First 15 days — statutory

Under Korea's consumer dispute resolution standard. If the puppy dies within 15 days, it is exchanged or the purchase price refunded. If illness appears within 15 days, we cover the cost of treatment.

First year — congenital and hereditary conditions

If one of the conditions below is confirmed by a veterinarian within one year of the handover, and the treatment cost exceeds the purchase price, we contribute 50% of the purchase price.

Patellar luxation, grade 3 or above
Congenital heart disease (PDA etc.)
Tracheal collapse
Alopecia X

Tell us the diagnosis and agree the treatment plan with us before treatment begins. Treatment carried out without prior agreement is not covered.

In a life-threatening emergency, treat first and tell us within 48 hours — the same terms apply.

The original diagnosis and receipts are required. Accident and neglect are excluded.

For life — return policy

If you ever cannot keep the dog, do not resell it. Send it back to us. There is no refund, and we take the dog back without conditions.

We do not currently run genetic testing on the parent dogs. We would rather state that plainly than imply otherwise, and we widen the post-placement guarantee instead.

Contract

Sales contract plus health and veterinary records.

A sales contract and health/veterinary records are provided with every puppy — date of birth, lineage, sex, color, vaccination record, and treatment record.

Visiting

By appointment, a day ahead, 12:00–17:00. Meet the parents in person.

Visits are by appointment, booked at least one day ahead, between 12:00 and 17:00. You can meet the parents and the puppies in person.

Icheon, Gyeonggi-do, Korea

Sending a puppy abroad

Your country sets the timeline — from 6 to about 10 months old.

Your country decides the timeline, not us. Plan backwards from these.

USA	Six months old minimum at entry
Europe	Rabies titer at 4 months, then a 3-month wait
Japan	Approximately 10 months

Requirements are set by the authority in your country and change. Confirming them is the buyer’s responsibility. We will not falsify records to shorten a quarantine period.

Transport cost

USD 500 – 2,500 depending on region.

Asia	USD 500 – 1,500
North America (USA · Canada · Mexico)	USD 1,000 – 2,000
Europe	USD 1,500 – 2,500
Elsewhere	Quote on request

The transport cost covers

Airfare — cargo or in-cabin depending on destination
Blood tests required for export
Quarantine clearance for departure
Import documents required by your country
For dogs with pedigrees — ownership transfer and kennel club registration fees

If there is no direct flight from Korea, or only certain airlines will carry animals, the total may be higher. Tell us your country, city, and nearest international airport for an accurate quote.

Air cargo	Most common
Hand-carry	Possible, but significantly more expensive
Collect in person	We prepare the paperwork; you fly home together
