Puppy Application 4/2018

Application for AKC French Bulldog Puppy

Private Reserve Frenchies LLC
Psst...thanks for completing this application! At first glance, you might thing "sheesh, this is a little long - are all these questions really necessary?" I know, because I thought the same thing when we got our dogs! We hand-raise all of our puppies in our home with so much love and we hope you love your new adition to the family, too.

Every family is different, and there are no right or wrong answers. We know many families sometimes have two working adults and we don't expect anyone to be a superhero and quit a day job just to be able to take home a puppy. Every puppy family has different needs, and this application helps us identify who needs what information and what homes might make the best fit. If you're a veteran Frenchie owner, we don't want to waste your time regaling things you already know; by the same token, if this is your first puppy or first French Bulldog, we want to make sure you leave prepared for what life with a puppy may bring. So again, thank you!

Puppy Preference
We understand this can be a very exciting time for our potential puppy buyers! Starting at 2 weeks of age we allow our approved buyers on our waiting list to make their picks in the order they were approved. Once you make your pick we require a $1,000 non-refundable deposit to hold until weaning. Deposit goes towards final purchase price of the puppy.

We completely understand the urge for potential puppy parents to want to come visit our puppies. We do not allow any visitors but are more than happy to facetime you. This allows their mothers plenty of time to bond with them, often our females are very protective of their new babies until around then. At 8 weeks of age the puppies will also have their first round of shots which protects them against certain illnesses very common in puppies.

We post weekly updates (at least!) of our puppies so you will see many photos and videos of the puppies until you are able to come meet them!

If you prefer to wait to make your pick until you can meet the puppies we are more than happy to allow you to come pick in person after the puppies are 8 weeks of age. In most cases all of our puppies are placed prior to 8 weeks of age and we are unable to hold puppies without a deposit. Please contact us if you have any questions or concerns regarding this.

What to expect
Completing this application is a step in the process to acquiring a puppy from Private Reserve Frenchies, but it does not guarantee I'll get a puppy from this or any future litter. While it's unlikely, the breeder reserves the right to refuse any placement at any time.

If this application is approved, you'll be notified when the puppies are born and be required to send a $1,000 non-refundable deposit within 7 days in order to hold the puppy of your choice. Please note our deposit policy: if you make a deposit, you are committing to take a puppy from the litter, regardless of whether your gender/color preference is available. Should you elect to not take a puppy from the litter, the deposit is forfeited. We do the best to match preferences. Deposits are non-refundable.

From time to time we may decide to keep a puppy out of a litter. We reserve the right to hold puppies. This may mean that certain puppies may not be available for a couple weeks while we decide on if we may keep the said puppy or not.

Puppies will go to their new homes at 8 weeks. Puppies must be picked up within 7 days unless other written arrangements are made.

We have a contract and will not place a puppy without a signed contract. We believe it's the professional thing to do to memorialize our obligations to each other on paper so there are no questions later, and for that reason it's a bit lengthy. If you have questions about specific terms, you need to contact us prior to picking up your puppy.

If you purchase "Limited Registration" we require spay/neuter at or before 12 months. Proof of the procedure from your vet is required before we will release the said dog's registration papers.

*We do not allow any puppy to leave our property prior to 8 weeks of age, NO EXCEPTIONS*
