1. How big will a Shiba Inu get as an adult?
The shibas in this picture are all adults...
|
|
By far, the most common question asked is relating to the size of the adult shiba inu. Most people think
that they get much larger than they actally do. The typical height for an adult male is 15 1/2" and
14 1/2" for an adult female. The typical weight for an adult male is 22 lbs and 18 lbs for an adult
female.
To put things in perspective, Danielle is an 13 year old girl who is exactly 5' 1/2" tall.
The adult shibas are slightly above her knee. These are the perfect sized dogs for children.

2. Do you ship your shibas?
We are located in Salisbury, NC. We do ship by airline. The typical cost for this
is $200-$250 for the flight and another $85 for the additional Airline Health Certificates and a USDA
approved airline shipping crate. We are attempting to make this process as cost effective as
possible. The airlines we ship through are listed on our Puppies
page at the very bottom.

3. When is final payment due?
Final payment is required when the puppy is 8 weeks of age or before any airline reservations are made.
Puppies that are going to be picked are locally MUST be paid in cash at the time of pickup. We
recently ran into issues relating to personal checks and have decided not to accept this method
of payment going forward.

4. What are your prices and methods of payment?
We are frequently asked about exact dollar amounts for the dogs. The simple answer is that all male and female
Shiba Inu puppies are $900. All male and female Tamaskan puppies are $1000.
Security Deposits: Once the decision has been made to get a RightPuppy puppy a $200 security deposit
is required to hold our specific puppy. Please understand,
once we accept your deposit, you are guaranteed to get a dog; other customers
are told that the puppy is sold. For this reason, these deposits are NON-REFUNDABLE for any reason!
We typically accept deposits via palpal to kevin@RightPuppy.com. If there is a chance
that you might change your mind and not follow through with the financial transaction, please do not
send a deposit. If you do not have a paypal account, and you would like to make a deposit please go to our Buy Now page. We have a system
that is tailored to be as fair as possible since there are far more customers than there are shiba inu dogs. In addition,
the order that customers choose their puppies from a litter is based on the order that we receive the security
deposits; the security deposit order is clearly listed on the site along with the customer name.

Refunds: NO REFUNDS will be given to any person returning a perfectly healthy puppy!
There are some circumstances where a new owner finds the task overwhelming and decides to return the puppy. We are
happy to do so but we cannot
return any part of the puppy cost or the shipping cost. NO REFUNDS will be given to any person or organization who is willfully attempting to commit
fraud against RightPuppy, Inc or its officiers. Fraud includes but is not limited to:
Giving false or non-used names during a monetary transaction with the intent of hiding a buyers true identity.
Purchasing a puppy on the behalf of another person(s) with the intent of hiding a buyers true identity.
These are malicious tactics used by Puppy Mills and will
not be tolerated by RightPuppy, Inc. All persons involved in such activities will be prosecuted to the fullest
extent of the law by the RightPuppy, Inc legal team...

5. How do I choose my puppy from the litter?
Puppies are picked by customers in the order that the security deposits are received by RightPuppy Inc.
So that there is no miscommunication, we update the site immediately upon receipt of a personal check or a Paypal
deposit with a name and the order number. Please note, we do not wait for personal checks to clear before applying
the security deposit credit; credit is given the day that the letter contained the check is received. We have
devised this system in order to provide the fairest possible means of matching the desired puppy to
a given customer.

history is explained here: History of the Tamaskan
