🐾 The Puppy Process at Crowndale Acres

From first inquiry to forever friend — here’s how it all works

Welcoming a new puppy into your home is such a special journey, and we’re honored to walk alongside you every step of the way. Whether you're just beginning to explore or you're ready to find your perfect match, here’s what you can expect when you bring a puppy home from Crowndale Acres.

🛎️ Step 1: Getting Started

Start by reaching out through our contact form, social media, email, or just give us a call! We’re happy to answer questions, help you decide which size or temperament might be the best fit, and let you know about upcoming or available litters.

We often have a waitlist for our puppies, so reserving early is encouraged if you have your heart set on a particular litter, color or timeline.

📆 Step 2: Reservation & Deposit

Once we’ve chatted and you’re ready to reserve a puppy, we’ll guide you through our deposit process. A non-refundable deposit (typically $400) holds your spot on the reservation list for your chosen litter.

When the puppies are born, we’ll keep you updated with photos, videos, and milestones as they grow — it’s all part of the fun!

🧸 Step 3: Matching & Selection

We begin getting to know each puppy's personality from the start, and by the time they’re 6-7 weeks old, we’ll help guide you through the selection process. We work closely with each family to make sure your puppy is the best fit for your lifestyle and goals.

Whether you're looking for calm and cuddly or spunky and outgoing, we’re here to match you with a pup that complements your family perfectly.

💰 Pricing & What’s Included

Prices vary slightly depending on size, breed, color, and generation. You can always find individual puppy prices listed on our Available Puppies page.

Our puppies typically range from $1,500 to $2,500 and include the following:

✔️ Vet check & first vaccinations
✔️ Up-to-date deworming
✔️ Microchip
✔️ Early crate training introduction
✔️ Socialization & enrichment exposure
✔️ Health guarantee
✔️ Puppy folder with records
✔️ Go-home goodie bag

🎁 Puppy Packages

Each of our puppies goes home with a thoughtfully prepared puppy package that includes:

🛏️ Familiar scent blanket (to ease the transition)
🧸 Favorite toy
🍽️ Small bag of current food
📘 Health & vaccine records
🐶 Tips for the first few days at home
💌 A little love from us to you!

🚗 Step 4: Go-Home Day

Puppies go home at 8 weeks of age, and we’ll coordinate pickup times so everything goes smoothly. We also encourage families to send us their puppy’s crate ahead of time, so your puppy can become familiar with it before going home — this helps make the ride home and first night more relaxed and comforting.

We’re always available for questions, advice, or puppy check-ins. Once a Crowndale puppy, always a part of the family. 🐾
