Puppies
are socialized and health check-ups around 6-7 weeks of age. |
GENERAL INFORMATION:
We have kept our number of dogs minimal to create a warm family atmosphere for our dogs and puppies. All of our puppies and dogs socialized and Vet checked.
We do not sale outside the USA, to puppy shops, or to brokers. We do not sale to other breeders .
Our puppies are born and stay indoors until they are weaned around 4-1/2 weeks of age. They are then transferred to the whelping shed with an in/out door run. This helps with potty training.
Please check out our testimonials page. You will see that our puppies/dogs are good natured and are good with families and children.
PURCHASE PROCEDURES:
Puppies go to their new homes at 8 weeks of age. Puppies at 8 weeks of age will be sold, wormed, 1st shots and vet checked for overall health. When you receive your puppy, proof of vet checkup will be supplied, a CD that contains parent dogs information, heritage of parent dogs, and a wealth of information on care of your dog. You will also receive receipt/contract of payment for your records, and AKC registration papers(when payment is made in full). There is a two-year written guarantee to cover genetic disabling diseases detected within 2 years of age.
VACCINAIONS: 1st vaccinations will be given prior to sale. Buyer is expected to continue 2-3 week interval puppy booster shots until puppy booster shot schedule is reached then Buyer is encouraged to only do 3 year minimum booster shots thereafter, not one year as past tradition has been done. Huge studies are finding that dogs' immune systems are at great risk by doing unnecessary yearly shots or ganging shots (doing multiple shots the same day). Please read about this.
PRICE: As of 2011 our price starts at $900.00 with 2-yr health guarantee that includes hips and elbows.
SELECTION PROCESS: If we get more than one buyer in a general location such as Denver, CO or Lincoln NE, we can usually deliver, otherwise you will need to come pick your puppy up and depending on our schedule we may be able to meet part way. Buyers may make selection via photos posted on my site. Buyers are welcome to come visit to make their selection in advance but will honor the deposit date received selection process. We will allow buyers to make their selection pup as early as 6 weeks of age and after they have a clean bill of health from the Vet. We do not do temperament tests. Puppies act differently from one day to the next. Personality, color, size, and other details are difficult to choose from a just a photo. I highly recommend that you tell me what type of puppy you are wanting, what type of work you expect from it or if you just want a calmer house dog. I will guide you to the best suited puppy for your needs. I observe them every day and know each puppys' personality. I want each puppy to go to the best suited family. Sehr Gut Wesen German Shepherd reserves the right to pick of litter.
Because we are a small operation, we do not have the ability to take payments through paypal or credit cards. Once you have determined that you want a puppy from us, we ask for a down payment of $250 check or cashier's check. You will then be put on the choice list according to the order we receive down payments.
We accept deposits in advance but may need to limit the number people requesting the same color and sex. We usually accept 2 males and 2 female deposits in advance from each litter.
First deposit will choose 1st from their predetermined sex (male/female) and color desired (blk/tan or black). After deposit is made and the puppies are born, the buyer is locked in his/her choice of color, sex, and litter choice, but still has the option to move to another litter if they choose, if there is still an opening left in alternative litter. Because we held that spot for the buyer until the puppies are born, deposits are non-refundable at that point, but can be moved to alternative litters. If the desired litter does not produce the deposited sex or color desired, buyer has the option to have deposit refunded to him/her or can choose to carry it to another litter. However, when carrying to another litter he/she, will fall behind any others that have already made a deposit on alternative litter.
COLOR CHOICE: Choosing black/tan can be black/red, and can consist of anything from just the lower legs developing to tan or significant fading which consists of only a black saddle and muzzle. I do not guarantee a specific fading or hue. Coat lengths usually are set apart by long coat vs. plush or short coat. Short to plush coat is categorized together. Getting selection early will increase your chances of getting more of what you want for color and coat. Please read this article on coat colors.
DELIVERY OR PICK-UP DAY: Each buyer will have his own time and place to look the puppy over, about an hour. If you are not able to pick your puppy up at our kennel, we may be able to meet at an easy to find location usually a Public place or park depending on our schedual. If you live outside West CO or Westcentral Nebraska areas you will most likely need to come pick your puppy up as we usually do not deliver to other areas. Depending on buyers' location and our schedule we may be able to meet partway.
MAKE DEPOSIT CHECK: to Andrea McCormick or Sehr Gut Wesen. Upon puppy and papers in your hand, we require cash in full. We require this vs. checks so that all papers, puppy and exchanges are done and completed on the spot with no pending issues after the sale. You will receive a receipt/sales contract for this transaction.
When you mail your deposit check. Please include on a sheet of paper your: first and last name, mailing address, phone number, and email. If you do not send this information to me, it will make it difficult for me to be able to contact you for updates and meeting place\time to get your puppy. Include with your contact information: what breeding litter you are depositing for, if you want a male or female puppy, black\tan or solid black. Please sign and send all of the above information to Andrea McCormick, PO Box 502, McCook, NE 69001.
