Magnum was from a breeder I know personally. We charge a fee for finding the pup, not a total fee. In other words, if the pup costs R2500, the customer pays that, but also pays us an additional R500 for our service.
We do this for people, like our current clients, who have either been unable to find a reputable breeder or don't have the time to drive around to the breeder - which are sometimes in my town, sometimes a three hour drive away and sometimes the pups need to travel by plane.
We handselect our breeders, have a waiting list - pups are not always available - and have strict criteria for pet owners. We inspect their backyards, and the environment in which the pet will live before we process their registration.
We do our service one pet at a time. We aim to place the perfect pets in the perfect homes, not to make money.
