How to Reserve Your Puppy – Reservation Fee Policy

To place a temporary hold on a specific puppy or secure priority placement within a litter, families may be asked to submit a $500 reservation fee, which is applied toward the total purchase price.

Reservation fees are only accepted once:

  • A puppy application has been completed

  • A Zoom or FaceTime interview has taken place

  • You have been officially matched with a puppy or placed on the active waitlist

Once a reservation fee is received, that puppy (or reserved placement spot) is removed from public availability while final arrangements are made.

All terms related to reservation fees, cancellations, and refunds are outlined clearly in the purchase agreement and comply with current California breeder regulations.
