I understand that sending this application does not automatically entitle me to a dog. I understand that this application is just a beginning step in the interview process.
All of our companion or pet puppies are sold with AKC Limited Registration and spay/neuter contracts. This means that the dog is registered with AKC, however none of the offspring are eligible for registration. A dog with a Limited Registration as well as a spayed or neutered dog can compete in all AKC events except in the Conformation classes (breed ring).
Please review and then submit this completed questionnaire. We will
contact you via Email as soon as possible regarding the availability of a Stellar puppy.
Sincerely,
STELLAR GOLDEN RETRIEVERS
