Pricing Policy, Deposits and Terms of Purchase

Below are the Terms and Pricing for puppies and adults.  We are small breeders striving to breed show quality Pomeranians and American Eskimos.  We only breed a few litters each year and strive to be fair and honest in our dealings with all our customers.  Please do not contact us to tell us that you can buy a puppy from the local newspaper for $200.  We know this.  You may not be looking for a show quality puppy, but that doesn't mean you will get pet quality price for a show quality puppy.  Our prices are set according to what we see in the quality based on structure, coat, color (for Poms) and attitude of the puppy. 

We strive to bring top quality into our breeding program and are confident in our ability to produce top quality Puppies.  Our goal is to produce genetically and temperamentally sound Pomeranians and American Eskimos that meet the AKC Club standard.  Spending the extra $ to purchase a sound and healthy Puppy will save many more $$ spent at your vet's to treat the genetic conditions we don't breed in the first place.  We know this since we have spent this money ourselves.

All of our dogs are AKC registered, and we register all of the puppies. Some puppies are sold as "pet" puppies, with limited registration.  When you purchase a "pet" quality puppy you will be signing a contract agreeing to spay or neuter the puppy so do not expect to buy a "pet" quality puppy and then decide to breed it. Most litters will have puppies that are not the quality to be bred, or shown. This may be for cosmetic reasons, such as lighter pigment, or an incorrect bite. The pup may not be outgoing enough to perform well in the show ring. His size may be less than perfect (to small or too large) but he will still be a loving pet. Puppies sold as "breeding/show" prospects come with full registration.  Our puppies are raised in a family home environment where they are part of the family.  You won't find our dogs "stored away" from our home, in an out building, where we hardly ever see them.

On occasion we will place an older dog to a loving home as a pet.  These will be rescue animals or retirees (from ours or other breeders program) who deserve a family where they can be doted on throughout the remainder of their days.  Being a breeder means being contentious enough to keep our quality improving while keeping our numbers small enough that all can get the love they deserve.  This will occasionally mean placing a much loved adult in another loving home.

At the bottom of this page you will find a link for Adoption application.  Please read and accept all of these terms prior to applying to adopt.   Thank you for your consideration.
 

 

 
Pomeranian Puppies Pricing

Quality

Coloring

 Price Range
Pet (limited registration) Orange, orange sable, red, red sable, black $650 to $900
Exotic* colors $750 to $1,300
"Throw back" puppies larger than AKC standard of 3-7lbs (this is estimated with our 8 week evaluation weight**) $450 to $850

Exotic* colors $900 to $1,700
Show potential Orange, orange sable, red, red sable, black $1,000 to $2,500
Exotic* colors $1,500 to $2,700
Shining star - this is referring to something that we REALLY REALLY like and really aren't ready to part with, but will if the price is right.

$2,500 and UP
Although we do not breed for tiny Poms, occasionally they do come up.  Tiny pet puppies  of exceptional quality are priced at show quality prices due to the demand for them.  "Tiny" is an estimated adult weight under 4lbs.
 
* Note A puppy that is not orange, orange sable, red, red sable, black is usually an exotic color.  White, chocolate, blue, cream sable, parti, lavender, beaver are all examples for exotic colors.
 
** Note Weight is a genetic that is really tough to estimate.  We absolutely do not guarantee an adult weight, we do try for our best guess (get that? this is a guess).  Based on our experiences with our lines we have a formula that has given us the most accurate results in our guesses.  We have no experience with lines other than ours.  Even with the most consistent of lines there are throwbacks to our 60lb ancestors. 

We estimate the weights of our puppies with the following formula:
  • 8 week weight x 3 +.5lb - which means a puppy weighing 1lb 1oz at 8 weeks will be estimated at 3lb 8ozs as adult.  We would indicate 3.5 to 4 lbs with our evaluation.
  • 12 week weight x 2 +.5lb - which means a puppy weighing 1lb 2oz at 12 weeks will be estimated at 2lb 9ozs as adult.  We would indicate 3-3.5lbs with our evaluation.
  • If the adult weight is over 6.5lbs all bets are off, as we have seen absolutely no consistency there and have been right on just as often as we have been totally off so we will decline to estimate.
American Eskimo Puppies Pricing
American Eskimo prices are easy
  • Male = $750
  • Female = $800
Other than Puppies
Adults may vary widely depending on age, health concerns and disposition.  
Rescue dogs will be placed for the cost of their Vet charges for spay/neuter, teeth cleaning and shots; plus $60 placement fee.  All of these monies will be returned to our rescue fund so that other rescue animals can be taken in.  Rescue dogs are not generally AKC registered.
Deposits and Terms of Purchase
We require a deposit of $100 to reserve the dog (non-refundable).  Balance must be paid within 3 weeks of the initial deposit and 10 days prior to shipment.  If the balance is not paid within the 3 week period the dog will become available for resale, unless the puppy was reserved before the age of 8 weeks.  If that age falls outside of the 3 week period payment is due at the 8 week mark.  Other payment arrangements maybe made on a case by case basis.  All monies must be received by the seller, in full, prior to transfer of the animal.  Should the payment not be received within the agreed time we will credit the entire deposit toward the purchase of another puppy within a one year time period.  If the credit is not used within that one year period the credit becomes null and void making it no longer valid.

The evaluation of breeding and show potential is our best estimation at 8 weeks as to what that puppy will grow out to be.  We use the Pat Hastings "Puppy Puzzle" method of evaluation, but in show prospects a definitive evaluation cannot be made on puppies less than 9 months of age.  Breeder assumes no responsibility as to reproduction capabilities of this male or female puppy.  Show prospect is defined as "having no major or disqualifying faults for his/her age - on the date of this sale".  Show or breeding male prospect will have two testicles descended into the scrotum at maturity or a replacement will be made when one becomes available.  If buyer elects to keep the dog with a warranted defect, as described above, the seller will credit the buyer the amount paid for this dog toward any future purchase of another dog to be used within a two year period.  Credit will be applied after the seller provides Vet certification indicating the dog has been spay or neutered.  If the credit is not used within that two years period the credit becomes null and void.  No other warranty either expressed or implied exists between the buyer and seller of this breeding or show potential dog.

We guarantee this puppy/dog to be in sound body and good health, and free from communicable disease as far as appears to the eye.  We provide a 72 hour warrantee against distemper, hepatitis, leptospirosis, adenovirus2, parvovirus, and corona virus.  The buyer has 72 hours (Sunday not included) from the time of transfer to have the puppy checked by a veterinarian of their choice, at their own expense.  If the buyer’s vet exam reveals that the puppy is sick or diseased or a genetic defect is found and a vet of the breeder’s choice concurs with the diagnosis, the buyer may return the puppy to the breeder at the buyer’s expense.  Notice of intent to return must be given to the breeder within 96 hours (Sunday not included) of the date of the transfer, along with a statement in writing from they buyer’s vet as to the heath problem.  The breeder will apply the balance toward the purchase of another puppy/dog within a one year time period.  Shipping of the replacement puppy is the buyers expense.  If the credit is not used within that one year period the credit becomes null and void.  There is no guarantee against accidents, sickness not contracted on the breeder’s premises.

All pet puppies must be spayed or neutered - without exception.  Registration papers may not be given until vet proof of spay/neuter is received by the seller.
Shipping of Pomeranians
Shipping is done at the buyer's risk and expense and we do reserve the right to hold the dog for shipment until weather permits it being done safely.  Additionally no puppy will be shipped prior to 12 weeks of age and a minimum of 2.5lbs of body weight.  Air shipment runs about $200 plus additional vet check and health certificate (and rabies shot if required).  We do not provide international shipment at this time.  Payment in full is expected 10 days prior to shipment.  If payment is not received a minimum of 5 days prior to shipment, puppy/dog will be held until full payment is received.  Any additional shipping costs incurred for puppies held from shipment for weather or non-payment will be the responsibility of the buyer.

The risk of shipping is the responsibility of the buyer.  I do not encourage a buyer to ship by air in any situation.  Know that airlines absolutely provide NO type of medical assistance if the puppy is in distress.  We supply our puppies with plenty of kibble, water and goey food with Karo syrup to help with the stress.  I am stressing this as a friend has had a puppy shipped in from Ohio.  When she arrived she was in obvious distress, comatose and seizing.  The airline personal sought NO Emergency Veterinarian care.  When she got there, more than one hour after the plane landed, she was comatose and having seizures.  She received the emergency care that should have been provided and she has recovered nicely.  That airline (Continental) has refused to cover any Veterinarian charges that were the result of their negligent delay in getting emergency care.

Buyers are always encouraged to come to our home to pick up their puppy.  This also gives the buyer the opportunity to see the surroundings that the puppy is coming from.  We will gladly meet a buyer at the airport and have no problems allowing a small puppy to travel with you in the cabin where you can keep a watch on them.
Shipping of American Eskimos
Although American Eskimos are much heartier with shipping than Poms, shipping is still done at the buyer's risk and expense.  We reserve the right to hold the dog for shipment until weather permits it being done safely.  Additionally no puppy will be shipped prior to 8 weeks of age.  Air shipment runs about $250 - $350, depending on where they are going, plus additional vet check and health certificate (and rabies shot if required).  We do not provide international shipment at this time.  Payment in full is expected 10 days prior to shipment.  If payment is not received a minimum of 5 days prior to shipment, puppy/dog will be held until full payment is received.  Any additional shipping costs incurred for puppies held from shipment for weather or non-payment will be the responsibility of the buyer.
