Puppy Application

Owning a dog is a lifetime commitment. They are a member of the family and are not to be taken in lightly. The application process for acquiring a Trublumate Puppy involves getting to know potential owners to ensure they understand the commitment of owning a dog. It helps the breeder understand the kind of home and life a prospective owner can offer to an Australian Shepherd and whether a Trublumate Puppy is a suitable match. The application also provides information about the purchasing process and aims to answer any questions the applicant may have. It encourages applicants to provide as much detail as possible to strengthen their application.

Price Information
At Trublumate Australian Shepherds, we prioritize finding committed and capable owners to ensure our puppies develop into healthy, well-adjusted adults. We do not accept deposits for unborn puppies and prioritize suitability over first come, first served. At around 2 weeks old, we confirm if a suitable puppy is available in the litter, and a non-refundable deposit of $500 secures the puppy. Specific puppy assignments are made close to 8 weeks after assessments including vet checks and temperament testing. The remaining $3500 must be paid before collection. Meet and greet events are held after the first vaccines, providing an opportunity to meet the puppies, their mother, and our other dogs, while allowing us to learn about your family and preferences to match the perfect puppy to your home.

Your puppy's care package includes Dogs Queensland registration, microchip transfer, DNA testing, veterinary checks, vaccinations, worming, and a puppy pack. We also provide ongoing support, boarding, grooming, and training services to facilitate a smooth transition into your home.
