If you are looking to
purchase a puppy you can call the Puppy Listing number, you can also contact
Club members listed in the Breeders Directory .
The puppy list number is a recorded message and the pups listed on it may
change at any time so you may need to continue calling it every couple of
days to find out if there are any puppies available.
The number for the Puppy
List is (03) 5977 7758
If you are a club member who has puppies
they wish to list then read
the following information.
The Club Puppy Service is available to
financial members of the club with a minimum 12 month membership period.
Interstate litters are to be listed at the
discretion of the club.
This service is a point of contact only and
not a screening service of prospective new owners. It is up to the Club
Member selling the puppy to assess the suitability of the prospective
purchaser as a Stafford owner and to negotiate terms of sale.
The advantage of selling via the Club is
that in general people who contact the Club have made enquiries on the
breed, spoken to the VCA, who have in turn referred them to our service.
There is a charge of seven dollars per puppy to list them on this service.
And for this amount you also get a puppy kit. This contains general
information on the club and the breed including diet sheets, obedience
information, etc.
Your name and contact phone number are
simply placed on the listing for 3 weeks, if puppies are not sold, you can
re-list your puppies.
It is your responsibility as a breeder to
provide this backup information to the new purchaser even if you do not
directly list your puppies on the service.
These days many puppies are sold via word
of mouth from within the club and you should still provide handbooks etc. to
the new purchasers. If you wish to list your litter or purchase puppy kits
then please forward details on the form in the back of your Bulletin.
Members who use this
listing service can you please inform
Carol when your puppies have been sold.
