“THE ADOPTION PROCESS”

Here’s a description of the process we use to choose our puppies. If you have any questions you are welcome to call me (Edna) @ 217-273-2980 or e-mail me at ednaherschberger@gmail.com.

We accept 500.00 deposits on any of our present or upcoming litters. You will get to choose your puppy in the order that you gave your deposit. We will put you on our waitlist for the size and color puppy that you prefer. (F1 Standards, F1 Minis or F1b Tiny’s) We will also need to know what date works best for you to get a puppy.

We will keep you up-to-date on when the puppies are born, and we will contact you to schedule a time for you to choose your puppy. We would love to have you come visit when it’s your time to choose your precious puppy. If that’s not a possibility for you, we will send you pictures and videos and also FaceTime with you to help you decide which puppy is the best fit for you.

We will be posting individual pictures of the puppies on our website when they are a few days old, then when they are 2 weeks old, 4 weeks old and also when they are 6 weeks old.

You are welcome to choose your puppy at 2 weeks old but generally people like to wait until their puppy is 4 or 5 weeks old. We have learned that the puppy’s personality is more developed at this age.

Our puppies will all be micro-chipped, up-to-date on vaccines and dewormed, have a health certificate, a 2-year health guarantee, their vaccination schedule, be eligible to be registered and have their dew claws removed. Each puppy will come with a toy, a collar and a leash. They will also come with a blankie that has their mother’s scent on it to help them feel comfortable in their new home.

We don’t have an application for you to fill out, but we appreciate it when people give us a brief description of their family & home. We love to have an idea where our puppies will be living.

Thank You, Willard & Edna
