FAQs

when can we bring our iw puppy home?

We don’t send our puppies home with you until they reach around 12 weeks of age.

will Tala’s IWs co-own the hound?

Unlike many breeders, we do not require a co-owning agreement. Your puppy is yours.

We do require that an agreement is signed that you will surrender the dog to us if, for whatever reason, you can no longer keep them. We understand that circumstances change.

We will claim responsibility for our puppies their whole lives.

Can we bring our friends and family to see our new puppy at visitation?

Absolutely!

Because we do conduct visitations in our home, we do ask that you keep the number of visitors to 5 people or less. Our daughter is immuno-compromised and a large help in caring for the puppies, so we ask that everyone respects whatever rules we set for our home.

Do you require puppies to be neutered or spayed?

It differs from circumstance to circumstance. We generally do not enforce spaying or neutering but again, it varies from home to home.


What do you require of us?

From approved applicants, we ask a few things.

The first is access to your new puppy’s vet records throughout their lives. This helps add to our research for maintaining and potentially improving the health of our lines.

And second; an agreement between you the buyer, and us, that your puppy will be returned to us in the event of a change of circumstances on your end.
