​
If unforeseen circumstances cause you to miss your time slot on Puppy Day, you will forfeit your spot in the pick order. Others may be scheduled to choose their puppy after you and we cannot, at the last minute, reschedule an entire litter. This is a courtesy to the other clients who may or may not be traveling to pick up their puppy. We will make every attempt to squeeze you in around the others but it may not always be possible and you may be last pick of the day.
HOW DOES PUPPYDAY WORK?
Puppy Day is an experience to remember... New puppies, New friends, and lots of pictures!
Families arrive at their appointed time to our home in Brighton, CO. We may schedule one boy and one girl to meet their families at the same time. That way each family has their alone time with the gender they choose. The day begins at 10am and continues until the last family leaves with their puppy. We ask that you please respect other clients’ timeslots by not arriving early.
Families and puppies interact…lots of playing with puppies, laughter, and tears of joy. Some families choose their puppies quickly, others linger over the decision because all the puppies can be so similar. Often families bring a friend or another family member along for the experience.
If paying by cash you will pay while signing your paperwork. Along with the puppy, you will sign your purchase agreement for our records. You will receive your AKC papers, a copy of the purchase agreement, a Westie Whisper’s leash, and a sample of Fromm Puppy Gold food.
Local families drive to the house in Brighton, CO. Flying families rent cars or take an Uber or Lyft from the airport.
For our Nebraska, Iowa, and Kansas City clients we can meet you after the regularly scheduled Puppy Day in Ogallala, NE if you are driving or if "flying private" (Searle Field - OGA).
For insurance reasons and health concerns for the puppies, we ask that family pets do not come along or remain in the vehicle if they do accompany their family.
