Pick up in person or arrange safe transport through an approved flight nanny.

Common Questions Before You Reach Out
The first step is completing our Adoption Application. This allows us to learn more about your lifestyle and ensure our puppies are placed in thoughtful, well-prepared homes. Approved applicants will be contacted with next steps.
We respond to inquiries within 24–48 hours. During busy times or when litters are active, responses may take slightly longer.
Yes, we can assist with safe, responsible travel arrangements when needed. Details are discussed individually after application approval.
Absolutely. General questions are welcome at any time. However, an application is required to be considered for adoption.
Pricing information is typically shared with approved applicants. This ensures that every conversation is meaningful and aligned with our adoption standards. General pricing ranges may be discussed once your application has been reviewed.
In-person visits are offered selectively and by appointment only, typically after an application has been approved. This helps us maintain a calm, healthy environment for our puppies and ensures meaningful, one-on-one interactions.
