FAQ



Our waiting list guides our breeding program.
Adding yourself to the waiting list involves commitment.
MRP's waiting list is extensive as we are a preferred Victoria Minister approved Breeder,
A Government Registered Domestic Animal Breeding business
and not a Puppy Farm.(substandard and illegal).
Unfortunately MRP's has come to realize the
Public are part of the problem when it comes to puppy farm support.
They either want the puppy today and will hunt until they get it.
(Covid-19 irrational buying/ breeding, was a great example of this).
The public then generally end up supporting a BYB or Puppy Farms.
Just as problematic is they will add themselves to the waiting list
and not let the breeder know if a puppy is adopted elsewhere or changes of circumstance.
SO PLEASE NOTE
To be added to the waiting list you will be required to pay a $500 entry fee.
This $500 will come off the purchase price of your puppy when your puppy is placed on hold.
The $500 is non refundable for any reason as our breeding program is planned many months in advance to puppies being born.
Whilst the public demands ethical care for dogs in breeding situations,
WE demand the public to be committed when preparing for their next family addition.
Our dogs come first.
How Our Waiting List Works?
1. Entering the Waiting list, you will be required to pay a $500 entry fee.
This $500 will come off the purchase price of your puppy when your puppy is placed on hold.
The $500 is non refundable for any reason as our breeding program is planned
many months in advance to puppies being born.
2. You will be notified via email when a litter is born aged 7-10 days old.
If you wish to place a puppy on hold from that litter,
you will need to reply QUICKLY via email and let us know your preference.
We place puppies on hold in order of email responses. A 20% deposit of the purchase price confirms the puppy is held for you. This is also Non-refundable.
3. If you are unsuccessful, you will be notified when the next litter arrives.
If you do not wish to secure a puppy from the litter, or have missed out, please let us know via email, and you will be kept on the waiting list.
Failure to respond 3 times will put you at risk of being removed from our waiting lists
after we have attempted contact with you.
4. If you do not respond within 24 hours, the next places on the waiting list will be notified and following that all available babies will be advertised.
Please note:
In the interest of our responsible breeding program and fairness to other families
waiting for a new family member,
Failure to respond to 3 litter notification emails,
May result in you being removed from our list.
You can remain on our list for as long as it takes to find the right puppy for you,
but you must respond to let us know that you would like to wait for a future litter.
