Getting a Highlander Dog or Puppy

Home Page About Us Announcements Photo Album  Favorites Sledding

Buyer Requirements:

• We ask that our buyers do their research on the Siberian Husky breed.  This breed of dog is not for everyone.  They are active and inquisitive.  They require lots of human interaction and do not do well when left alone for long periods of time.  They WILL find ways to get your attention and not always in a pleasurable manner.  There are many web sites on the internet that offer excellent information on the breed - (check AKC standard). 
• Buyers need a fenced yard that is secure and an area where their Siberian Husky can get adequate exercise.
• We encourage our buyers to invest the time in taking their puppies to obedience classes.  This helps ensure that the dog learns the rules of being a family member.
• We ask that our buyers keep in contact with us.  We love updates on how our puppies have grown up.  We encourage our buyers to call us if they ever have questions about your dog or it's family history.  This also helps us continually evaluate the success of our breeding program.
• All buyers are required to complete a questionnaire before purchasing a Siberian Husky from Highlander Siberians. We do this in an attempt to ensure that the right match is made, and our dogs can live long, healthy and happy lives.

Age:

Vaccination & Worming :

Our puppies receive an initial vaccination prior to going home.  We give shots at 8, 11, 14 and 17 weeks. After a pup is a year old, it will require an annual booster. Our puppies are also wormed prior to going home. We worm all puppies with Nemex II.  We use Heartguard Plus, a once-a-month pill, to control Heartworm and other internal parasites.  Depending on the time of year, we usually start our pups on this medication at 9 weeks of age.

Health Guarantee:

The parents of our puppies are always in superb health. We OFA certify (see Orthopedic Foundation for Animals web site) all of our dogs.

Agreements

I am posting samples of our sales agreements in the hope that someone thinking of buying a dog from an internet ad, without a sales agreement, will think again.

Below you will find links to our sample pet/companion agreement, show agreement, as well as to our stud dog agreement. These agreements are designed to protect you, as the buyer; us as the sellers; and to ensure the welfare of the dogs. If you would like clarification about anything in an agreement, or if you wish to know WHY we have a particular requirement in an agreement, please email us by using the link at the bottom of the page.

These agreements are not 'written in stone'. They are always evolving based upon our experiences. If you would like to explore other terms in any agreement, again - email us. We do not promise that we will change them, but we will always listen to your point of view and will give it careful consideration.

Our agreements for show prospects/adults are individually designed based upon the age and training of the dog, as well as the preferences of us and the Buyer. Should you wish to inquire about a show prospect, please email us. Thanks, and have a wonderful day!
