What’s Next?

Completing this application is a step in the process to acquiring a puppy from Highpoint Poodles, but it does not guarantee that you will get a puppy from this litter or future litters. While it’s unlikely, the breeder reserves the right to refuse any placement at any time or for any reason. The breeder also has the right of first pick of the litter.

If this application is approved, I will E-mail you back and set up a phone call or video chat.

Once you are approved for a puppy a $500 non-refundable deposit will need to be made via check or PayPal ($515.41 includes fees). If we do not receive your deposit within 5 days and do not hear from you, we will move on to our next person.

* Please note our deposit policy: if you make a deposit, you are committing to taking a puppy from the litter. We can not guarantee your gender/color preferences will be available. *Deposits are non-refundable but can be transferred to other litters.

Puppies will be ready to go home by the time they are 10 weeks old. Please make arrangements with us via email or text.

All of our puppies are sold on contracts and they will not be placed without a signed contract. We believe it’s the professional thing to do to memorialize our obligations to each other on paper so there are no questions later, and for that reason it is lengthy. If you have questions about specific terms, you need to contact us before picking up your puppy.

We require our pet puppies to be spayed/neutered by the time they are 18- 24 months of age, but not before. Any puppy from our home always has a home here, and is to NEVER be surrendered to a shelter or rescue.

Our companion puppies will come with limited registration papers, however, you are still able to compete in AKC sporting events. (AKC Limited papers are INCLUDED in your puppy’s purchase price)

We do not sell to ANYONE who breeds poodle mixes of any kind.
