How we raise and place every puppy

PLEASE READ THIS IMPORTANT INFORMATION CAREFULLY

By purchasing a puppy from Bellapuppies, you acknowledge and agree to the policies outlined below. These policies are in place to protect the well-being of our puppies and ensure responsible ownership.

Return Policy

Bellapuppies does not accept returns on any puppy unless there is a documented medical reason that makes it impossible for the owner to keep the puppy. An example of this would be a severe allergy to pet dander, confirmed in writing by a licensed medical professional.

• You must notify Bellapuppies within 72 hours of taking your puppy home if a documented medical condition prevents you from keeping the puppy.
• If a return is approved for a valid medical reason, a $500 restocking fee will apply.
• This fee helps cover the time, care, and costs associated with rehoming the puppy and is non-negotiable.

We do not accept returns for changes in lifestyle, housing issues, financial reasons, or personal preference.

Rehoming Services

If you find yourself in a situation where you must rehome your puppy for non-medical reasons, Bellapuppies offers a rehoming service to help ensure your puppy is placed in a responsible and loving home.

• The rehoming service fee is equal to half of the original purchase price of the puppy.
• This fee covers the time, screening, care, and resources required to properly place your puppy.

Bellapuppies does not guarantee a timeline for rehoming but will make reasonable efforts to assist.

Final Commitment

By purchasing a puppy from Bellapuppies, you acknowledge that you are making a long-term commitment to your new companion.

We strongly encourage all buyers to carefully consider:

• Their lifestyle and schedule
• Financial responsibility
• Housing restrictions
• Long-term care needs

Purchasing a puppy should never be an impulsive decision.

Toys & Feeding Recommendations

We recommend Hill’s Science Diet Puppy Food for proper nutrition and growth.

For small-breed puppies prone to low blood sugar (hypoglycemia), we recommend keeping one of the following on hand:

• FortiCal
• NutriCal
• Corn syrup

To help reduce anxiety during the transition to a new home:

• Snuggle Puppy toys are highly recommended
• KONG brand soft plush toys are best for small-breed puppies

Always supervise playtime and avoid toys with small or detachable parts.
