The Den
Litter Policies & Guidelines
THE BASICS
1 | Prefix and/or suffix is determined by which of our bloodlines are used, or if other kennel's dogs have been included.
2 | Hellhound always reserves the right to reclaim a puppy for inactivity or violation of our terms.
3 | New owners are, pre/suffix excluded, allowed to choose registration names in accordance with litter theme.
4 | Our dogs and puppies are never to be used as a base or template for another dog or litter.
5 | Full payment is expected immediately after selecting a puppy.
6 | Puppies will come registered with their respective breed clubs, if available.
7 | An additional charge will be added for breeds with health testing available as we believe this is mandatory.
LITTER FAQ
Pick Order
We always place active, responsible kennels and breeders above other applicants.
Limited & Full Registration
Only Full Registration dogs may be bred and we place additional contractual obligations on these dogs to ensure proper breeding.
Instagram & Tumblr Kennels
We will never sell a puppy to a kennel that's main activity is through Instagram/Tumblr, kennels that do frequent flash litters, or otherwise demonstrate behavior that we believe has too many similarities to a puppy mill.
Seasonal Prefix & Suffixes
Hellhound employs two seasonal affixes: Witch's and Wicked's; these are used for Autumn and surrounding All Hallow's Eve litters.
