Please be sure all members in the family are in agreement of bringing home a new puppy before filling out my Puppy Questionnaire.
Thank you.

This Questionnaire is for the benefits of placing a Puppy with an appropriate family and forever home. Please answer honestly 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 responsibility to place them in the best of homes accordingly.  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.  If you are living in the U.S.A. please read through the CDC Site regarding bringing a puppy into your Country. 

  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.
