We take great pride in our Beagle puppies and want all of them to go to good homes. All of our Beagle puppies are $1250 with limited AKC registration for either sex. A deposit of $250 is required to hold your Beagle puppy or to be put on a waiting list for upcoming Beagle puppies. Picks are determined by the order deposits are received. If you were interested in full AKC registration, please contact us before placing your deposit, to find out if we are offering full registration from any current litters. Deposits are non-refundable, but are transferable to future litters or can be rolled over to the next litter if there aren’t enough puppies in the litter you placed a deposit on.

Once the Beagle puppies are born, all families will be notified when the puppies are about 2 weeks old.  At 5-6 weeks families will pick out their Beagle puppy in the order of deposits received by pictures or videos. Once the puppies have received their second set of shots at  8 weeks, they will be ready for puppy visits or to go to their new homes. At 8-9 weeks Beagle puppies may be picked up at our home unless other arrangements are made.

At 9 weeks of age, the Beagle pups are ready to leave our home and join their new family. We know we have done our best in raising your new family member and we back our Beagle puppies with these comprehensive guarantees. All Beagle pups leaving our home will have already been micro-chipped. Any Beagle pup/dog being returned must match their said microchip number for this guarantee to be honored.

1.) General Health Guarantee – 5 day
2.) Eye Disorder Guarantee – 30 month
3.) Hip Dysplasia Guarantee – 30 month

1.) HEALTH
If your veterinarian states that your Beagle puppy has any problem that makes it a poor health risk (this does not include the presence of external parasites such as fleas, ticks, lice, mites, mange, etc. or internal parasites such as giardia, coccidiosis, tapeworm, roundworm, hookworm, heartworm, etc.), you may, within 5 days of purchase, return the Beagle puppy (along with the AKC registration papers and all materials) for a full refund. A written, signed, and dated statement from your veterinarian is required detailing the description of symptoms supporting his/her opinion and an explanation as to why this Beagle puppy would be a poor health risk. This exam and all associated costs are the buyer’s responsibility. Please note that this is 5 days from when the Beagle pup leaves our premises.

Nacius’ kennel is not obligated to exercise this section of the contract if we believe that the Beagle puppy is the victim of an accident or has been abused.

2.) EYE DISORDERS
You must have your dog’s eyes examined by a Canine Ophthalmologist within 30 months of Date of Birth. The forms must be submitted to OFA for review. If your dog receives a “non-clear” rating that could NOT have possibly been due to an injury or poor health management, then you may be eligible for a refund. OFA is the ONLY authority for rating your dog’s eyes. All associated costs are the buyer’s responsibility. Breeder’s Option codes ARE passing.

3.) HIP DYSPLASIA
Every Beagle puppy produced by Nacius’ kennels is guaranteed to be free of hip dysplasia. While hip dysplasia could happen, this guarantee is offered to protect your personal and monetary investment. All associated costs are the buyer’s responsibility.

After 24 and before 30 months of age, you must have your dog’s hips x-rayed by a reputable veterinarian and they must be submitted to the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA). If your dog receives a rating of moderate or severe, you may be eligible for a refund or replacement Beagle puppy of comparable breeding and price. OFA is the only authority for rating your dog’s hips. Nacius’ kennel has the right to require a second opinion due to variations in technique and position while x-raying.

In the case of dysplasia, you must submit a copy of the x-ray and OFA report to us. The dog must be genetically dysplastic. The guarantee does not apply to a dog that cannot receive an OFA number due to injury or nutritional deficiency.

** Nacius’ kennel does NOT cover any other disorders/ailments not stated on this Health Guarantee.**
