Getting a puppy from Chelsea
Chelsea has been certified by Good Dog’s screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices. When you’re ready, reach out to ask about the puppies or anything else on your mind. You’ll get to know each other through messaging, phone, or video and pay securely, all on Good Dog.
Chelsea partners with buyers to find the best match as the puppies develop and their personalities take shape. Typically, matches are finalized when the puppies reach about 8 weeks old.
“Puppies are matched by us to their future homes after temperament and structural evaluations take place at 8 weeks of age. We take into consideration families' sex, color, and temperament preferences. Prospective show puppies may be held back for several additional weeks as we make our own selections for keeper puppies.”
Price
“The price includes AKC registration, early socialization protocols, first rounds of vaccinations and dewormer, microchipping, and a puppy go-home bag. Once a pregnancy is confirmed and we have a tentative puppy count via x-ray we will begin taking deposits to approved homes to reserve a puppy.”
