Doing math (sound of an old cash register in background)... counting on fingers... In computer voice saying "it does not compute"... 10 pups, 2 to one buyer, 1 to another = 3, subtracted from 10 = 7... So 2 girls and one boy left = 7? I'm so confused.... :confused:

Lol, I'm keeping two and also going to keep the runt for a few extra weeks.

Forgot to mention also.....

You can chip your own dogs. We chip ours, its $8 and that includes lifetime registration. Our vet wanted $75 per dog to chip plus the $30 per dog office visit fee. We decided to do it ourselves. I'm not a cheap skate but im not paying over $300 for something i can do myself for less then $30

We used Pro ID mini....it's what our vet uses(i saw all the pamphlets) and it is universal read by all scanners.
5 pack is $38.75

Is that from a free registration site? Because their website say's it costs $22.95 for it.

Hmm, AKC has chips, seem to be double the price for them though. But it also seems they register any chip for about $5 less. Thinking I'll do that then, the Pro ID MINI Chip and then tell people to go to the AKC to register so it's less. Otherwise, I would charge more for the pups and then all is included, but I rather not do that and some people don't care about a chip. So less potential loss if I let them choose where to register and if at all. Would be nice if one owner could register many chips for just the one fee. =/

Looks like they changed it since i did mine. I got the mini chip and it was included now they have buddy id with registration, $17.95ea with the 25 pack which does include the chip and registration both. It will come with a card, you log in and put in the pups info and breeder info. Then the new owner gets the card and they log in and add their info. Personally i like mini pro because it is "the" national chip registry but AKC is cheaper a bit. $15.50 per chip including registration in the 25 pack. So really up to you or the buyer i guess. Alternatively you could sell them unchipped and let the new owner pick. I have seen more then one breeder ad/site that stated "chip fee - $20 on request" or something along those lines.

In any case the pups look very cute!

Weighed and dewormed a day early, have the fencing people coming tomorrow and I need to also fix up the pastures for the 4 breeding groups. So no time for much of anything.
