N2SPOTS GREAT DANES
PUPPY POLICIES AND PRICING

We want to thank you for your interest in N2Spots Great Dane puppies.  We take pride in our Danes and strive to make sure that all of our puppies are placed with forever homes.  Please take the time to understand the Great Dane breed and make sure that having a 150-200 pound gentle giant is what you and your family are ready to take on.  If you have made the decision to add a Great Dane to your family, congratulations, and get ready for one of the best friends you've every had!

Policies of N2Spots Great Danes:

All of our puppies are AKC registered, come with age appropriate vaccines, deworming, dewclaws removed, genetic health guarantee, puppy packet with health records and sample of puppy food, and of course, Lots of Love!  We vaccinate according to AAHA (American Animal Hospital Association) vaccination guidelines and the recommendation of our veterinarian.

Your new puppy will be eating an holistic line of kibble and raw frozen diet, including real chicken, lamb, beef and vegetables.  The protein, caloric, and fat content of this food has been recommended by many Great Dane professionals.  We feed it to all of our Danes and will provide a sample of it for your new puppy.  If you choose to switch to a food recommended by your veterinarian, please remember to transition your puppy slowly over a couple of weeks to avoid digestive upset and diarrhea. 


We must speak with you prior to accepting a deposit.  Once we have contacted you following your puppy application, we must have verbal contact by you in order to reserve a puppy.


We reserve the right  to not sell a puppy to anyone, for any reason.


Deposits

A
non-refundable deposit (amount determined by breeder) is required to reserve your puppy.  Puppies are reserved on a 1st come basis, in the order that deposits are received.  If you have chosen a puppy and advise us that the deposit is in the mail, if we do not receive the deposit within 5 days, the puppy will be made available again.  We will NOT hold puppies without a deposit.  We accept USPS money orders and PayPal ONLY.  We encourage you to use PayPal because it is safe, you do not have to have a PayPal account to use it, and it insures that your puppy is reserved.  A 3% fee is added to all PayPal transactions, by PayPal, not us.  

Be sure you understand that all deposits are non-refundable, with the following exceptions, and ONLY these exceptions:


1)  Illness of chosen puppy that makes the puppy unfit for placement.

2)  Genetic defect determined by veterinarian exam prior to transfer date.
3)  Death of chosen puppy prior to transfer date.

In these cases buyer has the right to:


1)  Full deposit refund within 30 days.

2)  Deposit being applied toward another puppy from this litter or a future planned litter.

Health Guarantee

We have a health guarantee contract that guarantees the puppy to be in good health at the time of transfer.  Within a two year period from birth, if a genetic disorder that is sufficiently serious or life threatening in the opinion of two qualified veterinarians, and all nutrition guidelines provided by us have been followed, then we agree to replace the puppy with one of equivalent quality from the next available litter.  If the puppy is to be returned to the breeder, the AKC registration papers will be returned with the puppy, and ALL shipping costs will be at buyer's expense.


Requirements

- We require that all puppies sold with LIMITED AKC registration be spayed/neutered by 8 - 12 months of age by a licensed veterinarian, or all health guarantees will be void.  FULL AKC registration is determined by breeder, and to approved homes only.


Below are AKC Rules for Registration:

AKC Full Registration
- Dog may participate in any AKC sponsored event.  Puppies produced by two dogs fully registered with the AKC are eligible for AKC registration. 

AKC Limited Registration
- Dog is ineligible to be entered in an AKC licensed breed competition or member dog show, but may participate in other licensed breed events such as Obedience, Tracking, Field Trials, Hunting Tests, Herding, Lure Coursing, Agility and Earth Dog.  NO puppies produced by a dog with Limited Registration shall be eligible for AKC registration.

-  That all new owners read and understand our feeding guidelines.  Failure to follow these guidelines, and the advice of your veterinarian on nutrition for your new puppy, may contribute to preventable health problems, and even death, and void the breeder's warranty.  Our feeding guidelines will be included with your health guarantee contract.


-  That you contact us for the return of your puppy/dog at any point of his/her life if you are unable to care for him/her.  We do not want our puppies to end up in shelters or with people who may not care for them.  All shipping expenses would be paid for by the buyer. 


-  That the balance owed on your puppy be paid in full, including all shipping expenses, by the time the puppy is 7 weeks old.  Puppies being picked up by their new owners will be released at 8 weeks old.  Puppies being shipped will not be released until they are 9 weeks old.  Paying the balance at 7 weeks gives us time to arrange the vet exam and any travel plans.  We accept USPS money orders and PayPal only.  PayPal accepts your checking and credit cards and you do not have to have a PayPal account.  We can handle processing an invoice for you via our website or email.


Shipping


Shipping is available for your puppy.  We use Continental PetSafe which guarantees a temperature controlled environment for your puppy at all times.  We will ship your puppy out of DFW Airport to the closest major airport to you.  We live about two hours from the airport so we need to minimize the number of trips.  We will coordinate shipping dates with you, but unfortunately we cannot always accommodate everyone's schedule.  The current cost for shipping is $350.00 anywhere in the U.S., this includes the crate, travel exam, food, and a toy.

We can deliver puppies within the DFW metroplex within a reasonable distance.  There may be a small delivery fee to cover gas expenses. 




Puppy Pricing - Prices subject to change at any time

Puppy pricing will depend on pedigree, color, and markings of each puppy and is determined by the breeder once the litter arrives.  Below is a general guideline for our prices:


Harlequins - $1,500 and up for Limited AKC registration, spay/neuter contract.  Full registration available to approved homes only. 

Mantles - $1,200 and up for Limited AKC registration, spay/neuter contract.  Full registration available to approved homes only.
