Puppy Application
Sandhills Bullmastiffs Puppy Application
Thank you for your interest in our pack!

There are no right or wrong answers to the following questions. The purpose of this application is to help me understand the personality and tendencies of your family to make sure we have a good fit of personality and temperament of puppy & family. Every family and every puppy is unique and has different needs. If you are a first-time bullmastiff owner, you may need more information and helpful resources than an experienced bullmastiff owner. It is important to me that you have the tools you need to have a fulfilling relationship with your new companion.

We currently have puppies from MBISS All Breed BIS GCHS Bullrinkles Wizard Of Oz "Merlin" X CH Lonelycreek's Naomi Matriarch In The Sandhills "Naomi". We were blessed with brindle, fawn, and red puppies.

Puppy contract is for limited (pet) registration - this requires a spay/neuter agreement. Every puppy will be microchipped, examined by our veterinarian, Health Certificate, immunized, and dewormed.

What to expect from us
Completing this application is a step in the process to acquiring a puppy from Sandhills Bullmastiffs but it does not guarantee you will get a puppy from this litter or any future litters. While it's unlikely, the breeder reserves the right to refuse any placement at any time.

APPROVAL AND DEPOSIT: I will review applications within 1-2 business days of receipt. Applications are processed in the order they are received. When/If your application is approved, you can send your $500 deposit. Puppies will be picked in the order in which deposits are received. You will only get to choose a brindle or red puppy if that is designated as your first preference. We do not begin choosing usually until they are 7- 8 weeks old and can be stacked on a table. Puppies have been microchipped by then and there is no mixing them up. We ask that you make a choice within 24 hours of notification since there may be other families waiting for a chance to choose. Should you elect to not take a puppy from the litter, the deposit is trasferrable to another upcoming litter.

GOING HOME: We can not hold puppies for extended times - it is critical for their social developement that the litter departs within a reasonable timeframe. If you have a big vacation planned or have events that would conflict with a young puppy, please know that puppies cannont be boarded in a kennel until they have received their full immunizations which cannot be done until 4 months of age.

CONTRACT: We have a contract and will not place a puppy without a signed contract. Please email for one erin.mitchell.2011@icloud.com We believe it's the professional thing to do. If you have questions about specific terms, you need to contact us prior to picking up your puppy.

SPAY/NEUTER: We require spay/neuter at or before 12 months of age. Sadly many well-intentioned people don't remeber to spay before the first heat cycle (usually around 11 months for a bullmastiff) and suddenly their barely adolescent dog is pregnant by studs of unkown heritage. Spay surgery, while pregnant, is very risky.

REGISTRATION PAPERS: Our excellent family companions come with registration papers to the American Kennel Club
