Export Information

Puppy rearing:

Our puppies are always raised in our home. We have dew claws removed at approximately 3 days old.  We also begin using neurological stimulation techniques at that age, to stimulate brain activity and enhance senses, a proven technique outlined at www.breedingbetterdogs.com.  Socializing puppies is an important aspect of creating a well rounded dog. We socialize our puppies as much as possible with people they don't know and dogs outside of their family unit. Our puppies are weaned onto Puppy Eukanuba at the appropriate age. They are released to their new homes on an individual basis depending on how they are doing, their litter size, when they start to eat on their own, and lastly how they react to their puppy shots. Generally, puppies go home between 8 to 10 weeks.  This is only if the puppy is completely ready to go and the environment where the puppy is going is a safe and secure one. Occasionally we have an older puppy available. These puppies usually have a better defined temperament and adjust very well to new environments.

Vaccinations:

Our puppies receive an initial vaccination prior to going home.  We give shots at 7-8 weeks, 11-12 weeks and 15-16 weeks. After a pup is a year old, it requires an annual booster. Our puppies are wormed several times prior to going to a new home. We typically worm our puppies at 3, 6, 9 weeks.  We use Revolution, a once-a-month application, to control Heartworm and external  parasites during the spring to fall months.  Depending on the time of year, we start our pups at 8 weeks on this medication. We will work with you on whatever requirements are necessary for exporting a puppy to your country.  Each country has different vaccination requirements.  We will find out what the requirements are for your country to ensure an easy exportation.

Health/Temperament Guarantee:

We guarantee all puppies to be healthy when they leave the kennel.  If you receive a puppy from us and a health problem develops within 72 hours, you must contact us regarding the problem. We cannot be responsible for veterinary costs not approved prior to treatment. Should any dog sold by us develop any hereditary disease before the age of 10 years from birth date, a replacement of the dog with one of similar quality shall be made after receipt of veterinary proof of disease. 

Our dogs are guaranteed against Hip Dysplasia. OFA Evaluation (by an X-ray taken by a qualified veterinarian) must be done no sooner then 24 months. OFA grading of Excellent, Good, or Fair are considered acceptable. (Must be rated by OFA). Less then Fair will be replaced.

We guarantee all our dogs against hereditary eye diseases. Should a dog we sold develop a hereditary eye disease before the age of 10 years, we will replace it with one of equal or greater value. 

If you are not 100% satisfied with his/her temperament (as described in the Breed Standard), please return your dog in healthy condition, within 1 month for a full refund, less shipping. If your dog shows unprovoked aggression towards people, return your dog and we will replace him/her with another of equal or greater value.

All parents of our puppies are in superb health. We OFA certify (see Orthopedic Foundation of America web site) all of our breeding dogs. They have their eyes certified clear of hereditary eye defects by a certified ophthalmologist annually and we use either CERF to register them (see CERF (Canine Eye Foundation of America) web site) or the SHOR registry (SHOR is the SHCA Siberian Husky Ophthalmic Registry).

The above guarantees and replacements do not include shipping to and from your country.

Contracts/Agreements

All of our dogs and puppies are sold with sales agreements containing our expectations from you as a responsible dog owner and our health and temperament guarantee. 

If you are completely sure that you are ready to add a Bralin  Show Puppy into your life, please fill out our application for consideration.  If you are approved (I will contact you with the good news), and we will forward to you our sales contract. You are encouraged to send in a $200 deposit to assure that you will be placed in order for a pup from the coming litter.  If a puppy does not match your choice (male, female, etc), then I will transfer your deposit to the next litter or I will refund your deposit.  If you place a deposit with us and then get a different puppy from another kennel, and/or you no longer wish to be on the waiting list within 2 weeks from the puppies turning 8 weeks old, you forfeit your deposit. If due to unforeseen reasons, you need to postpone getting your puppy, I we will transfer your deposit to a future litter.
