We know from experience that this is a wonderful time for you. Adding a Havanese puppy to your life means increasing the amount of joy and love for years to come!
AKC Limited Registration
Your Happy Tail Companions puppy is guaranteed to be an AKC registered purebred Havanese. You will receive your pup's AKC limited registration papers at puppy pickup. .
As a responsible hobby breeder, our adopted puppies come with limited AKC registration, meaning he or she may not be used for breeding and must be spayed or neutered at the appropriate age. Please refer to your veterinarian and send Happy Tail Companions evidence of spay/neuter completion within one year of ownership.
Adoption Fees
A non-refundable 50% FEE will hold your puppy or your place on our adoption list.
Adoption Fee Final Payment
Final payment must be made prior to your puppy turning 6 weeks old unless paying in cash on day of pickup. No other payment method can be accepted on pick up day.
If your puppy is passed the age of 8 weeks at time of adoption, full payment takes the place of the initial placement/hold fee and must clear prior to picking up your new puppy. If paying cash at pickup, the standard $500 FEE must clear prior to puppy pickup and final cash payment.

If you are unable to care for or keep this puppy, you may return him/her with all veterinary records and registration papers at your expense. In this case, no refund will be given. Should a veterinarian find a life threatening hereditary or congenital disorder within 3 years of birth, you must supply two veterinarian’s written reports, on their stationary, within 7 days of diagnosis. All vet bills incurred by buyer during this time will be the sole responsibility of the buyer. Happy Tail Companions reserves the right to have any diagnosis verified by a veterinarian of our choice. Upon our veterinarian's findings and prognosis, your puppy may then be returned to us, at your expense, along with registration papers and all veterinarian records, Happy Tail Companions will replace the animal with an animal of like breed and value within 1 year from return date. This timeframe is necessary to allow us to schedule an opening. Failure to do the above will null and void any guarantee on the part of Happy Tail Companions. Please understand that such replacement is only valid when death or health problems are attributed directly to a life-threatening genetic disorder and not due to injury, contagious illness or neglect. In the tragic event of the puppy's death, a necropsy must be performed at the owner’s expense to determine the cause of death. Death must have been attributed to the diagnosed hereditary or congenital disorder. Please understand that all guarantees are invalid 3 years after birth and this warranty applies only to the original family/owner.
Because it is important to Happy Tail Companions that you and your puppy are happy, you are given a time frame of 1 full week to determine if this puppy will be a good fit. In the unlikely event that you need to return the puppy within the first 10 days, you agree to forfeit 1/2 the purchase price. This offer is applicable within the first week of adoption only. It is your responsibility to return the puppy, along with registration papers and any veterinarian records to Happy Tail Companions. Please remember that a puppy is a great responsibility. He or she will love you unconditionally and deserves the same in return. If, at any time, you are not able to keep, or properly care for this pet, you may return him or her, accompanied by this contract, all documentation, veterinary records, and their AKC registration. No refund will be given in this circumstance, but your havanese will always have a home.
