She said the deposit must be in check form but that she will not cash the check until I pick out a puppy and sign a contract at 8 weeks. If I don't like any of them she will not cash in the check and I can keep my money. Then they go home at 12 weeks. She said she works on potty training them before hand and also works with them so they will not have separation anxiety. If I don't have the money by the time they are ready to go home (which I will) she said I could keep the puppy at her house, no problem, until I was ready to give her the rest of the money. She even said she would not charge me extra for food, etc. I thought this was nice of her. All her dogs live with her at home and I can meet the entire family when I go to pick a puppy out. She also recommended I look for other breeders so I was sure and did not pressure me into getting one from her. She told me that even if I decide against buying from her-which was okay- that I could call her any time I had a question. She also told me that she has an account on YT and that I should visit this website.
I would check on her guarantee and ask if her breeding pair are tested. Also, for $2,500 I would expect she would have the pup bile acids performed and this cannot be done until they are 16 weeks of age.
