Purchasing a Puppy
PURCHASE
All of our puppies are AKC registered. Our puppies vary in price (litter and color dependent), but a general guideline on pricing is below. Once born, the exact prices will be listed on the "Available Puppies" page. All prices are for AKC Limited Registration (pet registration). Full AKC Registration is +$500 and will allow you to breed (and register) the litters with AKC.
​
NOTE: unless otherwise specified, we do not color test (DNA) our puppies. We advertise them based on what color/marking they visually display. This may change over time as they get older. Coat color and eye color will often change as the puppy gets older.
​
Black Pied: $2.5K - $3.0K
Black Brindle: $3.0K - $3.5K
White: $3.5K - $4.0K
Blue Pied: $4.0K - $4.5K
Blue: $4.0K - $4.5K
Merle: $4.0K - $6K

​
Once you decide on a puppy, contact us and let us know which puppy you would like to purchase. Open, fill out, and sign the Deposit Contract (below). You can print the pdf, fill it out and email/text it to us, or you can complete the digital version of the contract by clicking "START FILLING". Once you click SUBMIT it will email us the Deposit Contract. You can preview the contract prior to submitting by clicking "Preview PDF" (beside the SUBMIT button). Once we have both Deposit Contract and the $500 deposit, your puppy will be considered "Held" (and will be marked as “RESERVED” on the website). We will then sign and email/text you the signed Deposit Contract.
​​
On the agreed upon pick-up date we will both sign/date the Puppy Contract (pdf below for your review), and the balance on the puppy (full price minus the deposit) will be paid. Final payment must be in cash (unless previously coordinated with the sellers). You may review the Puppy Contract at any time (it's posted below). If someone other than the named owner (e.g. the Buyer's contracted pet delivery service) is picking up the puppy, a release form must also be completed by the new owner. Contact us for the release form. The puppy must be paid-in-full prior to turning the puppy over to the Buyer's delivery service.
Meet Ups & Delivery
We live in the Southern Mississippi countryside, in the middle of Hattiesburg, Columbia, Purvis/Lumberton (pins on map below). It takes us about 25 minutes to get to any one of these locations. If you’d like to meet up and see a puppy(ies), we’d be happy to meet you in any one of these locations. If you purchase a puppy, we will meet you in one of these locations to deliver your puppy (no charge). If you would like us to delivery a puppy to a location outside of these four locations, a pet delivery fee will apply (specifics below).
We offer pet delivery services (we will drive or fly your puppy to you). We have flown a puppy to Boston, MA for as little as $750. We offer worldwide delivery (provided there are no country restrictions). Our puppies fly in the cabin with us if we fly your puppy to you. Prices for delivery (roundtrip) are below:
First 200 miles $150
65¢ per/mile for each mile beyond 200
At ~700 miles the cost may include a hotel stay (contact us)
≥ 1,000 miles roundtrip (contact us -- pending flight fare)
For delivery outside of 1,000 miles, we will fly your pet to you (the puppy will fly with us in the cabin), or you may set up a 3rd party delivery service (there are several agencies that will drive or fly your pet to you). We will do our best to accommodate your delivery service. The puppy must be paid in full prior to us releasing the puppy to your delivery service.
WARNING
According to the Better Business Bureau, approximately 80% of online puppy sales are scams (and in our experience, French Bulldog puppy scams lead the way).
​
If you don't purchase from us (or even if you do), we advise you to read the below article (click "Link to article"" button below) on AKC.org for tips on how to avoid a puppy scam. If we have a litter(s), you can cross-reference our litters on marketplace.AKC.org (it generally takes about 2 weeks to register a littler on the AKC Marketplace).
Food & Meds
We use Pedigree Puppy for all our puppies. Frenchies have temperamental palates, and feeding them the wrong food can often cause digestive issues and/or skin issues. We've found that this brand works really well for all our puppies and (to date) we have had no digestive or skin issues.
​
We recommend using Heartgard Plus to prevent heartworm disease, as well as NexGard for fleas/ticks. NexGard kills fleas and ticks fast, as well as FDA-approved to prevent the infections that cause Lyme disease by killing black-legged ticks.
Most other OTC heartworm and flea/tick medication are not nearly as effective.
