Getting a Destiny Puppy
Thank you for your interest in
getting a puppy from me. It's my goal that every Destiny puppy becomes
a cherished and valued family member so long as he or she lives. To
achieve this goal, potential homes are carefully screened in order to
match just the right pup with just the right home. Mine is a very small
breeding program, producing a litter only occasionally. It's very
important to me to find responsible, lifelong homes. I strive to breed
the best possible dogs – those that have great temperaments, possess
true Aussie type and are beautiful too. Below are some things for you
to consider during your search for a puppy:
- All puppies are cute; I am a committed advocate of
responsible breeding practices. A puppy is for life
and I ask you to make that long term commitment.
- I ask that you research the Australian
Shepherd breed thoroughly. This breed is not for everyone
– they are active, inquisitive and challenging.
Occasionally, they do not adapt well to our modern urban
environment. They require lots and lots of human and
other animal interaction and training to develop into
pleasurable companions as adults. Please remember that
what you get out of your relationship with your Aussie
is fully dependent upon what you put into early (and
on-going) training and socialization.
- I require that you have a fenced, secure
yard where your Aussie can get a lot of exercise.
- I offer rebates for completing obedience
classes.
- Your puppy is guaranteed healthy and
disease free when it is released to you at 8 to 10 weeks
of age.
- The pup will come to you fully guaranteed
for sound temperament and free of genetic defects. I
will replace your puppy at no charge (except shipping,
health certificate and shipping crate, if needed) should
either circumstance arise for the lifetime of the pup
so long as I am actively breeding and have a replacement
pup to give you from a future litter.
- Puppies are well socialized when they
leave my home. They are raised underfoot in my home
with lots of contact with children, friends and other
friendly pets as well. They have their first set of
shots and are wormed.
- All my adult breeding dogs are in superb
health and are my personal companions who share my home
with me.
- I will ship a puppy; however, I prefer
if at all possible you come and pick up your puppy in
person. I've shipped a lot of puppies and never had
a problem, but the shipping process is stressful on
a young pup, not to mention the nervous breakdown I
almost always have before getting your call that the
pup arrived safely! Shipping and related charges are
not included in the price of your puppy.
If you are interested in a Destiny
Aussie puppy, please e-mail
me to request a questionnaire for you to complete and return
to me. Or call me at (775) 233-0219. Thank you.
