PURCHASE PROCESS

Please keep in mind that we usually only have a couple of litters per year and our puppies are always in high demand... we only seek the very best possible homes for our pups.

During the screening process, we will correspond via email so that we can get to know each other better. Those who are approved will be invited to place a non-refundable deposit to join the Waiting List.

Shortly after birth, we will contact everyone on our Waiting List to announce the total number of puppies and their sexes, coloring, etc. Over the next few weeks, we will keep you informed of the puppies' progress via our Facebook Page, where we regularly post updates and photos, as well as videos.

If you live nearby, you are welcome to visit us at our family estate to see the puppies and their dam in real life, as well as to meet us and the rest of our pack. Once the puppies are around 6 weeks old, we begin making transport arrangements for the puppies that will be flying internationally to their new homes around the world. Please note, the remaining balance for your puppy should be on our account by the time your puppy is 6-8 weeks old. At the very latest, the outstanding amount MUST be paid at the time you collect your puppy in person. We do not accept "future payments by installments" (after the puppies have gone to their new homes) under any circumstance.

Once the puppies are 8+ weeks old they are ready to start going to their new homes. According to our prior arrangement, you can either collect your puppy in person (by car or plane), or meet us at a designated, mutually convenient, location in Slovenia or Austria (etc). Depending on your location and our plans, it may even be possible for us to drive (hand-deliver) your puppy directly to your house. Alternatively, your puppy can be shipped to you via plane (manifest cargo) or depending on your location and airline regulations, it may even be possible for us to fly with your puppy (accompanied in the passenger cabin) directly to your closest international airport.

If necessary, your puppy can stay at our house for a longer Extended Stay period (from 8-15/16+ weeks old) depending on the specific import requirements for your particular country. This service is offered at an additional cost to cover your puppy's additional food, cleaning, and training during these additional weeks, as well as extensive socialization with other dogs, cats and children.
