Getting a puppy from Julie

Julie 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.

After buyers complete the application and screening process, Julie partners with them to find the best puppy match.

“Choosing where a puppy belongs is one of the most important parts of what we do—and it’s never left to chance. Every family goes through a thoughtful screening process, including detailed conversations and reference checks, so we can truly understand your lifestyle, experience, and what you’re hoping for in a companion. From there, we take great care in evaluating each puppy’s temperament, personality, and natural tendencies as they grow. Rather than choosing based on looks alone, we carefully match each puppy to the home where they will thrive. Our goal is simple but deeply meaningful: to place every puppy in the right arms, the right home, and the right life—creating a lifelong bond that feels as natural as it is extraordinary. 🐾”

Price

Puppy prices include a $550 non-refundable deposit and between $2,950 - $4,950 final payment, before taxes & fees.
Pay over time with Klarna.

“Final pricing is set after birth, based on litter size, vet costs, and stud fee. Deposits are non-refundable once a puppy is offered but may transfer to a future litter if declined. To reserve a puppy, a $500 deposit is required and valid for one year. It’s refundable only if your preferred sex isn’t available. Placement decisions remain at our discretion.”

Contract & health guarantee

Julie may provide a written contract or health guarantee when you purchase a puppy. This helps protect both you and your breeder, ensuring that you both have a clear understanding of the terms of your puppy purchase. If Julie offers a contract or guarantee, the details will be personalized by them. If you have any questions or want to know more, don't hesitate to reach out to Julie directly.

All contracts are handled securely through Good Dog.
