Here at Herdabout Shelties the puppies well being is our
utmost concern and first priority.
Please be sure to read and understand our
Costs & Guarantees
before filling out this Adoption Form.
We reserve the right to refuse a sale.
Wanting to purchase a puppy ?
Each puppy
has an individual personality and temperament and we try to best
suit the individual puppy with the home that the puppy would perform
best in. Therefore we need to find out some information about
you and your family in order to match you with a puppy that you will be
pleased with.
If you could kindly answer the questions
below it
will help us select the puppy with the best suitable personality. It
would not be responsible for us to place a dog with a high drive for
agility or herding into a home that wants a calm, laid back, couch
potato-type dog.
Once you
are sure that you want one of Herdabout Shelties' puppies and we
have are sure that we
have the right puppy for you, we ask for a non-refundable
deposit of $200 to hold the puppy for you. The
deposit is non-refundable if you back out of our deal / contract. If
something happens that makes the puppy unavailable,
and we need to back out, then the $200 deposit would of course be refunded to you.
We
don't mean to scare anyone off, or offend anyone in any way with
these questions. We just
want YOU to be very happy with the puppy you purchase, and we want
THE PUPPY to be happy too.
