Deposits
- All Deposits/Payments are NON-REFUNDABLE**
- Deposits are transferred to future litters, whenever available.
- Deposits are accepted in PayPal FREINDS AND FAMILY ONLY, Venmo, Square or Facebook Pay.
- QUOTED PRICES ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE AT ANY TIME! We are constantly improving our lines, enhancing testing and bettering the breed. This means at any time prices are subject to raise. If you place a deposit in 2021, the prices for 2022 are subject to increase. We reserve this right and you acknowledge this right by passing on litters for an extended time frame from placing your deposit.
Payment
- All sales are FINAL (no refunds even if you return the puppy). See Contract for more information.
- There are NO CASH REFUNDS
- We will exchange your puppy if it has a life threatening genetic defect within its first 12-24 months of life (as outlined in the health guarantee)
- We do not guarantee against common problems in puppies such as hernias, cryptorchidism (pet buyers), parasites etc. (as outlined in the health guarantee)
- Payment is due either at pick up in CASH ONLY or by 6 weeks of age via Bank Transfer or Venmo or Square App. No exceptions! We will not under any circumstances take checks, money orders, PayPal etc for final payment.
Pick Up
- Pick up dates are to be scheduled in advance. Puppies can leave at 8 weeks of age. We like to schedule and reserve pick up dates when the puppies are between 4 and 6 weeks as we have families coming from all over to pick up.
- Plan to pick up your puppy in the Mason City/Clear Lake, IA area. Due to the extended care needed for moms and puppies, at this time we do not drive more than 2 hours to meet buyers. Plan ahead to make the trip to Mason City/Clear Lake when your puppy turns 8 weeks of age.
- If pick up cannot be scheduled by the time the puppy is 8 weeks and 5 days old - a fee of $50/day will be charged for boarding, training, veterinary appointments, feed, vaccinations, de-wormings etc. Please plan accordingly.
Out of State Clients
- Due to Covid-19 we STRONGLY suggest you fly or drive here to pick up your puppy. Transport is unpredictable at this time. It is alot cheaper and easier for out of state clients to book a flight to DSM or Minneapolis and carry your puppy back to your state with you.
- Quotes for our Personal Flight Nanny Service are subject to increase and change if flights are missed, extra puppy fees are charged etc. We have no control over these costs and you resume the responsiblity to pay promptly if the Extra Flight Fees are charged while in transit. This could cause flights to inrease to up to $800.
- We again highly suggest you drive to Mason City or fly yourself into DSM or Minneapolis.
Breeders and Breeding Rights
- To those who have been approved for breeding rights, do know that pricing and full right fees are subject to change if you sit on the Waiting List longer than 12 months. As you are aware, we are constantly enhancing our lines to better the breed and with better quality comes more expensive breeding stock and higher prices. If you pass within the year you place a deposit you understand that we may not have any puppies within that price range in the future.
- Full rights costs are subject to increase at every year's end as we analyze our current lines, costs to obtain them and compare to the current market value. You know the market changes year to year and so do prices. We will honor the prices originally quoted if purchase is made in the 12 month time frame but if you keep passing and your deposit rolls over then you assume the risk of higher pricing.
- We are NO LONGER Embarking puppies for choosing purposes. Due to COVID-19 embark results are taking 6-10 weeks to get back. We believe that it is not fair to ask us to hold a puppy that long waiting on results which can lead you to back out on an 8-12 week old puppy, leaving them homeless. You know this is the critical bonding stage for a young puppy. We could never ask another breeder to do that for us so we in turn we ask to not be tasked with this either.
- We WILL however accept Gensol, Animal Genetics and Paw Print genetics swabs to be sent prior to birth for us to test for individual desired genes. We will test within the first week of life as results will be back before 5 weeks of age. These costs are to be paid by you and you must send them prior to delivery.
We ourselves are on Waitling Lists with other breeders. We understand their programs and polices can change at any time. We understand breeders need a very specific thing for their program but we also understand things are not guaranteed and how "at risk" breeding is in many aspects. We believe in doing unto others as you would like them done unto you. We put ourselves in the shoes of both breeder and buyer as we handle our policy changes. We respect your program changes and enhancements as we work together to better this breed, please respect ours.
Right of Refusal
- Clover Ridge Pomskies, LLC reserves the right to deny the sale of a puppy at any time to any buyer. We have the responsibility to find perfect and forever homes for our puppies.
- If for some reason, for any reason deemed fit to us that you would not be a good fit for our puppies, we reserve the right to cancel the sale at any time.
