Purchasing A Puppy
We are so thrilled that you are interested in a State of Grace puppy!
Please make sure to read our Terms and Conditions regarding the purchase of a State of Grace puppy before filling out a puppy questionnaire. Once you have read and understood our terms and conditions, you can then fill out our puppy questionnaire to be considered a forever home for a State of Grace puppy.
​
WE NO LONGER KEEP A WAITLIST.
You can fill out a questionnaire at any time and your information will be saved.
Once we announce a breeding on our social media pages and website, fill out a questionnaire (if you haven't already) and let us know of your interest in that particular litter.
Families that have been on our waitlist will be given first priority over new applications.
Please note, filling out an application does not guarantee you a puppy from any particular litter.
It is to give us an idea of your family and lifestyle to help us in placing the ideal puppy in your home.
We currently require a non refundable deposit of $100 towards the purchase price to get on a litter list (if the breeding is unsuccessful or we are unable to provide you with a puppy, we will rightfully refund your deposit).
​
Once the puppies have been born and we have your puppy preference available, another $500 will be due to reserve your puppy.
The remaining balance of the total price of the puppy will be due when puppies are 6 weeks of age. We prefer this as it allows us to focus on you and any questions you may have when you arrive on puppy pick up day.
​
Puppy placement is done between 7-8 weeks after we have evaluated the litter for potential keepers.
Along with your puppy questionnaire, we also use the Volhard Aptitude Test to test the puppies at 7 weeks and get a better idea of certain behavioral traits and help us in placing puppies in their homes.
​
If for whatever reason you need to back out on a puppy after submitting the $500 deposit and/or the remaining balance, we will refund you your money after we have been able to place your puppy in a new home. If we have not been able to place your puppy after 8 weeks and additional fees occur (such as their next round of vaccinations), that cost will be deducted from your refund.
​
Puppies go home between 8-9 weeks.
​
We base the price of puppies on stud fees, pedigrees, and titles. On average, our puppies cost around $2900.
All of our puppies are sold on Limited AKC Registration.
​
Your puppy will come with:
Limited AKC Registration
Microchip
Clear Bill of Health by a Licensed Veterinarian
Health Records from Vet Visits
Age Appropriate Vaccinations
Age Appropriate De-Wormings
State of Grace Embroidered Logo Tote Bag
Probiotic Samples
A Days Worth of Current Puppy Food
Lifetime Breeder Support
​
Puppies are sold in the order deposits are received.
State of Grace Labs reserves the right to first pick male and female of our litters.
​
Deposits can be made via check to 'State of Grace Labs' or through PayPal ( PayPal email: stateofgracelabs@gmail.com )
Picking Up Your Puppy
Puppies are available for pick up between 8-9 weeks old.
We will contact you to let you know the specific dates and figure out which date works best for you.
​
If you are unable to pick up the puppy on one of those designated dates, a $25 boarding fee per day is required.
​
We do offer a puppy nanny service if needed for families out of state who would prefer their puppy be flown to them.
This would of course add on an additional charge for flight tickets, puppy nanny fee, and pet travel fee (which varies per airline).
Please let us know if this is something you'd be interested in.
We do not ship puppies in cargo
​
We also offer Airport Pickup where we will meet you at Hartsfield Jackson International Airport in Atlanta
and bring the puppy to you for an additional $50 fee.
This would need to be done on one of the designated pickup dates.
