“The price includes the guarantee, AKC registration, first round of vaccinations. de worming and puppy socialization. Note that deposits are not refundable. Please be sure you are moving forward with the purchase before placing the deposit. We consider any puppy that does not have a deposit paid to be available for any other inquiring people. When a puppy is held for someone it ages, and if the buyer changes their mind on purchase, it may cause the puppy's chance of going to a good home at an early age to be lowered, and time is simply lost.”

The entire experience was amazing. Gary and his wife are the nicest people. They kept us updated, drove the puppy to us and gave us every piece of paper work on the puppy. The whole experience was incredible. My mom is in love with her baby. The puppy has the sweetest personality!!! We can’t thank them enough !!!
