weeks past the date that they
are ready to go to their new home. If you need us to
hold the puppy past the date that they are ready to go
to their new home, the puppy must be paid for in full.
·
Please do
not ask us to take pictures prior to the puppy being
evaluated.
·
If you
pick-up your puppy at our home, final payment must be
made with cash, checks are not accepted. A list of
payment options are listed on our website. Click on the
tab titled “Prices and Payment.”
