1 MORGEN HAUS SHEPHERDS 803 Kitt-Narcisse Rd. Colville, WA Phone: 509/ Fax: 509/ Puppy Interview and Reservation Form Thank you for your interest in our puppies! Our wonderful puppies are raised amidst a multigenerational home, with each litter receiving interaction with the different ages within our household. They are carefully introduced to the world around them through a wide range of positive experiences designed to provide a strong basis for sound temperament. It is critical to us to be sure that each puppy we have painstakingly raised is placed in a forever home that is prepared to care for him/her properly. As with any dog, owning a German Shepherd is a tremendous, long-term responsibility, not a purchase to be made on impulse. While the rewards are well worth the effort, it requires commitment on your part for care and training to create the wonderful companion your puppy has the potential to become. The information provided below will be used to help us match you to just the right puppy, and to be sure that we are comfortable with the home we are placing our puppy into.
