Rottweiler Puppy Timeline
A $500 deposit is required to hold your puppy.
Guidelines:
1. We will provide puppy pictures as outlined in our timeline. Please do not ask for individual pictures of the puppies.
2. If you have questions, put a list of all of your questions in one email and send it to us. Most of your questions will be answered in our puppy update emails. One line emails over and over are very time consuming.
3. Puppy deposits are no longer transferable after the puppies are 2 weeks old.
