Puppy Purchase Process
The Conner Creek Puppy Purchase Process can be completed by following a few easy steps. We have guided over a thousand puppies to their new homes in the last twenty years and have developed best practices to provide for a happy transition for both the family and the puppy.
Step One:
The Decision
Yes, step one does not involve Conner Creek at all. In fact, close this web page and gather the family around or other trustworthy advisors and ask the question “Are we ready for the responsibilities and obligations that come with bringing in a new member to our home.
Puppies can be demanding, they require healthcare, feeding, grooming, socialization, loving and they can be expected to be with you from 10 to 14 years (and that is human years, not dog years). However, the love and happiness they bring to a home cannot be duplicated.
Step Two:
Picking your new
puppy partner
So, the decision has been made. Now go to our available puppies’ page and view our available puppies. Take your time but keep in mind our puppies are being viewed by a considerable number of people at any time. We have had some sad faces from people who wait too long to make a decision and find that their puppy choice has already been taken by another.
Step Three:
What do I look for when selecting a puppy?
Okay, so this is your match.com section of puppy purchase process, except puppies don’t list their bios. Just like selecting a human companion, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
We can’t tell you the size of the puppy when it is full grown, only the size of the parents and standard size for the breed.
We can’t tell you that the coat color might not change or that the markings might alter slightly. However, the color and marking you experience upon receiving your puppy are a very good representation as to their markings as adults.
So, what can we tell you? What is the biggest mistake we see people make when selecting their puppy? They start with an implicit bias.
In other word they come with a preconceived notion of what characteristics they want the puppy to have. They only want a female…a male …a super tiny puppy. We cannot emphasis enough how many people change their minds after viewing puppies and their personalities. Keep an open mind and you will make a much better choice for you!
Step Four:
Complete the waiting list request form and put down a deposit
If you see a puppy that is presently available, or you wish to select from an upcoming litter you will need to complete and submit the puppy wait list form. A non refundable deposit of 300 dollars must be forwarded at the same time the Wait List form is added to the list. You will not be added to the wait list, until the deposit is received.
Conner Creek retains the full and complete right to refuse any purchase of a puppy, as is allowable by law. Our puppies are of the finest quality available, and we are diligent at ensuring that our puppies don’t go to pernicious parents.
Not in Nashville? No problem! We have experienced transport nannies available to help.
We have experienced transport nannies available to help. We have transported puppies from coast to coast. Our nannies are young professionals and retired law enforcement officers, who ensure the safety of your puppy during transportation. Your puppy will be hand carried by the nanny, who will remain with your puppy, until the completion of the trip. Your new puppy will then be placed into your arms upon arrival.
We provide group text messaging during the whole time your puppy is in transport. You will know when it arrives at the airport, enters on the plane, and lands at its destination.
Unfortunately, due to the volatility of the airlines, during these present times, the cost for a nannie may vary greatly. In addition, there are limited schedules and availability for delivery, as the airlines have cut back on many flights. Our advice is to book as soon as possible as it has been shown to provide cheaper fares and more efficient options.
