How long is your waitlist? OR how long will my wait be?

Great question! First, our waitlist isn't per litter, usually, but in general. We put all of your must haves into our waitlist, and it's organized first by application date then coat type, sex, color, pattern and then size. When we have a litter we start at the top and match puppies based on everyone's must haves. If you say you only want a female and we have a male, we will not contact you. Our best guess at the moment is that we'll have available puppies in our Spring litters if you're open. However, if you are looking for something very specific the wait may be longer. The wait depends on what the people in front of you on the list choose to do (the most difficult to predict) and what we get (how many puppies, color, pattern, sex, hair length) in a given litter, both out of our control. We know what to expect in each litter but never what, exactly we'll get. Honestly, people are the hardest part to predict because often times when we reach out, they will choose to pass or come off the list. This is why it is SO important that you stay in contact with us and communicate if anything changes. We base our pairings on what the waitlist wants. The more specific your request / want the longer it will take. The more open you are to hair length, sex, pattern, size and color, the quicker it will be. We can never guarantee timing unfortunately. Right now creams and dapples are very popular and our wait for those is probably longer. What we can guarantee is that our puppies are worth the wait!
