Price

Puppy prices include a $100 non-refundable deposit and between $1,100 - $1,700 final payment, before taxes & fees.

“Price is determined by the parent's standard or champion bloodline. Sometimes it is due to unique color such as liver, red or white, blue or lavender. This deposit is applied to the final price of the puppy. This puts you on our serious list and in line to get a male or female from our available litters or upcoming litters. Once you choose your puppy i require $200 to hold that puppy for you. The final balance is due when you take the puppy home. Please contact me directly 402-366-9242 regarding what I have before sending a deposit. Thanks.”
