Please be sure to pick a good vet (before picking up your puppy) & have a scheduled first visit within 3 weeks of pickup. This will help you to get your puppy established as a new patient & you can schedule their next vaccines. Take any medical paperwork with you that we have provided to give to your vet, so they will know where we ended & where they need to start. Your vet can confirm to you that the puppy is healthy. If the vet has any concerns, please let us know immediately with a written statement from your Vet. 

We are committed to sending you home with a happy & healthy puppy. All puppies will be checked by a licensed veterinarian, receive their first round of vaccines, be dewormed every 2 weeks, starting at 2 weeks of age, be microchipped (fi nano microchip, no monthly fees), & AKC Registered before going to their new home (pre-paid for you). We  cannot guarantee the color, size, or temperament of your dog when it reaches adulthood. A good indicator of your puppies future coloring is the color found on the tips of their ears, something that we learned from the breeder that we got our girl, Sadie, from. All of our puppies are socialized with children and other pets to ensure that they are well-adjusted and ready for their new homes. You will receive a written health guarantee (see the Health Guarantee file below) at time of pickup, signed & dated by us, as well as a paper from your puppy's first vet visit. 

We will ask you how long of a drive/trip the puppy will have to go to your home so we know how to get the puppy ready (for instance, we may need to adjust its feeding schedule that morning. A small crate or carrier lined with towels, a soft blanket, or washable pee pads would be best for a long drive. Goldens like to shred or eat the disposable pee pads, so we don't recommend those. We will provide a dog travel water bottle that the puppy can drink from, as well as other items to help get you started.
