Puppy Application

Social Media

We know how adorable French Bulldogs are. It's one of the reasons that so many people want them and why so many people are breeding them. Here at JoJo Frenchies, our primary intention is to always breed the healthiest dogs. We plan all our breedings based on health and what each dog brings to the match. Health is our first concern. We DNA test and OFA certify our dog parents.

We NEVER breed non-standard colors, designer, or fad dogs. Those that do are Greeders, not Breeders. Often, these dogs seem healthy at birth, but more often than not, as they grow, the health issues that lie hidden emerge.

We are very selective about who we place our puppies with, which is our right. So if you are seriously interested, please complete the application in detail. Thank you.

We want to thank you in advance for completing this application! At first glance, you might think, "Sheesh, this is a little long - are all these questions really necessary?" I know because I thought the same thing when we applied for our first French Bulldog!

Every family is different, and there are no right or wrong answers here. We know every family is different, and this application helps us identify which homes might make the best fit for both puppy and family.

If you're a veteran French Bulldog owner, we don't want to waste your time regaling you with FAQs you already know; by the same token, if this is your first puppy or first French Bulldog, we want to make sure you are prepared for what life with a French Bulldog puppy may bring.

So again, thank you for taking the time to complete this application thoroughly.

Puppy Preferences

We understand this can be a very exciting time for our potential puppy buyers! Starting at 6-7 weeks of age, we allow our approved buyer prospects to visit and make their picks in the order they were approved. Once you make your pick, we require a $250 non-refundable deposit. The deposit goes towards the puppy's final purchase price. We completely understand the urge for potential puppy parents to want to come and visit our puppies. We do not allow any visitors until the puppy has had their first set of vaccinations, which protects them against serious illnesses common in puppies. We post weekly updates on our Instagram account, so follow us @jojofrenchies. We are unable to hold puppies without a non-refundable deposit. Please contact us if you have any questions or concerns regarding this.

Have you ever raised a puppy before?
Is this your first French Bulldog?
Do you have other pets in the Home?

Enter none if no other pets.

Puppy Preferences

Tell us what your puppy preferences are. We can't promise to meet all of your expectations, but we try.

All Pet Puppies come with limited AKC Registration, which means they do not come with breeding rights and need to be spayed/neutered by 14 months old. Once proof of spayed/neutered (Letter from your Vet), you will receive the puppy's AKC registration papers.

If you are looking for a Show Prospect, what are your AKC competition plans? (Agility, Confirmation, Good Citizen.)

If you have been following us on Instagram @jojofrenchies, is there a specific puppy you like? Let us know by puppy collar color. Males are Gold, Light Blue, Dark Blue, and Green. Females are Hot Pink, Red, and Yellow.

If you have a veterinarian, please enter their contact information below.

Managing Expectations

Here's where we want to know about your home and the environment where your puppy will live.

If you live in a condo, does your HOA allow dogs?

Select an option

If you live in an apartment, will your Landlord allow you to have a dog?

If yes, how much is your pet deposit?

Select an option

​

Do you have a fenced yard?

Select an option

We ask because electric fence collars are not safe for brachycephalic breeds (flat-faced dogs). Frenchies are safest in fenced-in areas. A fence is not a prerequisite, we just want to know how you will keep your puppy safe outdoors.

Are you willing to crate train your puppy?

Crate training creates a safe space for you puppy when you need to leave it home alone.

Will your puppy primarily be an inside dog?

French Bulldogs are inside dogs. Warm days can quickly become deadly for a Frenchie as the overheat quickly and do not tolerate cold.

French Bulldogs need their nails trimmed weekly, can you commit to doing this or commit to having a groomer trim them weekly?
Is this puppy being purchased as a surprise for someone?
Do you agree to stay in touch and send us photos and let us know how the puppy is doing?

Return Clause

If at any time you are no longer able or willing to care for this puppy/dog, you must surrender this dog back to the breeder, with signed registration papers, to be placed in a suitable prescreened home of the breeder’s choice. No monies will be refunded to the buyer unless the dog is rehomed. At that point, the buyer may receive a refund of no more than 25% of the purchase price, minus any expenses incurred by the breeder, including but not limited to travel, vetting, training, etc. The balance, if any, will be returned to the Buyer. If the buyer sells or rehomes this puppy/dog without first offering it back to the breeder for placement, the buyer will be in breach of contract. Breach of this contract will result in a $5,000.00 penalty plus court and attorney fees. All shipping costs will be the buyer’s responsibility.

Managing Expectations

Completing this application is a step in the process to acquiring a puppy from JoJo French Bulldogs, but it does not guarantee I'll get a puppy from this or any future litter. While it's unlikely, the breeder reserves the right to refuse any placement at any time.

​

If this application is approved, you'll be notified when the puppies are born and be required to send a $250 non-refundable deposit within 7 days in order to hold the puppy of your choice. Please note our deposit policy: if you make a deposit, you are committing to take a puppy from the litter, regardless of whether your gender/color preference is available. Should you elect not to take a puppy from the litter, the deposit is forfeited. We do our best to match your preferences.

​

Deposits are non-refundable. From time to time, we may decide to keep a puppy out of a litter. We reserve the right to hold puppies. This may mean that certain puppies may not be available for a couple of weeks while we decide whether we will keep the said puppy or not.  Puppies will go to their new homes at 10 weeks. We cannot hold puppies for extended times; it is critical for their social development that the litter departs within a reasonable timeframe. Puppies must be picked up within 7 days of their 10-week birthday unless other written arrangements are made.

We have a puppy purchase contract that is separate from this Application, and we will not place a puppy without a signed contract. Once your deposit has been made, we will send you the contract. We believe it's the professional thing to do to memorialize our obligations to each other on paper so there are no questions later, and for that reason, it's a bit lengthy.

​

If you have questions about specific terms, you need to contact us prior to picking up your puppy. 

If you purchase "Limited Registration," we require that the puppy be spayed/neutered at or before 18 months. Proof of the procedure from your vet is required before we will release the said dog's registration papers.

​

** We do not allow any puppy to leave our property prior to 10 weeks of age, NO EXCEPTIONS* This is because we give them their first three sets of vaccinations which are given at 6, 8, & 10 weeks.
 

 

​Thank you. We greatly appreciate the time you
have taken in completing this application.
I look forward to speaking with you.
