van Dalen Kennels - Buyers Guide

We welcome all those interested in obtaining one of our puppies to first visit us, even before the litter is born. Visits are always welcome. Just give us a call or e-mail us ahead.

Our puppies are not just cute puppies. They are backed up with excellent pedigrees, health clearances through OFA and CERF, and the most rigorous temperament testing.

Usually all the puppies are sold by the time they are 7 weeks old. We encourage interested people to contact us ahead of time and get set in the waiting list.

All pet puppies are sold with limited registration. Show puppies come with open registration.

We usually reserve for our self or show homes the first and maybe second picks of each litter.

Puppies can be reserved before they are born with a deposit of $200. This will set you in the future owner list and will give you the placement of your pick even before the puppies are born. First reservation gets the first pick and so on. These deposits are refundable until the puppies are born.

If you are not quite sure about a puppy yet, you can be in our waiting list, and We'll call you when there is a puppy available that matches your inquiry.

A deposit of 1/2 the total price completes your reservation of a puppy and must be done shortly after the puppies are born. The rest of the fee must be paid when the puppy is picked up.

Being in our Waiting list will not warrant a puppy. We are in Gods hands, and we may not get enough puppies to please all our inquiries and reservations.
