As the owners of Mishnok Siberia

As the owners of Mishnok Siberians, we strive to ensure that all of our Siberians and their new families will be truly happy together. Therefore, we require that all prospective buyers complete this questionnaire.

Please understand that each individual puppy/dog placement is determined according to that specific animal's personality and by the role s/he will play within his/her new family. While we understand that this questionnaire might be daunting to some, we hope that you understand that it is our goal to find forever homes for our dogs. We want our Siberians to have only the best homes possible where s/he has a life where s/he is an active family member.

Our Requirements

All of our Siberians are sold by contract only. We do this to protect the dog and assure our buyers that we stand
behind all Mishnok Siberians.

Would you agree to signing a contract?

All dogs sold as companion pets are required to be spayed/neutered by 5 months of age. All adults are spayed/neutered prior to going to their new
homes. Your AKC registration application will be held until a signed letter from your veterinarian , on your veterinarians stationary, is received
stating that the spay/neuter is complete. All AKC registration papers will have the non-breeding (limited registration) boxes checked prior to
submission to AKC.

Do you agree to our spay/neuter requirements?
