This Questionnaire MUST be filled out before you will be considered for one of our puppies. I know this is a lot of information, but we want to make 100% sure that our puppies are only going to the best homes with families that are going to love them the way they deserve to be. We also want to make sure that new families are prepared and know what to expect with a bully baby. Please answer all questions - there are no wrong answers, it just lets me get to know you and your family. Please copy and paste from here. Once you have completed it, please e-mail it to bullybabies@ymail.com. Thank you!

All of our puppies come with, and are priced with, AKC Limited Registration. Limited Registration means this puppy is a pet only and will come with a spay/neuter contract.
Full Registration means the puppy will have breeding or showing rights. This is an additional fee to the quoted price of a puppy. Full Registration is not available on all puppies or to all people. Full Registration can be available to responsible owners.

I feel like I shouldn't have to ask the following questions, but the last several years have made me realize that not everyone knows what it is like to have a puppy in the home. Please read these and seriously consider if you and your family are ready for a new puppy.
Puppies are not born knowing how to behave, it is up to YOU to properly socialize and train your puppy.
Puppies can be ornery and playful, they like to nip and bite until YOU, their owner, teaches them what is acceptable and what is not.
Puppies are not aggressive - they are playful and need direction.
Do you agree with the above 3 sentences?
Do you understand that puppies bite, nip, growl and bark?
Do you understand that puppies have VERY sharp teeth and a playful nip can break the skin?
Are you and your family (especially children) prepared and willing to have a rambunctious, chewing, biting, running, chasing puppy in your home?
Do you plan on being a responsible owner that will give your puppy the time, attention and training that it needs to become a well-behaved dog?
If you have children - do you agree to not only teach your puppy to respect them, but to also teach your children to respect the puppy?
Please re-enter your e-mail address.
Please give me any additional information you care to share.
Thank you for taking the time to complete this for us.
