Paying Off Your Puppy

Our waitlist opens once we announce a planned breeding and estimated timeline.

A $100 non-refundable waitlist deposit reserves your place in line for that breeding.

Your waitlist deposit is transferable to another Royal Pacific Kennels litter for up to 24 months from the original deposit date.

The waitlist closes once pregnancy has been confirmed and the litter is fully reserved.

After puppies are born, families on our waitlist are contacted first.

To reserve your pick, an additional $400 puppy deposit is required, bringing your total deposit to $500.

If you are not on the waitlist, a $500 non-refundable puppy deposit is required to reserve any available puppy.

Puppy selections typically begin between 5 and 7 weeks of age.

At the time you select your puppy, your total payments must equal 50% of the puppy’s purchase price.

For example, if your puppy is priced at $2,000, you must have $1,000 paid by selection day. If you’ve already paid the $500 deposit, the remaining $500 would be due at that time.

If you reserve a puppy after selections have already taken place, your $500 deposit is still required, and the remaining balance is due by 8 weeks of age, unless your puppy is enrolled in our Royal Start Program.

Our puppies are ready to join their forever families at 8 weeks of age.

Unless your puppy is enrolled in our Royal Start Program, the remaining balance must be paid in full before or at pickup. Puppies will not leave Royal Pacific Kennels until payment has been received in full.

Need a little more time?

We offer a Royal Start Program for approved families who would like additional time to pay for their puppy.

With this program:

• Your puppy remains in our care while payments are made.
• The puppy must be paid in full by 4 months (16 weeks) of age.
• Puppies enrolled in this program do not go home until the balance has been paid in full.
• Boarding, training, and continued care are provided while your puppy remains with us.

Space in our Royal Train Program is limited and is offered at the discretion of Royal Pacific Kennels.

If your puppy has already been paid in full but you need to delay pickup beyond the agreed date, boarding may be available depending on space.

Please refer to our Boarding section on the Q&A page for current rates and policies.
