Getting a puppy from Michelle
Michelle 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, Michelle partners with them to find the best puppy match.
“We may ask you about your life and speak with you over video chat. Often times we find that we see little personality traits in the puppies that only we can see because we are around them all the time and will suggest the best puppy to fit you. We know our puppies better than anyone else and want you to have the best adoption prosses possible. You should never buy a puppy just because of looks, personality and compatibility is very important. ”
Price
“The price includes a health certificate, first set of shots, a microchip, and a go home bag. All Deposit funds go to the health and care of the puppies. We often times save it for emergencies this is why we don't do refunds. You may switch to another puppy once or wait for another litter.”
Contract & health guarantee
Michelle 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 Michelle 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 Michelle directly.
