Matching Current Puppies with our Waiting Families!
We first see if there is a potential match for each baby among our
pre-approved families, who placed a deposit ahead of time to hold
their position in the claiming-process, so they could be offered
appropriate matches & have the option to choose just the right
little one for their family! We wait a little to hear back from
them.
After we have determined the status of those on the
waiting list, and have satisfied those that match, we can begin
considering new folks for a now Available puppy. (sometimes we
find out that someone in line needs to wait, or their family has decided
they prefer a particular preference, such as a 'blaze' or have
narrowed it down to a more specific color, etc.)
While we are
checking in with folks on the waiting list, other new folks may
like to join in the meanwhile so that they would be next to have
their own turn to be offered the option of that one, or another
puppy matching their preference. Those additional folks are approved in
the meanwhile if we were able to also focus our attention on new
inquiries at that time, otherwise we may only be able to focus on
our claimed & waiting families, and primarily of course all our
babies, and simply contact new inquiries as we get the chance or
after we have a better idea of the status of our waiting list &
current babies.
(so patience & simple reminders are usually favored when we do come to a point where we
can sit down and review the emails from the many folks who have
contacted us, ultimately we choose to approve the sweet & patient folks
sharing their details who
understand the value of our time around here, and appreciate our
priorities, including focusing on the best possible upbringing of
our babies, versus being a breeder more concerned with selling
them by making customer sales the first priority while
ignoring the vital care & attention a developing puppy needs).
Its those homes that appreciate the value of that time we spend focusing on our babies' development, which the new family must also understand and be willing to continue that devotion in their own pack, who we love to have join our big happy family!
Available Puppies!
Once we have a better idea of
what our waiting list looks like for that puppy & their timeframe to
enter a new home, we may see that a puppy no longer has pre-approved
matches left in that type of line (having that color/size/gender as
an option), and that means a new family may be just the one for that
puppy!
We then announce that puppy is available !
If the puppy is currently ready to enter their forever home to begin
the bonding process with the new family & begin learning the ways of
their forever household & pack, we ask that only folks ready to
bring home a puppy inquire about that Ready Baby.
If it will be a couple weeks before ready, then perhaps a
younger litter would better match, or if a little longer, then an
upcoming litter from an expectant mommy!

Matching Available Puppies to New
Families:
When we, Miss Christina &/or
daughter Christi, do get a chance to hop online between
responsibilities around our home, we can start reading some of our
emails, and with your household details to review, we can more
easily move forward in considering you as a good match! We often
discuss the various possibilities for our babies with each other to
figure out the best possible matches for our puppies, and then
finally we can start our replies with those who we select to join
our extended sunshine acres family!
(with such an involved &
careful process, patience is a must-have trait, and kind persistence
is also helpful to get our attention when there are many folks
emailing for us to learn about & remember!)
Hint: Mentioning puppy
preferences/ favorites/main wishes in your e-mail's subject line
helps us know what you're especially interested in when we are able
to look over of inbox, and check out any good possibilities for a
baby, & with those details in sight, we can then more easily notice
& recall your desire if we're looking back on numerous inquiries!
(Lost or Spam? Try again :)
emails do sometimes go into our
spam folder, or get lost a few pages back among a wave of incoming
messages. If it seems we may have missed your email that week, you
are welcome to resend & kindly recap or add to your interest!)
"I'm Looking for my baby!"
Our "Waiting List" helps to match our
pre-approved people up with the right babies, and gives them that
option to claim their own baby beagle to love & raise!!
With as many preference options as desired, Joining the waiting list holds your spot in the line(s) ahead of the others who come to us with similar interests. You can receive a higher priority in the claiming process, where at your personal turn(s) for a type of puppy, we offer you individually our current puppies matching those preferences of yours, giving you the choice to either claim a baby, or let us know to move on to the next person if you would like to pass and continue waiting for your turn to claim.
Then we can wait and see what our expectant mommies have in their upcoming litters! (If someone was waiting ahead, we'll check their status as to whether it has become their timeframe, if so, then if they would like to choose a match, or they may fall for a different puppy-type, or pass & continue waiting for a better timeframe or future litters so we can come to your turn again!).
At times there may be only 1 or 2 people in particular lines, so after we tie up any loose ends, if you had meanwhile joined, then at your turn we could then see who has become available for you to consider, & can contact you individually for a choice before we email to offer that puppy to any of the others currently inquiring about the available puppy at the time.
It's like Pre Qualifying for a puppy from us!
At the moment, the Lines for Standard Males in all colors are virtually satisfied (or only have folks wanting a later timeframe in line). Therefore, joining this line could make our next available Chocolate, orange, silver, or khaki males become available to you to choose from first, before anyone interested after you/ the general public that seeks consideration for them can be considered.
(Mini khaki & silver male lines are also currently satisfied, with only folks for future timeframes in line at the moment) (There is only one person currently ready for a Khaki or Silver Female, so the same concept goes along with these lines as well once that person decides.)
