All the puppies have been to the vet and had their first set of shots and have been wormed for
the first time as required by MN law. It is your responsibility to get the puppy to your vet and
on a "stay healthy" program. Puppies will require additional shots and worming at your expense.

We ask for a $250 deposit. If we are unable to provide you with a puppy, you may choose to

| Are these puppies AKC registered? |
Usually, an "AKC Application of Registration" will be given to you when you receive your
puppy. You must then register the puppy with the AKC at your own expense. The
application offers several options. The fee varies depending on which option you choose.

| I see Brittanys in the paper for sale at $150-$300. Why so much for yours? |
The Current price for a puppy $750 regardless of the sex. Shipping and handling is extra. Total
cost of ownership starts with the purchase. I invest in proven bloodlines, prove the lines I own,
and offer training. The old saying applies, "They know what their dogs are worth".

| What is better, Female or Male? |
Puppies are like people, they all have a different personality. Chose based upon the personality
you want, not the sex. Sex is important to field trial folks who want a dog as part of a breeding
program. In some cases, where there are small children under eight, pick the same sex as the
children. If you are a HARD CORE hunter, a male offers more muscle and endurance in the field.

| Do you have a spay or neuter requirement? |
Should I spay or neuter my dog?
No! We do not require you spay or neuter your dog; however, we do ask that you be a
responsible dog owner. We do require that your dog not be used for indiscriminate breeding.
Not every puppy is perfect. Once in while we have a puppy that may have a problem and it is
unfit to breed. We will sell that puppy with a limited AKC registry. Please see purchase
agreement. This is a personal decision you will need to make. Your vet may recommend you
spay or neuter your dog at an early age. We have great respect for the veterinarians who care for
our canine companions and their offspring. It is not our intent to undermine that relationship;
however, we feel it is important that you also have the following information:
From our perspective as a breeder, it has been our experience that, if you wait to neuter a male
dog until 2 years of age, he will "muscle out" more suitably for field use. Some owners have
regretted spaying or neutering too early because their dogs developed into ideal specimens. If
left intact to breed, they would have been beneficial in perpetuating the positive attributes of the
Brittany. AKC show and field events require the animal be intact (not spayed or neutered).
Many of our puppy owners, having completed our "U-Train" program, have gone on to compete
in AKC and NSTRA field trials and AKC hunt tests
