  This Questionnaire is for the benefits of placing a Puppy with an appropiate family and forever home.  Please answer honesty and if you have any questions you`d rather discuss over the phone, you may call me at  604  539-2100.  As I have taken the responsibility to breed these Puppies, it is my responsilbity to place them in the best of homes.  
 
  This Questionnaire may be overwhelming for some but these will be Questions I`d like to ask over the time of  conversing with people interested in a Puppy.
 
   I encourage intended Puppy Owners to be, to meet with me personally as I do not like to ship out my Puppies without knowing whom they are going to first.  I hope you can understand the best of my intentions.
 
  Please highlight the contents of the Questionnaire, Copy and then Paste.  Thank you for taking the time to fill out my Questionnaire and showing your interest in one of my Puppies.
