Registration Papers

Pilesgrove Pups sell puppies on behalf of breeders in our closed network dog club. We are breeders first and began the club we created.  There are situations in which we do not receive your pup's registration papers upon puppy acquisition. However, 99% of the time we have the registration papers within 14 days. There can be unusual situations in which the breeders are unable to provide us registration papers and/or the registration firm is backed up and will need extra time to send out paid registrations.  In such cases we have no control on the outcome as we aren’t the actual breeder. If registration papers are very important to you, please call and verify we do have them prior to shipping your puppy or picking up. Most customers are buying for a family pet, so registration papers aren't necessarily a requirement for ownership. If we don’t have registration papers when puppy is being tendered we cannot guarantee with 100% certainty the puppy will have papers.  In those small rare cases, we have been able to reach a financial reimbursement amount to make customers happy.

Date of birth on registration papers will always be the correct DOB. When waiting on papers, breeders can sometimes provide us dates of birth (DOB) written/verbally and a mistake can happen. The DOB on the printed out registration form is correct and the DOB received at time of purchase is approximate until the physical registration papers are in hand with one of our team members.

Pilesgrove Pups has no official affiliation with AKC, ACA, NPCR or CKC and takes no responsibility for their actions or lack thereof.  We are a customer of those registration firms just like other breeders are.

Refunds

All refunds are processed within 15 days of customer request; the process can take 5-10 days to post to your financial institution. We do not offer refunds for retro-active vet bills, pet returns nor shipping charges as all sales are final. We only offer a replacement puppy per our warranty.

Health Certificates

All puppies which are sent via airlines have a health certificate that MUST be present at the airport upon rendering the pup. If you, or the airline representative, lose or misplace the white/pink health certificate, please send us an email or call us. We can supply a computerized shot record to you. Please allow us up to 3 days to provide you this information.  For puppies being picked up locally, or delivered by car a Health Certificate is not required.

Weight Guarantee & Use of term "TEACUP"

Pilesgrove Pups uses the term "TEACUP" to simply refer to smaller breed puppies. If you are searching for a dog with a specific size, please purchase one of our puppies where we may offer a specific weight guarantee. The term "TEACUP" does not mean that the puppy stays under a specific weight at full grown size and should not be assumed the word means we guarantee a certain size.  Pups with a size guarantee oftentimes are priced higher due to the risk we are taking on guaranteeing something which can change off many factors outside our control.

Breeding Rights and Pet Quality

We only rehome our puppies with the intention of them being a family PET, not to be bred. In the <0.1% chance you are a qualified and experienced breeder with breeder intentions, it's understood you will make those intentions known to us before placing a hold or picking up the puppy. We qualify breeders first and don't take any breeders into our program who are just starting. If you have had 3 or more litters, and want to be a part of our program, we also need to do an extra Vet check and charge a breeding rights fee (Normal fees are $250-$1000 depending on breed & gender). Formal Spay/Neuter contracts on paper are a somewhat dated approach to limiting bloodlines because now the same thing can be done with a registration PIN on AKC paperwork. A breeding rights discussion before your purchase is required to avoid the surprise the pup's registration can limit the furthering of bloodlines. We also do not guarantee any pup will be good for breeding now or in the future --even with a healthy Vet check. Things change, dogs change, Vet opinion changes. No one can look at a puppy and know if the dog will be a good adult dog to breed. We also pre-screen our families wanting to breed in future with a face-to-face interview to discuss breeding experience & breeding goals.  Because of the aforementioned, we do not do any sort of discount pricing for breeders & must charge a breeding rights fee on top of the listed pet price. 99% of families are purchasing a pup for a family pet, and the lion share of our customers fall into this category. 

Breeding Specific Traits

Dog breeds tend to have signature traits: Border collies love to herd, greyhounds love to chase, and German shepherds make good guard dogs. There are also physical traits inherited which let you know you have the right breed in hand. For instance, there aren't too many French Bulldogs or English bulldogs with long noses. There aren't too many of those two breeds with overbites as well :)  A breed specific trait is something you know is there, just by being with the dog for minutes, or seeing it with your own eyes. Traits like these are highly heritable and should never be considered a negative thing caused by bad breeding. When you are buying a mini/toy breed there are some characteristics which are more common (i.e. they have higher instances of teeth misalignment, hernias, and some luxating patellars). Another breed specific characteristic would be a Shih Tzu or ShihTzu mix having an underbite. Shihtzu's are notorious for having cute underbites and because of this it is considered a breed characteristic rather than a defect.  Other mini breeds will also have teeth misalignment, this is normal. The breed standard for Shih Tzus acknowledges the possibility of a slight underbite, and it is not usually considered a cause for concern in terms of the dog's health or well-being.

Hereditary And Congenital Disorders

All puppies are checked by Veterinarians for the major hereditary and congenital disorders before leaving our care. The parents of the puppies have also been checked to be free and clear of any major disorder. Small breed puppies are prone to disorders such as knee failure and liver failure due to their size or breed risks. Though the risk is minimal, small breed puppies can have a slightly increased amount of certain genetic disorders due to their small make-up.

Pup Availability Date/ Take home date:

All puppies listed on our site will have a TENTATIVE take home or available date which is listed on the pup's ad & can change if a puppy isn't meeting their milestones.  Some smaller maltese & maltese mixes tend to be our number one concern however there are also some other breeds which can cause us pause as well.  We want you to know your puppy is in GOOD HANDS and if we time the transition right for the puppy to be rehomed, you will have an A+ experience.   Whenever a family doesn't allow these take home windows to adjust, we should have options for OTHER bigger dogs you can swap to, or available earlier. However if you want the pup you selected we reserve the right to rehome them when we see fit. 

Right of Refusal

We had a 4 page pre-adoption questionnaire we sent to families adopting for years and years.  That process became too cumbersome and didn't work the way we had hoped because families would simply call us and ask us what they were supposed to put down.  It created more problems than solved, so we resorted back to phone calls & verification via calls & meet and greets.  We look at adoptions as we do a marriage both sides need to agree at each point during the adoption.  We do reserve the right to sell a puppy to the best fitting family, not necessarily the family who simply has the money.  We operate like an adoption agency and we want PEACEFUL transactions where both sides agree it will act with every intent towards goodwill moving forward.

Adult Size & Weight Estimates

We are providing estimated adult weights on all our dogs based on parents' size, breed history, litter size and age at 9 weeks.  Please understand that when you are purchasing a mix breed dog, especially one between a larger breed and a smaller breed, the puppy has the possibility to take heavily after one parent.  Sometimes when the puppy reaches adult size it may be smaller or larger than the estimates provided.  If weight and size is a major concern, please stick with a small breed dog where both parents are under the weight you desire.

Hereditary And Congenital Disorders

Please understand that all puppies sold by Pilesgrove Pups have been checked for the above disorders prior to leaving our facility. On top of the puppies being checked by the vet, the parents of the puppies have been checked to be free and clear of any disorders. By purchasing a small breed puppy you are putting yourself at risk for disorders such as knee failure, hip failure, and liver failure. Though this risk is minimal, we do want you to understand that small breed puppies can have disorders due to their small make-up.  For this reason we provide a Health Gaurantee and offer pet insurance.
