🏠 Can I come visit your dogs and puppies?

No, we do not allow visits to our home for safety reasons and the protection of our family and dogs. No exceptions will be made. All puppy pickups will be done in a public location. If meeting your puppy in person before committing is a must, we may not be the right breeder for you.

​

🐾 Meet 'N' Greets

We do allow in-person meet & greets with retired adults and older vaccinated puppies.
Visit our Meet ‘N’ Greet page for full details.

​

📸 How will I see my puppy if visits aren’t allowed?

We regularly post:

• Photos every two weeks (or more often)

• Videos on YouTube

• Updates on Instagram

• Client-only Facebook group (available after purchase)

We’re always available to answer your questions via email or social media.

​

👶 Why don’t you list litters younger than 8 weeks?

We wait until puppies are at least 8 weeks old before listing because:

• They must pass major developmental milestones

• Health and wellness must be vetted by our licensed vet

• We need time to evaluate size, health, and personality

• We ensure pricing reflects quality, temperament, and type (pet vs show)

​

🧠 Can I wait to choose my puppy once their personality develops?

Yes, but we do not hold puppies while you wait. Puppies are chosen based on:

• Photos

• Videos

• Descriptions of personality and development

If you want to wait, consider following puppies not chosen immediately, as they will have time to mature.

​

💰 How much do your puppies cost?

Puppies range from $1800 to $6550.
"Itty bitty" puppies cost more due to the intensive care they require.

​

💸 Do you offer discounts or payment plans?

Yes! We offer:

• Repeat client & multi-puppy discounts

• Military, first responder & senior discounts

• Case-by-case payment plans

• PayPal Credit option

Note: Discounts don’t apply to already reduced-price puppies. Senior and Hero discounts are not valid on Merle/Dapple or Domino marked puppies.

​

🐶 What about littermate syndrome?

While this can be an issue for some breeds, Chihuahuas and Dachshunds thrive in pairs or small groups. Many of our families adopt two at once or return later for a second companion.

​

✈️ Do you ship your puppies?

Yes! We use a pet nanny service that flies with your puppy in-cabin.

• Cost: $500–$750

• Deposit required on their website

• Balance paid in cash upon delivery

• Shipping days: Tues–Thurs and some Fridays

​

🛬 When can we fly in or meet in Portland?

Meet-ups and pickups are available:

• Tuesday–Thursday (sometimes Friday by special arrangement) 

• No weekends

Meet at Portland International Airport (PDX) during available days.
