Wanyama Ranch Puppy Application
Please complete to the best of your ability. We use this form to help us determine the best puppy to suit your needs. Most of our puppies go to working homes, however, there are occasionally puppies that are more suited to being companions. Companion-type puppies are not common in our litters. Please note: Wanyama Ranch selects puppies for the buyers between 8-10 weeks old based on the information provided in this application and individual communications with the buyer, taking into account preferences whenever possible. Puppy buyers do not choose their own puppy.
