OUR COMMITMENT TO YOU...
We promise that we will give you the best quality puppy we can.
We promise you two parents for your puppy who have been tested for their HIPS, ELBOWS, HEART, EYES, THYROID and PATELLAS. We promise to provide you with copies of the results of these tests at the time of purchase of your puppy. You may also view them online at the CERF and OFA websites.
Our dogs and puppies are bred under the supervision and care of both a traditional and a holistic veterinarian to care for the total health of our dogs.
We promise you puppies that can be registered ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD, not just with one group or breed club.
If there is a hereditary problem with your puppy; we will work with you to fix it, we will GIVE YOU a second puppy, or we will give you your money back! We will NEVER ask you for your puppy back in return for this promise, unless YOU CHOOSE to return your puppy to us.
We promise you support and guidance for the lifetime of your puppy. As I am in my 30's, I feel certain that I can make this guarantee with a good conscience!
We strive to give you the result of dogs that have been shown and judged to the standard against their piers in the worldwide Coton community. We show, not just locally, but anywhere in the world the opportunity presents itself for us to travel. This gives us a broad spectrum of experience in knowing how our neighbors here in the US and in Europe are interpreting the standard in their programs. We are also able to look at the future of our program with an eye on the "big picture" for the breed worldwide.
Our Cotons live in our home as pets. They receive love, good nutrition, good grooming and socialization. Our puppies are part of our family and are held, touched, loved and played with multiple times on a DAILY basis. If at any time, we feel we have too many to do this with, we will downsize. We have no desire to be a traditional kennel, rather, we see ourselves as a small neighborhood boutique among superstores.
We will make decisions on which dog to breed, when, and to who, based on what is best for that dog at that time and the circumstances. We will make these decisions individually as they occur and will do so utilizing the guidelines of UKC and FCI and under the careful watch and assistance of our Veterinarians and their recommendations. (BTW, our veterinarian is currently awaiting her first Town and Country Puppy at this time!)
You are welcome to come and see us at any time. I do have a family with small children, so some accommodations must be made for their schedules. I do not work outside the home and can arrange to be here so that you can visit. You can see our entire home and yard at any time during your visit. ALL of our dogs are listed on our website. We don't have any hidden out back in kennels or in the basement.
We DO NOT SHIP our dogs' cargo. If you live out of a comfortable driving distance of our home, you may come and pick you puppy up here. If you are out of state, you may travel to us or we will provide you with the services of Becky, an experienced flight attendant and dog currier. She will deliver your puppy to your local airport from our arms to yours in her care the entire way. The charges for these services are not included in the price of your puppy, although we do sometimes make an accommodation for this depending on the circumstances.
We will sell all of our puppies under a spay/neuter contract unless an extensive show/breeding contract is signed. Although we are happy to provide you with registration and pedigree information on the parents of your puppy, we DO NOT PROVIDE you with papers for your dog UNTIL YOU PROVIDE us with proof of Spay/Neuter.
If you have any questions regarding the above, give me a call and we'll talk!
Thank you, we hope you will become a part of our Town and Country family and will be visiting us soon!
