GENERAL RHEGED PUPPY GUIDELINES
♥ The dogs are our hobby, not a profit-making business & we make no apologies for screening who will own one of our precious puppies.
♥ Be prepared to allow a dog to live with you in your household, as part of your family. Springers do not thrive in an outside yard or a kennel situation.
♥ Preferably have someone home most of the day or consider doggie daycare.
♥ IMPORTANT! You MUST have extremely secure dog-proof fences as Springers follow their noses & wander off hunting, & they are very agile, can dig & may easily scale 6ft fences.
♥ Be prepared to walk & exercise your new puppy every day.
♥ Be prepared to attend puppy preschool or your local dog training club.
♥ Be prepared for & able to cope with LARGE amounts of dog hair & dirt as Springer Spaniels can shed hair all year round. They LOVE water & mud, so Springers may not be recommended for the house-proud owner. Could you cope with this?
♥ Do you have small pets, ie, rabbits or Guinea Pigs? Do you have pet birds, chickens, geese or other fowl? If so, you may wish to consider another breed as Springers are bred to hunt & may not always be the best choice unless you can supervise them, train Spaniels or be prepared to learn.
♥ Be able to afford any Vet Bills ~ & these can sometimes be VERY expensive.
♥ Be prepared to groom your puppy. Springers do require ongoing lifetime coat care.
♥ Be prepared to de-sex your puppy should it not be required for breeding.
♥ Register the puppy with your Council & transfer Microchip details to yourself.
♥ In accordance with Australian law, all puppies will have full tails.
♥ Puppies are initially vaccinated whilst they are with us, with all follow-up vaccinations being the responsibility of the puppy's new owner, as advised by their own Veterinary Surgeon.
♥ We will worm all puppies whilst they are with us, with new owners to follow up regular worming as advised by their own Veterinary Surgeon.
♥ We will start all puppies on a Heartworm prevention programme according to recommendations, with new owners to be advised by their own Veterinary Surgeon.
♥ We will provide new owners with all of the puppys worming & vaccination records.
♥ Puppies will be ready to leave for their new homes NOT before 8 weeks of age.
♥ Because we are registered breeders, we will register all puppies with Dogs NT & all puppies are sold with their original Dogs Australia Registration Papers.
♥ We will initially microchip all puppies according to Dogs Australia & national regulations.
♥ All puppies sold as 'pets' are sold outright & will be registered on the Limited Register & are not for showing or breeding, but can compete in ANKC Trials.
♥ We are open to discussing selling puppies registered on the Main Register for showing, breeding, etc. All puppies sold with potential for showing &/or breeding are sold outright.
♥ We will provide information on Springer Spaniels, & care of your new puppy, feeding, training, health & so on to prospective new owners.
♥ All puppies must be paid for in full before they leave for their new homes.
♥ All transportation of a puppy to their new home & family is the financial responsibility of the new owner.
♥ We will always try to match the personality of a puppy to a prospective new owner & family. This may also mean that although we may have pups, we might not have one suitable for you or your circumstances at that time.
♥ We will always be available to offer advice after a puppy has left us.
♥ Puppies will be given a thorough Veterinary examination before they leave us & any results will be made available to the prospective new owner.
♥ We will always take a puppy back should new owners find that they are unable to look after the dog any longer ~ with all original registration to be signed & will accompany the dog upon its return to us. We offer this for the lifetime of any dog bred here, with no questions asked, as we understand that circumstances can & do change.
♥ Please feel free to contact us for any further information regarding a puppy.
