So you are interested in getting a Puppy...
Here's what you do... and how it works...

Contact us via email or phone. At the initial contact we will chat, ask some questions and arrange to send you our puppy questionnaire to fill out. It contains questions pertaining to your lifestyle, your previous dog experience, if you are looking for a pet companion or a show potential puppy. Once we receive the questionnaire back, we can ask more questions and determine if you would be eligible for a Von Marc puppy. If we both approve of each other, you will be put on our reservation/waiting list. Our pups are spoken for well before they are born. It's not unusual for potential clients to be on our waiting list for up to a year or more. Reservations are not honored in the order that you contact us, we decide which puppy goes to which home we deem best for them. So, you may wait for a month, or you could wait up to a year.

Please understand, we do not sell guard dogs or breeding Rottweilers; we offer wonderful pet companions and give breeding rights to show dogs which must be titled and have health certifications prior to being bred.

We co-own all of the puppies we sell until all the terms of their particular contract have been met. We are more than pleased to provide references from those who have purchased from us in the past and from fellow breeders. We base our breeding program on good ethics, our intent to maintain our breed standard and the protection of our breed against back yard breeders who breed with no thought to temperament or health standards.

Once on our list, we encourage you to keep in touch with us for updates. Once the puppies are born, we will keep you updated about the pups' progress.  We try to send out weekly photos of each puppy. The puppies are graded for structure and temperament tested at 7-8 weeks of age.  At that time, we make our final decision on which puppies will be rated as pet companions and which ones will be chosen as show quality. For this reason, we will not be able to tell you if you will be getting a puppy from any litter until they are least 7 weeks of age.

We do not take deposits on our puppies. We do not believe you should have to be "tied in" to any particular breeder because they require a non-refundable deposit. If we know we will not have a puppy for you in the timeframe in which you desire, we are more than willing to help you to find a puppy from another ethical breeder.

After spending the initial 8 weeks with the puppies, and then doing a formal evaluation of their temperament and structure, we have a very good understanding of what each puppy is like in both respects. Some people want to choose their pup themselves, but you don't know the pups' personalities as well as we do.  The best advice from most breeders is that first of all, you do your research to pick a breeder that you trust and then you trust the breeder to place the right puppy with you.  If there is no pup available, you will have the option of carrying over your reservation to a future litter.

We do not believe in "first pick." To us, there are no first, second, etc. "picks." No two homes are exactly alike; each family has a different ideal puppy. By us choosing the home for each puppy, every client gets the pup best matched to them, so everyone gets "first" pick.  

Puppies are ready to go home at 8 weeks old. When you come to pick up your puppy, don't expect to breeze in and out in 15 minutes. This process takes time. Even though you will have received a contract prior to this date and have had time to ask any questions about it, we will once again go over the contract to make sure you fully understand your obligations (and our commitment) to it.

Our relationship doesn't end once you take your new puppy home with you.  We will be available to answer questions, enjoy your brags and funny stories and provide assistance for the lifetime of your dog.  We hope you will keep in touch with us for as long as your Von Marc companion is with you.
