Pricing is as follows:

Cropped Ears - $2500 may go home at 9 weeks once sutures are removed. 

Natural Ears - $2000 may go home at 8 weeks of age. Puppies in the state of PA are required to remain with their Dam and litter mates until they are 8 weeks old.

Micro-chipping (optional) - $25 with free registry submission

Payment methods: Personal Checks, Cashiers Checks, and Money Orders are accepted for initial $250 deposit paid to reserve a puppy (before birth)AND the 1st half down once puppies have arrived (for those who reserved in advance of whelping)

Checks and M/O need to be made out to Andrea Smeltzer, not my kennel name. I closed my business banking account after the bank made account changes and began charging too many fees. Like everything else, I try to keep my expenses low, so that I do not have to pass on the additional costs to my customers.

Payment timing and amounts:

Reservation deposits prior to a litter whelping is $250 to be put on the reservation list. This is applied to the price of a puppy, when a litter is born and a puppy is available.

After puppies are born, customers may pay the full balance amount owed (minus the $250 deposit if it applies) or in 2 installments.

1st installment must be paid immediately after birth, 2nd installment in the form of CASH to pay the balance at 6 weeks of age.

All puppies sold at 6 weeks of age or later, CASH is required. If someone purchasing a puppy cannot visit in-person when puppies turn 6 weeks old, payment in the form of check / money order must be mailed to arrive before they turn 6 weeks. Especially, those being cropped, to enable enough time for those payments to clear.

Venmo

Cash App

NOTE: I do NOT offer in-house financing, layaway (I'm not Walmart), payment plans, nor financing through any outside company, money app, website, or bank.

If you have to finance the purchase of a puppy, then I would be concerned about the ability to afford vet care. Especially, emergencies.

Examples of payments with reservation deposit $250:

Cropped puppy -  $2500 - $250 deposit = $2250 divided by 2 installments = $1125 x 2

Natural puppy - $2000 - $250 deposit = $1750 divided by 2 installments =$875 x 2

Example of payments for customers who purchase an avail puppy after already born:

Cropped - Installment # 1 = $1225  and #2 = $1225

Natural - Installment # 1 = $1000 and #2 = $1000

With optional microchipping $25

This can be added to either installment
