Puppy Application
Prospective new families of puppies need to answer this questionnaire. Please print, or copy. Please be very thorough in your answers. Once the application is complete, you can mail it to : Sharon Blackburn, 1292 State Route 29, Celina, Ohio 45822 , or scan it and e-mail it to: sblackburn@bright.net . Along with the application, there is a NONREFUNDABLE holding fee of $25. This fee holds your spot in line for a puppy, and allows me to know you are serious about adding a puppy to your family. I accept US postal money orders, payment via PayPal (along with a 4% transaction fee), or cash, if paying in person. Once the pups are born, and you've made your choice, a $300 NONREFUNDABLE deposit is required, along with the signed contract (look on the contract page). Review the contract, and ask any questions you may have, prior to submitting the application.
