Frequently Asked Questions...

 

 

 

 

Are you a certified breeder?

Yes, we are certified by the American Kennel Club with an additional Bred with H.E.A.R.T. responsible breeder certification.

​

How do I start the process of purchasing a puppy from you?

To begin the process, you must first fill out the short questionnaire and contact information located on the home page with any specific questions or concerns you may have. Then, once you made your final decision you can schedule a time to speak with us over Video Chat. During the call, you will get to see the puppy you are currently interested in, as well as allowing us time to get to know you better and make sure you will provide the best possible home for one of our pups. To schedule a video chat please see the BOOK VIRTUAL INTERVIEW PAGE.

 

Are all of your puppies AKC Registered?

Yes! All of our puppies are AKC registered.

​

What is the difference between Full and Limited Breeding Rights?

Full AKC registration simply means that one of our puppies is being sold with full breeding rights, and any puppies produced, when he/she is mated to another full AKC-registered French Bulldog, are eligible for AKC registration.

Limited AKC-registered puppies are sold without any breeding rights. The AKC recognizes these Frenchies as purebred French Bulldogs and they can be entered into many AKC events. All of the French Bulldog pups that we sell with limited AKC registration are intended as pets only, with the understanding that the new owner will be neutering or spaying the young adult Frenchie before 12 months of age, which will make them a better pet with reduced risks for any health issues. If they are not neutered by their first birthday, it is a violation of our contract and any puppies which would be produced from a mating of this dog with any other dog would be ineligible for AKC registration and subject to a fine.

​

Does my puppy have to be spayed or neutered?

Yes! If you do not pay for full AKC breeding rights you are required to sign a Spay/Neuter contract. All puppies not intended for breeding must be fixed by the age of 1 year and proof must be submitted to iconicfrenchiesllc@gmail.com.

 

At what age do you allow the puppies to go home?

Puppies will not be ready to go to their forever homes until 10-12 weeks of age. We will very rarely make an exception and allow a puppy to go home at 8 weeks of age if all milestones are met. As well as the understanding that the puppy will only have one set of vaccines instead of two. 

 

What are your accepted methods of payment?

We accept payments via Venmo, Apple Pay, Zelle, and Paypal. As well as cash, or personal checks. ***If paying with a personal check, it will need to clear through the bank before you are able to pick up the puppy.***

 

Do you require a deposit to hold a puppy?

Yes! A deposit of $500 is required to reserve a puppy until they are ready for it's forever home. 

 

Will my deposit get applied to the purchase price of the puppy?

Yes, the deposit is applied to the total purchase price of the puppy.

 

Will my puppy come with a Health Guarantee?

Iconic Frenchies LLC guarantees that each puppy has been certified as healthy by our licensed veterinarian. Each puppy will also come with a health warranty that is good through one year of age. This warranty covers fatal and life-altering congenital diseases. 

 

I'm not local, but would you deliver the puppy to me?

We have hand-delivered puppies to their new owners for an additional cost that would cover our gas, as well as a sitter to care for any additional puppies as well our own dogs that will be left at home. 

 

Do we ship puppies?

We have several very responsible carriers we use who will fly your puppy as a carry-on and deliver him/her to you in person at your nearest major airport. They get to ride in luxury in a temperature-controlled cabin with all the other passengers.

 

How do you socialize your puppies?

Every puppy born with us is raised with care in our home from day one.

Each pup is free to run around our house when supervised or their large playpen with plenty of toys. We expose every puppy to different lights and sounds by providing play gyms with different interactive toys. 

Staying with their mother for the 8-10 weeks they’ll be here after birth gives them the strength and good health they’ll need to be well developed dogs in their future. And of course, growing up playing around in the yard with other dogs and having the love from us, their first human family, gives them the positive influence that encourages their little personalities.

​
