What happens with the microchip registration?
On the day you collect your puppy you will sign your pups microchip paperwork or if the pup is being transported to you I will sign on your behalf. I will give you a copy to keep and I will send a copy off to council to have the microchip transferred in to your name.
You are also welcome to take a copy to your local council to ensure the microchip database is updated an the pups microchip is in your name incase they become lost.
You are required by law to register your pup with council by the age of 6 months, there is a fee you will need to pay, this please contact your local council to find out more information.
Can I come and visit the puppies when they are born?
No, first visits are not until pups are a bit older as mums find it far to stressful to have unknown people come to our home when they are protective of their babies. Timing will depend on mums and pups and what is best for them. Usually by 6 weeks we can start to have small puppy socialising parties with visitors.
Will my pup be house trained when it comes home?
While we start the process of house training, young pups will not know the rules at a new home, you will need to train the puppy where it can toilet in their new home. The puppies mums have already taught the pups to toilet outside via a dog door and away from their food, water and sleeping areas. Puppies do have accidents and have tiny bladders to you will need to ensure you are supervising and showing your pup where they can toilet.
Do you always have puppies available?
No we don’t sorry. As much as we love puppies we generally tend to breed when we have a reason to.
Where do you advertise your puppies?
Mostly on www.dogzonline.com.au
What do you do to ensure you are an ethical breeder?
