Getting to Know You
These questions are to customize the call so I know what to discuss. More information about what the intention of the questions can be found below.
I breed for health and temperament.
I want everyone to get their dream puppy.
A Berrybrook Baby is worth the wait!

I will have lots of opportunities for puppies. I only breed mamas in season if I have paid deposits. There are times a mama has more puppies than expected and I will have spots open but they only go to folks with deposits waiting.
These questions help me to know how to customize our phone conversation. Keeping a puppy healthy before its had all its vaccines is more of a challenge if you live in a high rise and you don't have a private backyard. Can it be done? Yes! This information is going to help me, set you up for success! I will also use this questionnaire to help match the puppies personality, energy level and the family situation to the right home for the puppy. I do take into consideration the buyers preferences on sex, color and size but I cannot always guarantee that combination for every litter. I wish I could order them like a pizza, but genetics are a roll of the dice for each puppy. We are pretty successful in heart matching the families color and pattern along with temperament. I try to breed to my wait list knowing what the families are wanting by knowing the genes the parents carry. I wouldn't put a shy puppy into a home with four young children and I wouldn't put a dog that loves training and is driven into the home of a retired couple that wasn't active. If the puppy that is allocated to the buyer isn't what they are looking for then I can move the person to the next litter and hopefully everyone will be happy. That is my goal, to make people and puppies happy! You can read the comments on our social media accounts and see that the process works. I also look for people that understand we spend every day with these puppies and have a strong understanding of who they are. Buyers wanting to choose their puppy by waiting for one to run up to them might just mean they smell like the chicken sandwich they had for lunch, and it isn't necessarily a love connection.
