For Puppies Available Now CLICK HERE
If your timing is not right and you do not see the puppy that you are looking for on the Puppy page, we are currently accepting Applications
for future Pet Puppy litters. Once your application has been approved, and you are ready for your new family member, you will be able to
place your name on the RESERVATION LIST.
Getting on the Reservation List
In order to be added to the Reservation List, you will need to: #1 complete a Puppy Application and return the completed application to
us, #2 Upon approval of your application, there is a $200 non-refundable deposit that will need to be submitted that will go toward the
purchase price of a new puppy. Once we have received your deposit, your name will be added to the bottom of the waiting list. In all
fairness, your pick will be in the order that your name appears on the list for the puppy that you are looking for. EXAMPLE: If you
request a female and your name is the top name on the list, you will have choice of any female. If you request a Blue Merle Female and
your name is on the top of the list, you will have first pick of all the Blue Merle Girls available in the litter. After first pick has been
made, this same process will move to the next name on the list. Please bear in mind that the more specific you are about your request,
the longer that it may be to for Nature to Fill your Request. You can always ask us how many names are above yours to help you decide if
you would like to be added to the list.
What if I choose not to be on the Reservation List?
This is also OK if you choose not to be on the waiting list for our puppies, but we will still request that you submit a Puppy Application to us
and we will keep you posted on our upcoming litters. Please remember that all the people on the Reservation List will have first Choice of
puppies in the litter before folks that are not on our reservation list and everyone must be pre-approved.
Reserving/Holding a Puppy
If you are not on the reservation list and have found a puppy that you would like to make part of your family, we still require a $200 non-
refundable deposit to hold any puppy until they are 8 weeks of age. This deposit does go towards the purchase price. All of our puppies
are considered still For Sale until we have received your Deposit. We encourage e-mail or phone correspondence to help with any
questions you may have about our puppies.
Paying for your Puppy
All puppies must be Paid for In Full prior to leaving our home. We require full payment of all puppies at least 3 days prior to leaving or by
8 weeks of age unless prior written arrangements have been made. If you decide to pay by personal check, your check must clear prior to
the puppy leaving so please allow extra time for your check to clear. We do accept PayPal as our preferred form of Payment. If you
cannot pay for your puppy in full and have not made other arrangements with us by the time the puppy is 8 weeks of age, we will repost the
puppy for sale.
Shipping my Puppy
We do ship our Puppies during certain months of the year and Weather Conditions permitting but would prefer for you to come pick up
your puppy here in Colorado to minimize the stress of leaving home for the first time. Shipping costs are the Sole responsibility of the
Buyer, although we will help you by making the reservation and choosing the most direct flight for you little one. Shipping costs may vary,
but here is an example of the
Cost for Shipping in addition to the Cost of the Puppy:
Air Fare: $210
Vet Certificate to fly required by the USDA: $45

Please keep in mind that these cost are here as an example and may vary depending on the costs of each individual item at the time of

All Puppies must be picked up or shipped between 8-12 weeks of age. If we hold your puppy any longer, you will incur a Boarding Charge of
$10/day as an additional cost that will need to be paid in full prior to your puppy leaving our home.
