Potential Puppy Placement Questionnaire


Please answer the following questions honestly.  This assures you that the puppy with the most suitable personality and physical ability can be chosen for placement in your home.  Please return this questionnaire as soon as you have completed it.  Filling out this questionnaire does not guarantee that a pup will be placed with you, but gives us an opportunity to get to know you better.  Those who return a completed application to us will be added to our email update list.  Email us at any time if you wish to be removed from this email update list, as it is not required to be considered for a puppy.  Applications may be shared with other breeders.
