What can I expect to pay for a Coton de Tulear puppy? Pet/Companion Coton de Tulear puppies from code of ethic breeders who belong to reputable Coton de Tulear breed clubs in the USA typically range in price from $2,000.00 to $3,000.00. Show/Breeding prospect puppies are priced from $3,000.00 to $5,000.00. Coton de Tulear breeders in the USA who are passionate about the Coton de Tulear breed belong to one or more of the following breed clubs - American Coton Club, American Association of the Coton de Tulear, United States of America Coton de Tulear Club or the North American Coton Association. If you want a pure bred Coton then purchase a Coton from a breeder who cares enough about the Coton de Tulear breed to be a member of one of the above breed clubs. Code of Ethic breeders who belong to the reputable Coton de Tulear breed clubs set high standards to preserve, honor and protect the Coton de Tulear breed from exploitation and careless breeding practices. Code of Ethic breeders have an obligation to protect the health and welfare of the Coton de Tulear breed. Most COE breeders screen their Cotons using available health tests and results are made public on the OFFA and CERF web sites. COE breeders stay informed of all health and genetic issues related to the Coton de Tuelar breed. COE breeders only breed together Coton de Tulear dogs. Our Cotons will never be bred to mixed breed dogs or other pure bred breeds of dog. COE breeders will never place or sell a Coton for resale to a pet store, dealer, wholesaler, broker or backyard breeder.
Our pet/companion Coton de Tulear puppies are $2,200.00. Our potentially breedable quality puppies are $2,800.00 to pet/companion homes with a spay/neuter contract. These puppies are for people who want a "potentially breedable quality" puppy but do not want to breed. Show/Breeding prospect puppies with breeding rights are $3,500.00. In order to purchase a show/breeding prospect puppy the owner must be a member of at least one of the reputable breed clubs (American Coton Club - ACC, American Association Coton de Tulear - AACDT, United States of American Coton de Tulear Club - USACTC) and follow the Code Of Ethics for the breed club. This will be stipulated in the show/breeding prospect contract. Our puppies are microchiped, they have had their first vaccination and health exam at Lake Stevens Animal Hospital with Dr. Renee Gray. A CERF eye exam will be done on each puppy at the Animal Eye Clinic in Seattle, WA. For those purchasing pet/companion and potentially breedable quality Cotons that will not be bred - the registration/pedigree papers for your Coton will be sent to you after spay/neuter surgery is done. Our puppies will not be spay/neutered before six months of age. This will be stipulated in the puppy contract. Our puppies are sent home with a comprehensive contract for the protection of our puppies, their owners and ourselves. |

Kevin Cattledrivers Castle x Noelani Cattledrivers Castle Date of Birth: August 15, 2009
|
|
Noelani and Kevin's puppies were born on August 15, 2009. Eme was born at 2:45 pm, she weighed 4 ounces at birth and then we had a long wait for Mily to arrive. Mily was born at 7:11 pm, she weighed 5.50 ounces at birth. Mily has the most color on her body. I think that Eme was in the birth canal ready to be born and Mily was up high in the birth canal so it took some time for her to come down the birth canal to be born. Noelani and her girls are resting contently in the whelping room. August 19 - Dr. Renee came to our home today and visited our puppies. They all had their first health exam. Noelani's puppies appear to be just fine. The puppies will visist Dr. Renee at her office for their next health exam when they are eight weeks of age. August 28 - The girls have opened their eyes. Next week the girls will move from the whelping box in the bedroom to our family room ex-pen area. |

Kevin Cattledrivers Castle will be four years of age on September 3, 2009. Kevin weighs thirteen pounds. Noelani turned four years of age on May 14, 2009. Noelani weighs nine and three quarter pounds. History of Kevin - Kevin was born at Cattledrivers Castle in the Netherlands. My sister, who was in Europe on vacation, flew to Amsterdam and picked up Kevin at the airport from his breeder, Wilma. My sister flew to Seattle, WA with Kevin in the cabin of the aircraft with her. We are thankful that Wilma agreed to send us Kevin. Kevin's father is Cartoonland's Tzigane and his mother is Azmirs Jewel from Azmirs. Kevin has a wonderful temperament. He was shown to his International championship by my friend, Karen Black. Kevin lived at Karen's home, Cotonwind Cotons, in Ontario, Canada for part of a year. He sired a few litters while he was at Karen's home. I really missed Kevin while he was gone. I am very happy to have him back home with us again. Kevin's Pedigree History of Noelani - Noelani was born at Cattledrivers Castle in the Netherlands. A friend of my sister's family, who lives in the Netherlands, brought Noelani to us. I was so excited to meet Noelani and Paul at the airport when they arrived from the Netherlands. I will always be thankful to Wilma for sending Noelani to live with us and to Paul for bringing Noelani to us. Rick and I adore Noelani. She is my little lap dog. It is hard for me to believe that she is already four years old. Noelani's mother is Xantippe Des Petites Folies and her father is Shance de L'Echo des Elingues. Noelani and Kevin have had two litters together. This is their third litter. It is wonderful to have the Cattledrivers Castle pedigree lines to work with here in the USA. Noelani's Pedigree Our puppies are sold with a comprehensive contract. The puppies have had their first vaccination by the time they leave for their new homes. The puppies are microchipped, they have a fecal exam and they have a health exam by Dr. Renee Gray before they leave for their homes. They also have CERF eye exams at the Animal Eye Clinic in Seattle.
What Goes Home With The Puppy? The supplies that I send home with my puppies are: shampoo and conditioner, comb and face comb, nail trimmer, blanket, harness and leash, pee pads and poop bags, small bags of Taste of the Wild and Natural Balance dry dog food, two cans of Natural Balance dog food, chew toys, toys, a box of treats and a puppy development book. In the file folder I send home with my puppies you will find: the contract, CERF eye exam results on the puppy, microchip number and information, veterinarian health report card on the puppy, information and copies of the health tests results on the parents, a booklet of information on the care of my puppies and Coton club information.
