Our Requirements

All of our Siberians are sold by contract only.  We do this to protect the dog and assure our buyers
that we stand behind all dogs bred by Rustic.

Would you agree to signing a contract?

We require that all buyers provide us with a check made payable to the American Kennel Club at the time of purchase ($15).  
Together we will complete the puppy/dog AKC registration application and/or transfer paperwork and will have the new
registration certificates mailed directly to you, the buyer.  For record keeping purposes we require the buyer to provide us with a
copy of the new registration certificate upon receipt from the AKC.

Would you agree to the AKC Registration portion of our contract?

We require all of our buyers to have CERF (eye) exams done on their Rustic Siberian at 1, 2 and 3 years of age and to provide us
with copies of all exam reports.  We will gladly advise you of upcoming CERF clinics in your area which are done at reduced cost,
usually $25.  If you choose to OFA (hips) it is a one time procedure and must be done after 2 years of age.  This is our way of
monitoring two very important health related aspects of our breeding program.

Would you agree to the CERF exams and foward the reports to us?

We strongly recommend that all puppies attend puppy obedience class (oftentimes referred to as "puppy kindergarten").  This
helps with socialization and learning manners in a structured setting.  It is also a very positive way for a puppy and his/her hew
owner to bond and sets the stage for living in harmony with one another.  We offer a $50 rebate upon completion of the 8 week
kindergarten class.  In addition,  we offer $25 for each additional 6-8 week obedience class thereafter up to $100 (4 additional
sessions beyond puppy kindergarten).

Would you be willing to fullfill the puppy kindergaten recommendation?

If no, please explain

All dogs sold as companion pets are required to be spayed/neutered by 5 months of age.  All adults are spayed/neutered prior to
going to their new homes.  Your AKC registration application will be held until a signed letter from your veterinarian , on your
veterinarians stationary,  is received stating that the spay/neuter is complete.  All AKC registration papers will have the
non-breeding  (limited registration) boxes checked prior to submission to AKC.

Do you agree to our spay/neuter requirements?

If no, please explain why?

We require our buyers to provide regular veterinary care for their Rustic Siberian.  Including, but not limited to annual health
exams, yearly heartworm screening, monthly heartworm preventative (we recommend & use Interceptor), monthly flea/tick
prevention (we recommend & use Frontline Plus), boosters of the core vaccines yearly and rabies vaccination every 3 years (or
as required by your own state & local laws), and any other Veterinary Care to be administered promptly as needed.

Do you agree to our veterinary requirement?

If no, please explain why?

Our dogs are exclusively fed Nutri-Source  "Super Performance" Formula   premium dog food ideal for Northern & Working
breeds.  Nutri-Source is readily available in all areas of the country.  A list of Dealers can be found on their website. We do not
wish for our dogs to be fed cheap, poor-quality, "grocery store brand" dog foods.

feed your dog?

Would you agree to feeding only a premium/high
quality dog food?
