Puppy Application Information: Please Read Before Filling out an Application.

Picture
If you are interested in getting a puppy from us down the road, are considering looking for an adult or rescue dog, or just plain ol' want someone to talk to about whether malamutes are for you, please fill out our puppy application form.  This will enable us to help you as you go throuh this process, and if that is the right path for you, select the right puppy for your needs and wants.

You can find our Puppy Application by Clicking Here

When Should I Fill Out the Application?

Picture
You might ask, "why fill out one now when there are no puppies yet?" 
It's a good question. The answer is pretty simple - breeders often have full lists of potential "puppy people" long before the breeding ever takes place, and have many of their puppies sold long before they are born
(or even before the breeding happens!).

Plus, if we don't have what you are looking for (or when you are looking for it), your information can help us match you up with other breeders that might have what you need.

Once you find a breeder with dogs that you are interested in, particularly if you are interested in a pup out of a specific breeding, it's helpful to the breeder to have your name long in advance to allow time for the interview and screening process.  And it's helpful to you to know that you are "on the list" for that special litter.

What Pick Do I Get?

Picture
Here at Gryphon, we don't have a simple list according to "who signs up first".  While a certain amount of priority will go to those who have expressed an early interest, puppies will ALWAYS be placed according to the best fit.  Each puppy has their own unique personality, and we try very hard to match their personality with yours and that of your household and lifestyle.  We are more interested in making the right matches that will last a lifetime than simply sending off the puppies to the first buyer at the door.

But do remember, it's still to your advantage to be on a list sooner rather than later, wherever may be the best fit for you to get your next puppy.  That way, we have a chance to get to know you (and you us!), which is good for everyone involved.  Also, once a certain number of people have showed a serious interest in a particular litter, we will start referring folks elsewhere so there's aren't an impossible number of people waiting for pups from a single litter :-)  We are more interested in quality than quantity, and so will only have an occasional litter.

What If It Doesn't Work?

Picture
If we do not have a litter planned soon, or if you like what you see but might want to look elsewhere before making the big decision, we are happy to refer you as best we can to other ethical breeders with quality dogs that might have puppies that fit your needs. 
Don't be afraid to ask! We won't be offended!!


We want to help make sure your decision is the best one for YOU, so that it will also be the best for your puppy.

Welcome to the family!

Tthese are our babies ... and we are proud to share them with you.

We also want to express our deep appreciation for our extended doggie family - once you get a pup or dog from us, you are family, and through our dogs we have met some of the most incredible people anyone could have the privilege to know.  These friendships are priceless ... so, thank you, to all who share their lives with our dogs and us.
