Puppy Policy
To protect our dogs and the puppies we breed, we enforce a puppy policy that every client must follow in order to receive a puppy from Windy Hills Farm. If you are interested in purchasing a puppy from our current or future litter you will need to complete a puppy application. We will review your application and get back to you as soon as possible.
Purchasing Your Puppy
Upon your agreement to purchase a puppy from us, you must make a non-refundable deposit for your puppy. The remaining balance for your puppy is paid after your puppy visit day, unless prior arrangements have been made. Shipping is available worldwide (excluding Asia) at the buyers’ cost. All travel arrangements are made by Windy Hills Farm. Additional costs will be billed with final payment at least 2 weeks prior to the date of travel. Please contact us for more information.
Visiting Your Puppy
We are aware you will be anxious to meet your newest family member, but due to cross contamination and possible illnesses, WE DO NOT ACCEPT ANY VISITORS to our property during the pregnancy and prior to the puppies receiving their first immunizations at 6 weeks. We only allow clients who have made a deposit and reserved a puppy to visit when puppies are over 6 weeks of age. During your puppy visit you and your family can meet, play and interact with your newest family member. We also understand many of our clients may currently have other pets and are anxious to watch their newest family addition meet and interact with their new puppy; However, to protect the health of our pets and vulnerable puppies we do not allow any client pets on our property.
Taking Your Puppy Home
Puppies can leave for their new homes at eight weeks. You will sign a puppy contract and receive a packet with information on how to care for your newest family member. If you are unable to pick up your puppy at eight weeks, we can discuss boarding the pup for additional time.
Health & Socialization
Puppies are given their first puppy vaccinations at 6 weeks of age. Each puppy receives a 5-way vaccine which includes adenovirus, hepatitis, distemper, parainfluenza and parvovirus, We also de-worm at 6 weeks of age with Safeguard. Feeding, future immunizations and de-worming information is given when you pick up your puppy. There is no implied or expressed health warranty or guarantee on our puppies. We begin paper training and basic obedience before our puppies leave for their new home and each puppy is socialized since birth with children and other dogs daily.
AKC Registration
Every puppy is sold with an AKC limited registration. You must discuss with us prior to selecting and reserving your puppy if you are interested in AKC full registration. You will be required to agree to our terms and additional fee to receive AKC full registration. All clients are required to register your puppy with AKC after you receive your registration papers. AKC will charge you a nominal fee when registering your puppy.
