Questions & answers ask us anything

We know bringing home a puppy comes with questions. We are here to answer them.

Choosing

Finding the right puppy for your family, and how the process works.

How do I reserve a puppy?

Reach out and tell us a little about your family and what you are hoping for. When you find a puppy who feels right, we hold them for you with a deposit and stay in touch until they are ready to come home. There is no pressure at any point, and we are glad to answer questions the whole way through.

Can we visit before choosing a puppy?

We would love that. We are right here in Port St. Lucie, Florida, and meeting the family is one of our favorite parts of all this. Send us a message and we will find a good time for you to come by and say hello.

How do we know which puppy is right for us?

Tell us about your home. Kids, other pets, a busy household or a quiet one, it all helps. Because our puppies are raised underfoot, we get to know their little personalities early, and we are happy to help match you with the one who fits your family best.

Do you keep a list for upcoming litters?

We do. If nothing is available right now, or the litter you have your heart set on has not arrived yet, just let us know and we will keep you posted as things come along.

Health

How our puppies are raised, tested, and cared for.

Do you health test your dogs?

Yes. Both parents are screened and DNA tested before we ever plan a litter. Health is the very first thing we look at, well before anything else, because it is what your puppy carries with them for life.

Are the puppies vet checked and vaccinated?

Yes. Every puppy is seen by our vet and is up to date on their age-appropriate vaccines and deworming before they go home. You will get their records to bring to your own vet.

Are your puppies AKC registered?

They are. Your puppy comes home with their registration paperwork and a documented pedigree you can verify.

How are your puppies raised?

In our home, right in the middle of everything. They hear the everyday sounds of a family, get handled gently every day, and are well socialized long before they leave. That early start is a big part of why they settle in so easily.

How do we care for a French Bulldog?

Frenchies are affectionate, a little stubborn, and happiest close to their people. Keep them cool when it is hot, keep meals consistent, and stay on top of routine vet care. We send you home with guidance, and we are only a message away whenever a question comes up.

Reservations

Reserving your puppy, deposits, and pricing.

Do you require a deposit?

Yes, a deposit is what holds your puppy and takes them off the available list. The details can change from litter to litter, so reach out and we will give you the current information before you decide anything.

How much is a puppy?

Pricing depends on the litter and can vary, so instead of quoting a number that might be out of date, we would rather tell you exactly where things stand. Send us a message and we will share current availability and pricing.

What payment methods do you accept?

We keep this simple and will walk you through the options when you reserve. Reach out and we will let you know what we currently accept.

Is my deposit refundable?

We know plans can change, and we would always rather talk it through than point you to fine print. Ask us about the current deposit terms when you reach out and we will be upfront about how it works.

Delivery

Getting your puppy home safely.

Do you ship puppies?

Getting your puppy to you safely matters to us more than anything about the trip itself. Travel options can change, so reach out and we will talk through the safest way to get your puppy home to you.

Can we pick our puppy up in person?

Absolutely, and we love when families do. Pickups happen here near Port St. Lucie, Florida, and it gives your puppy the calmest possible start to the journey home.

What are the delivery options and costs?

This depends on where you are and how you would like to bring your puppy home, so we handle it case by case. Tell us where you are located and we will lay out the options and any costs.

After adoption

Support, guarantees, and staying in touch.

Do you offer support after we bring our puppy home?

Always. Our relationship does not end when your puppy leaves. Whether it is the first week home or a question years down the road, we are a text away and genuinely happy to hear from you.

What comes home with my puppy?

Your puppy goes home with their health records, registration paperwork, and a few things to help with the change. The exact contents can shift over time, so ask us and we will tell you exactly what is included right now.

Do you offer a health guarantee?

Yes, we stand behind the health of our puppies. The specific terms are something we would rather explain personally than bury in a document, so reach out and we will go over the current guarantee with you.

Can we stay in touch and send updates?

Please do. The photos and updates are the best part of this for us. Watching a puppy grow up loved is exactly why we do what we do.

Program

About the dogs and the litters still to come.

What makes your breeding program different?

We are small, and we keep it that way on purpose. Our dogs are family first, every litter is planned with intention, and we would rather raise a few puppies really well than many in a hurry.

Do you offer stud service?

We do. You can meet the dogs behind our program on the Stud Dogs page, and if you have questions about stud service, just reach out.

When are your next litters expected?

This changes through the year. The best thing to do is reach out so we can tell you what is coming, and if you like, add you to our list for upcoming litters.

Why we answer everything

We believe informed families make confident decisions.

The more you know before you reach out, the more comfortable you will feel when you do. We would rather answer every question honestly, even the ones without a tidy answer, than leave you guessing. If something here is not clear, that is exactly what we are here for.
