| Puppy Information |
| Buying a puppy is very exciting. We try our best to place each puppy in the right home which is why we have a certain procedure of selling puppies. Please take a minute to call us at 205-669-7379 or fill out our questionnaire. Please understand that our questions and requirements are to insure that our puppies are really, truly wanted by their buyers and are geared toward keeping them both safe, healthy and happy! BUYING A CORALIS PUPPY A deposit of HALF the purchase price and a signed contract is required to reserve a puppy from our current or expected litters. Deposits are taken now and until all puppies have been placed. To reserve a puppy that is over 6 weeks of age, payment in full is required. Reservations are recommended as our puppies are usually spoken for as soon as they arrive! NO puppies can be held without a deposit. Deposits are NON-REFUNDABLE. However, deposits WILL be refunded if no puppies are produced. Deposits WILL be refunded if there are not enough puppies in the litter to satisfy reservations, unless you'd like to apply it toward the next litter. Basically if we can't provide you with a puppy, your deposit is refunded. These are the ONLY circumstances deposits will be refunded. All balances are due when puppies are 6 weeks of age. No puppy/dog can leave if a balance is owed. We are sorry, but we do not accept out of state personal checks. We do accept credit/debit cards through PayPal with an additional 4%. We do ship/deliver puppies, weather permitting, if buyer cannot come and pick up the puppy/dog. We charge $25 to get the puppy to the airport to cover the cost of gas. If we are delivering the puppy/dog to the buyer (not being shipped by air) we charge $0.50 per mile round trip. If shipping by air, buyer is responsible for shipping fees, crate, and the fee for the health certificate from the vet that is required for air travel. We ship from Birmingham International Airport, in Birmingham, AL. PICKING YOUR PUPPY Please remember puppies are not made to order, we get what mother nature gives us. All of our puppies are raised in our home with our family. Each one is cared for, loved and socialized from the day they are born. We do our best to see that each puppy is going to the right home When puppies are born, everyone on the waiting list will be notified and links to pictures will be posted on our "litter" page of our website. New pics will be added as quickly as I can take them (usually weekly). TO PROTECT THEIR HEALTH, WE DON'T LET ANYONE VISIT THE PUPPIES UNTIL AFTER THEY RECEIVE THEIR FIRST SHOTS AT 6 WEEKS OF AGE. SHOW/BREEDING QUALITY PUPPIES When we sell a show/breeding prospect, we guarantee that the puppy meets the requirements of the breed standard, is free of disqualifying faults, is a good example of the breed and is eligible to compete in AKC (and ASCA if applicable) shows. We do not guarantee the puppy will win in any shows or finish a championship title. We do not sell show/breeding quality puppies for breeding only. If you want a puppy to breed in the future, you need to be able to agree to a co-ownership for a certain period of time, commit to showing that puppy and perform the proper health clearances before breeding will be permitted. PET/COMPANION PUPPIES Pet/Performance puppies are sold on spay/neuter agreements with limited registration papers. They are eligible to perform and compete in agility, rally, fly ball, obedience, ect.... Proof from vet of spay/neuter is required by 9 months of age. Registration papers are held by breeder until proof is provided. NO EXCEPTIONS WILL BE MADE. All puppies are guaranteed against genetic defect/disease such as hip/elbow dysplasia, epilepsy and hereditary eye defects until 4 years of age. REMEMBER - Buying a puppy is a lifetime commitment to that puppy. Aussies can live upwards of 15 years, some even longer!
