The Stasia’s CutiePoo Experience

FUR COLOR DISCLAIMER:

At Stasia’s CutiePoos, we take immense pride in raising healthy, happy Cockapoos. These wonderful dogs are living, breathing animals—not something that can be selected from a catalog for the exact shade of their fur. While we understand the desire for a particular coat color, it’s important to remember that Cockapoos carry the poodle gene, which can cause their fur to change or fade in ways that are sometimes unpredictable as they mature.

We cannot guarantee a specific color, but what we do guarantee is a well-cared-for, healthy dog with a loving temperament. If color is your primary concern, we may not be the right breeder for you. Our focus is and always will be on the health and well-being of our dogs. We invite those who share our commitment to the health and care of these wonderful animals to join our extended family of happy Cockapoo owners.

SIZE DISCLAIMER:

Similarly to the disclaimer above, we do not guarantee the full-grown adult size of our dogs. We can estimate adult size based on the size of the parents, but the Cocker Spaniel gene can influence the adult size, potentially resulting in a dog that is larger than either of its parents.

We appreciate your excitement about meeting our adorable puppies! To ensure the well-being of our furry friends, here are some guidelines for puppy visitation:

1. Timing and Vaccinations:

• Visits are allowed after the puppies reach 6 weeks of age and receive their first vaccinations.
• This precaution is crucial to safeguard the health of our pups, as young ones can be susceptible to illnesses.

2. Hygiene Practices:

• Upon arrival, kindly remove your shoes and wash your hands.
• While this may seem meticulous, it’s a necessary step to prevent potential illnesses, especially given the number of families wanting to visit.

3. Precautions for Visitors:

• Please refrain from visiting other breeders, pet stores, dog parks, or friends who are unwell before coming to our home.
• If you, or someone accompanying you, is feeling unwell, we kindly ask you to reschedule your visit.
• Human ailments, like strep, can be transmitted to our dogs, and we prioritize the safety of our puppies.

For Distant Buyers:

• If you’re unable to travel for a visit, don’t worry! We’ll keep you thoroughly updated.
• Expect numerous pictures, videos, and regular updates on the puppy of your choice, allowing you to witness and know all about them from afar!

All puppies are ready for pickup between 8 and 9 weeks. If you are not able to pick up your new puppy within that 1 week window, we’re happy to accommodate under certain conditions:

1. Pricing:

• If we are able to board your pup past the pickup window, it is a non-negotiable fee of $100/day.

2. Limited Availability:

• We can board up to two pups at a time, depending on our schedule.
• Availability is on a first-come, first-served basis and aligns with our capacity and training commitments.

3. Training Focus:

• Boarding prioritizes training needs rather than following the traditional waiting list order.
• During their stay, your pup will receive one-on-one nighttime sleep training in our bedroom, transitioning from the nursery.
• Days are filled with play, cuddles, manners training, potty training, and outdoor playtime—mirroring the ideal environment in your home.

4. No Housebreaking Guarantees:

• We don’t guarantee full housebreaking during the boarding period.
• Each home environment varies, and it may take time for the pup to adjust once back home.
• However, we’re committed to providing the best training, focusing on potty training, leash walking, and basic commands like sit, lay down, and come.

5. Vet Visits:

• Any additional vet visits required for vaccines during the boarding period will be at your expense.

Our Promise:

• While we can’t guarantee complete housebreaking, we promise to put our best efforts into training and preparing your pup for their return home.

Please Note:

• Boarding availability is subject to our schedule.
• Training focus takes precedence over the traditional waiting list.
• Vet visits for vaccines during this time will incur additional expenses.

RETURN POLICY:

We understand that sometimes things don’t go as planned, so we offer a 1-week grace period for you to assess the compatibility of your pup with your family. If, within this period, you find that it’s not the right fit, you may return your puppy. However, please note:

• Returning within 7 days incurs a 50% forfeiture of your total purchase price.
• Familiarize yourself with our Terms of Sale and Health Guarantee before making any payments.
• Returns will not be accepted on the basis of fur color preference after taking a dog home.

ONGOING SUPPORT:

We are committed to the lifelong well-being of our pups. If, at any point, you are unable to keep your puppy, they are always welcome back in our home. However, after the initial 1-week grace period, returns do not qualify for a refund.

BUSINESS PRACTICES:

Our priority is the emotional and physical health of our puppies. Hence, we reserve the right to refuse business if we believe it won’t result in the perfect match or if a working relationship seems unfeasible.

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or need further clarification. We look forward to a happy and harmonious partnership with our forever families!
