Application to Purchase a Puppy

Each Weimaraner has a unique personality.  In order to best match the puppy with your lifestyle, please complete the following application.

Puppies are $1,300.00 each (Canadian Funds).  Upon review and acceptance of your application, a deposit of $250.00 is required to hold your name on the waiting list for the next available litter of puppies.  This will be refundable only in the event that a puppy is not available for you from that litter.  For example, the waiting list of people could want mostly females, and the litter produces mostly males.  In that event, the following would be offered:

a)  a full deposit refund

b)  choice of a puppy of the opposite sex

c)  keep you name on the list for the next available litter

The deposit will NOT be refunded under any other circumstance if there is a suitable puppy for you.  If you have any questions regarding the above, contact me for clarification.  The balance of $1050.00 (cash, bank draft or certified cheque) is payable before possession of the puppy is transferred.

31. Unfortunately, the purchase price of this puppy is just the beginning. There are trips to the vet, costs for vaccinations, boosters and worming. The cost varies with vets, but $45 per office visit is about average in my area. I suggest a crate, so the puppy will have a safe place when you are busy or gone for short periods of time. Depending on size, crates range from $90 - $150 each. Puppies will also need many toys and chew bones which cost between $2 and $20 each. Quality food for your puppy will run about $45 - $65 per month. All dogs do best if they have some formal training and puppy kindergarten classes are a wonderful way to begin training and socialization. They begin when a puppy is about 3 months old and last 6 - 8 weeks, at an average cost of $40 - $60. Obedience or conformation classes should follow. Costs for those range from $40 - $60 for an 8 week course. Are you willing and able to spend the time and money for proper care and training for your puppy? Yes No
