Start by filling out the Application Form on our website. Once approved, a deposit is required when the puppy is born to secure your reservation.

Pick of the Litter is awarded to the first deposit received by mail for a specified litter, based on the chosen gender (male or female). Remaining picks are assigned in the order deposits are received. Deposits are organized by puppy gender.

Note: Vorderosa Retrievers reserves the right to retain the Breeder's Pick of the Litter before any selections are made by the general public.

Yes, if you are purchasing two puppies, you will need to be on the Reservation List twice, with a deposit for each puppy. If you are purchasing one puppy, only one deposit is required.

Yes, our dogs are registered with the American Kennel Club (AKC). To learn more about the AKC, visit www.akc.org. If you would like your puppy to be AKC registered, just let us know, and we will provide Limited Registration paperwork at pickup.

Limited Registration with the AKC means the puppy is registered but does not come with breeding rights. Dogs with Limited Registration can still participate in AKC Performance Events, including Agility, Barn Hunt, Earthdog, Farm Dog, Field Trials, Hunting Tests, Herding, Obedience, Lure Coursing, Tracking, and more!
