SageKeep's Puppies

 

Shali's Litter, March 2003

My breedings are carefully planned a long time in advance of the actual breeding. I spend a lot of effort researching pedigrees and agonizing over choices. For me, this is a painstaking process and is a whole lot more than just letting dogs mate.

My primary traits to breed for are temperament, longevity and overall health. Other very important goals are correct breed structure, movement and type.

All of my puppies are sold as AKC Limited Registration with spay/neuter agreements. I conscientiously place any show prospects with carefully screened, select people on a co-ownership basis.

I do these because I feel a strong responsibility to protect those Berners and pedigrees entrusted to me.

If you'd like more information about my breeding program and/or you wish to view my puppy contract, please email me: info@sagekeep.com

Why buy from a Show Breeder when you only want a PET Berner...

Typically, Show Breeders are the BEST source option to buy a PET from.

This is because Show Breeders pay close attention to ALL those important items necessary to produce a top quality Show Prospect (aka, breeding prospect). This is why they bred the litter: to get a SHOW/breeding Puppy. However, each litter will yield only One (1), MAYBE two (2), pups that are truly 'Show Potential' (no matter how large the litter is), aka, 'Breeding Potential'. All the other pups produced will be sold as quality Pets.

For Pet Buyers, this means Your Puppy was bred given serious and meaningful consideration to temperament, health, longevity, structure, breed type and more in the pedigrees involved. And THAT means you have a superior benefit from a good breeder's efforts.

You can be assured that a breeder who doesn't Show their dogs is a breeder who is making puppies solely for profit and NOT for the best interest of the breed.

Therefore, PLEASE - Please don't buy from a breeder who does not actively SHOW their dogs.

Waiting List & Puppy Deposit

Creed

 

I maintain a waiting list only :

- when I am fairly assured I have a litter.

- never more four months prior to the expected birth of a litter.

-with a limited amount of potential buyers so that each potential buyer should expect to get a puppy from that next upcoming litter.

 

I accept a deposit only if :

-I have heavily interviewed the potential buyer (you) and all references.

-The potential buyer (you) has heavily interviewed me and all references.

-We have confirmed that we approve of each other for a puppy purchase.

-I have confirmed my girl's pregnancy.

-I have every reason to expect there will be a puppy for you in that litter (only up to 4 deposits will be received prior to litter's birth to help ensure a puppy from that litter for every deposit paid).

 

If I have accepted a deposit from you :

-The deposit is considered non-refundable.

-I have every reason to expect you will have a puppy from that litter.

-I have the right to refund your deposit if I feel that is the best course.

 

 

DON'T PAY A PUPPY DEPOSIT TO BE ON A WAITING LIST

FOR ANY BREEDER

UNLESS

THE BREEDER HAS AGREED YOU WILL HAVE A PUPPY FROM THAT VERY NEXT LITTER!!

 

If I'm not having a litter anytime soon...

 I PREFER TO HELP YOU FIND A CURRENT LITTER

BY A GOOD BREEDER IN YOUR AREA.

 

BUT - if you want to inquire about my next litter, contact me:

 PUPPY@sagekeep.com

 

 

If you'd like some good Breeder References in YOUR AREA...I may know of a few other breeders who may either have current litters, or litters planned. And I definitely know of other quality Berner people who do know good breeders throughout the USA.

 

Email Me

and I'll do my best to connect you with other ethical breeders.
