We are committing to a 11-15 year relationship with you and your family. We want to make sure it will work out the best for everyone, especially the puppy. The cost of a Ferncroft Chinook puppy is $3000 dollars. A deposit of $1000 will be required if a puppy is available for you. Cash or personal checks are accepted for deposit.

Unlike a pet store or shelter, you will not be able to pick a specific puppy, but will be offered the pup whose personality and prospects best meets your family’s goals. This is based on weeks of observation of the litter, and a review of temperament and conformation.
Ferncroft Chinooks requires all puppy owners to have their pups screened at two years of age for hip dysplasia (using either PennHip or OFA procedures) and eyes screened for eye diseases by a certified veterinary ophthalmologist.
***The information from these exams is crucial to our future breeding decisions.
A Chinook pup requires early training with other dogs their own age to be properly socialized. All puppy owners are required to attend puppy kindergarten and a basic obedience course, using positive reinforcement techniques, taken during the first year of your puppy’s life. Proof of completion will be required.
The breed relies on the support of it’s owners who can keep a dog intact or raise a litter, to further advance the breed in numbers and genetic health. Homes which will keep either their Chinook male or female puppy intact, are continuously needed. Even one litter will help to achieve the goal of continuous success, exposure and healthy numbers for the Chinook breed.
Ferncroft Chinooks will always be available for questions, concerns, conversation and mentoring when you own a “breed potential” Chinook (this will not be known until all your Chinook’s health screens are completed by age 2).
New owners are responsible for the cost of transporting their puppy to his/her new home – which may require a person to fly out and take the puppy back as carry-on baggage. We will not allow a puppy to be shipped as cargo on any commercial carrier.
