Thank you for inquiring about a puppy from Fatima Kennels. We are dedicated Bouvier lovers who participate in various dog related events and we breed occasionally to produce what we believe to be a quality Bouvier that conforms to the breed standard, are intelligent and able to do what the Bouvier was originally meant to do. We focus on doing all we can to produce physically and mentally sound dogs. Through our membership in both local and national Bouvier clubs we are exposed to other points of view and educational programs, and we keep up on the rules and regulations governing these clubs. Through our constant contact with other Bouvier breeders all over the world we have the opportunity to share information and ideas concerning Bouviers When we have puppies available we ensure that our puppies are only sold to loving committed homes and we do our best, through this questionnaire and other means, to ensure a good match between the personality of prospective owners and our puppies. Our puppies are all home raised and are well cared for and socialized during their time with us. Puppies going to a new home are not a trained, well-mannered finished product...they are puppies! They will have accidents and they will get into mischief, all part of being a puppy. We expect new owners to finish the job we have started and help their puppy become a mature, well-mannered Bouvier by being responsible for the further development of the puppy's personality through structured discipline, training, guidance and most of all, love This questionnaire serves the purpose of helping us become better acquainted with the people inquiring about our Bouviers. It serves to present us with a more complete picture of what you are looking for in a dog and to help us match you as a potential buyer with a dog that will, ultimately, turn out to be what you are looking for. This questionnaire in no way constitutes a contract on our part that there will be a Bouvier des Flandres available for you, nor do your responses serve as the sole determinant of whether or not a Bouvier des Flandres will be offered. All of our pet puppies are sold on a Limited Registration-without exception, which means that if the dog is bred, the resulting offspring will not be recognized or registerable with the AKC. Puppies sold as pet quality puppies are required to be spayed/neutered with no exceptions. Prior to taking the puppy home you will be given a copy of our "Puppy Pak", a wide variety of information on training and care of your puppy, a list of proper equipment and supplies to obtain prior to bringing your puppy home, a copy of the pedigree and a copy of our sales agreement. At the time you purchase your puppy you will be asked to sign a sales agreement. You will be given a copy of all applicable registration papers, health records and any other information we feel you may need. As much as possible we evaluate each puppy's temperament and personality by observing them during their development. Thus, allowing us to match the puppy to the buyer to produce the best fit of puppy and family. Please complete the following information and return the questionnaire to us at our e-mail address: Or snail mail to: Fatima Kennels, 3 Marshall Court, Stafford, VA 22554 |
We would like to thank you for taking the time to fill in this on-line questionnaire form. The idea behind these questions is that, knowing the pups temperament from day one, we may see different things in them than you would as a stranger attempting to pick one. In this way we may be better able to guide you toward a puppy which realistically suits your experience, needs and goals. We make every effort to ensure that our puppies are free from any inherited defects, by screening our breeding stock for those problems common to our breed. If, at any time, your Bouvier is diagnosed with any health problems, genetic or otherwise, we must be notified immediately of the full details so that we can make every effort to help with the situation.
