• Please feel free to include any additional information that you think will be helpful. Choosing families that suit our puppies is something we take very seriously and the more detail you can provide, the better. If you have additional questions after you submit this application, you can TEXT me at 203-240-7265. Please include your full name and let us know you have submitted an application.

• If you are approved and we have a puppy for you that has already been born, we will be in contact soon. All companion puppies are priced at $3500. (Plus CT State Sales Tax). The deposit is $500 and is non-refundable. Puppies must stay with their litter mates for a minimum of 8 weeks of age. You will most likely not know which puppy is yours until they are 7-8 weeks of age. Please know that placing puppies is a complicated process and we require your patience. Before you send your deposit, we will provide our contract for you to read. Deposits can be paid via Venmo, ACH Transfer, or Certified Bank Check.

• If we do not have a puppy for you at this moment, but feel you are a candidate for our waiting list, we will notify you via e-mail. If we agree to add you to our waiting list, we require a $50 “waitlist fee”. This fee is to show that you are serious about purchasing a puppy from us and proves a small level of commitment on your end. This fee is rolling if you decide to wait for the next available puppy. Holding fees may be paid via Venmo only, good for one year and are non-refundable unless we decide to back out of the commitment. We only accept full deposits on puppies that are physically born.

• If at any time we decide that our program is not a good fit for your family, we will provide a full refund of your holding fee or deposit. We always reserve this right, even after deposits have been paid.

• Due to COVID-19 and our strict biosecurity measures for humans and dogs, we do not currently allow visitors to our home until the day your puppy goes home. We will provide photos and videos of puppies at our convenience via text or on our Instagram account @the_atlas_labs. Please be aware that this is a hobby (albeit, a serious one) and I am not always able to answer communications immediately. Our dogs and puppies are part of our busy family unit which includes several young children and other animals that require my attention on a constant basis. We truly raise our puppies to be part of our family and do not operate like a commercial breeder or pet store.
