NeverendingDog Project

Preservation of the White Swiss Shepherd

PURCHASE A PUPPY FROM THE NEVERENDINGDOG PROJECT

I am committed to give the NeverendingDog Project puppies, like the White Swiss Shepherd puppies I breed, the best start of life they possible can get.

This starts with breeding only with healthy parents. And make sure mom gets all additional nutrition and supplements necessary for the pregnancy, that the whelping environment is clean and safe. That mom experiences as little stress as possible during pregnancy, whelping and taking care of the pups.

Our pups leave the litter when 8 weeks old. Puppy pick up can only be in person because I want to meet in person before I hand over one of my precious puppies.

SOCIALIZATION

When the puppies are born we start with socializing the puppies right away. First through touch (ENS) and smell (ESI).

ENS/ESI with Venture (A - litter White Swiss Shepherd - klick here)

When they are around three weeks of age, eyes and ears are open by then, we start bringing in more and more stimuli like: the other dogs and cats (week 2/3), loud noises (week 3), first toys (week 3), obstacles like a tunnel (week 4), hygiene (week 4), (weather permits) first time outside (3/4), visitors (week 4), children (week 5) get used to different surfaces, different rooms in the house (week 5), car rides (week 6), visit vet (week 6), crate & potty training (week 6), (if applicable) Volhard puppy test (week 7).

Part of the socialization will be the weekend puppy visits once the puppies are about 4 weeks old. We invite you to come and visit with the puppies as often as possible, and also with the older dogs and with us.

We also train the puppies some basic cues before they go home, like sit, touch, look and calm leash walking. But because our pups leave the litter when around 8 weeks old they won’t be perfect at it:-)

PUPPY APPLICATION

It is up to you to make sure that these precious puppies learn (force free) every day so that they are able to strive in life. They deserve it! You can show your interest in one of our puppies by filling out our questionnaire. I'll contact you asap once I've received your application.

Please know that I don't sell my puppies to buyers who (and this list is not limited):

are gone from home most of the day, even if it's only for a couple of days a week. Unless there is some one looking after the dog.
are you looking for a dog with characteristics contrary of what the characteristics of the parents are. So if you want a dog that does not bark, please look further because shepherds are bred to alarm and bark when herding sheep. So they bark on occasion.
are not going to pick up the puppy in person. Meeting you at least once in person is for me a MUST.

note: I’ll try to send you a reply within 48 hours. If you not have received one by then, please check your spam inbox and/or email me.

PRICING

Pricing per pup depends on who the parents are and the registry the pup will be registered with (FCI/CKC). And if you want a companion dog with or without breeding rights. For a NeverendingDog Project companion/pet puppy without breeding rights the purchase price starts at $1,750.

Two puppies per litter, a female and a male, will be selected to breed with for the next outcross generation (puppy with breeding right). For these puppies I will be looking for a co-ownership home.

Looking for families that like to purchase a puppy in co-ownership. Please call or email me for the possibilities.

A $500 non refundable deposit (per bank wire) is due at time of reservation. Only when we have received the amount you will be put on the reservation list. This deposit is included within the total purchase price for a puppy. The deposit officially holds your puppy spot and the remaining total will be due when puppies are 6 weeks old. Deposits hold your puppy or puppy placing on the reservation list and is honored for one year.

Prices include: micro chipping, first vaccines, de-worming, registration with FCI (FCPR) (when applicable and when old enough to proof that they are within the standards) or CKC, Volhard puppy aptitude test, bill of health, contract and 'to go bag' with favorite toy, part of 'litter blanket', tips for socialization, puppy food and more.

Buyer will pick the puppy up at (8) eight weeks of age. Buyer will have through that weeks upcoming weekend to pick up their puppy. Starting the following Monday a $100 per day boarding fee will be applied until pickup. Training and care of the puppy will be continued during that time.

IMPORTANT: Not paying in full by the date will mean that you have forfeited your puppy and deposit. It will also mean that you have relieved us of any further obligation to you and we will be free to sell the puppy to the next available buyer.

If we need to hold your puppy for any amount of time after the pickup period, it must be understood that your puppy, vet costs and any boarding fees must be paid in full before picking up the puppy.
