MUSH-PUPPIES

Process For Getting A Puppy:

If you are interested in a puppy, please submit an application under the Puppy Application tab.

1. The earliest news about pending or current litters is posted on our website, www.mush-puppies.com and Puppy Find at www.puppyfind.com. Available puppies will be listed under the “Available Puppies” tab and the reserved puppies will be posted under the “Reserved Puppies” tab at www.mush-puppies.com. 
2. Fill out an application under the “Puppy Application” tab on our website, www.mush-puppies.com.
3. Once your application is received and reviewed, you will be sent an email for approval.
4. Submit your deposit under the “Payment” tab on our website, www.mush-puppies.com.
5. Your deposit will hold the puppy of your choice on current litter(s) or your first choice on pending litter(s). If first choice is not available and you list a second choice, then second choice will be held for you. Deposit of $200 is nonrefundable, but may be transferred to a future litter under certain circumstances.
6. Once puppies are reserved, weekly updates will be sent to the new families.
7. Balance of payment and shipping (if applicable): Balance of payment is due when puppy is 6 weeks of age.
8. Shipping is $350.00 to anywhere in the 48 contiguous United States. (Alaska and Canada require a custom quote and we may not be able to ship there depending on particulars.) Shipping can be paid anytime, but must be paid NO LATER THAN 4 days prior to arranged flight date. Failure to pay on time will delay finalization arrangements and incur additional vet and shipping costs. (No checks for this payment as it does not allow sufficient time for clearance. Please allow plenty of lead time if mailing a Money Order. Online payments are acceptable up to this 4 day window.) 
9. At 7 weeks of age, puppies will go the vet for their final check up, first set of puppy vaccinations, worming and health certificate (if applicable). Your puppy will also be microchipped at this time.
10. At 8 weeks of age puppies are ready for their new homes. Flights are usually scheduled for Saturdays with our preferred airline. But we may use another airline depending on flight availability. We will try to get the shortest and most direct flight for your puppy, to minimize travel time. You will usually pick up your new puppy at the cargo terminal or inside the main terminal at the baggage service desk. I will email you pick up location and you will receive updated emails throughout your puppy’s flight.
11. Additional fees of $35 per week are charged if you can’t take receipt of the puppy at the agreed upon litter departure date (normally the first Saturday after the puppy is eight weeks of age). (This is for additional vet visits and care.)
12. If your situation changes to the extent that you are no longer able to provide for the puppy or dog you purchased from us, please let us know.
