Use this guide to compare a possible match and prepare the questions that matter before homecoming. Sage Puppies is Cassie Milar’s South Jordan, Utah program, founded in 2025. We offer Havanese, Havapoo and Cavapoo. New Mexico families can begin with [Available Puppies](https://sagepuppies.com/available-puppies/) , then discuss the individual puppy and a supported homecoming with Cassie. ## Start with current profiles and a clear purchase budget Sage’s general puppy purchase range is **$3,500–$4,500**. Confirm the particular puppy’s price with Cassie; travel, continuing care and guardian arrangements are separate. Read [Pricing & Reservation](https://sagepuppies.com/pricing-reservation/) and [How It Works](https://sagepuppies.com/our-program/how-it-works/) before committing. [See available puppies](https://sagepuppies.com/available-puppies/) [Start your application](https://sagepuppies.com/application/) The live family-availability selection below can change. Open the individual profile, then ask about status, records and the possible match. A breed without current listings calls for a conversation about future plans. An application alone does not reserve a puppy or confirm a travel date. ![Grayscale drawing of a woman and boy holding a curly-coated puppy on a sofa, with desert mesas and cacti pictured beyond a window.](https://sagepuppies.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/ai-image-1790487145878-d2j13p.webp) AI-generated family illustration; it is not a Sage placement, current puppy listing or verified New Mexico home.

Tell Cassie about children, other animals, work hours and the person covering a delayed return. Ask which observations have been repeated and which expectations remain estimates. A breed label cannot guarantee adult size, temperament or an allergy outcome. Review [Early Development](https://sagepuppies.com/about/early-development/) to prepare questions about the experiences you will continue at home. ## Prepare for the conditions at your actual address The [National Weather Service’s New Mexico climate discussion](https://www.weather.gov/abq/clifeaturespringfreeze) explains how elevation and terrain affect local conditions. Avoid treating every New Mexico home as the same hot, dry setting. Check the local forecast and the route from your door to a suitable toilet area; plan how the responsible adult will adjust outings when conditions change. In a shared building, check pet permission, stairs or elevator access and a quiet rest area. With a yard, check the gate, supervision position and a reachable route outside. Provide a practical indoor care plan too. Use our [New Mexico puppy water and heat guide](https://sagepuppies.com/how-to-keep-your-puppy-hydrated-in-new-mexico-dry-heat/) to organize water access, suitable indoor rest and questions for the receiving veterinarian. ## Match the puppy and parent records before deciding Request the puppy’s birth date, supplied identification, examination findings, vaccination and treatment history, and any disclosed concerns. Keep those records separate from parent screening. Ask which actual parent results are available, which named dogs they identify and what each result addresses. Read [Health Testing](https://sagepuppies.com/about/health-testing/) as preparation, then have your receiving veterinarian interpret the particular records. Clarify an incomplete entry with its issuer. Keep the actual agreement, payment terms and care instructions accessible to every adult responsible for the puppy. A health-tested phrase or reassuring photograph is not an individual medical history or a guarantee of future health. ## Confirm public-health, local and travel requirements [New Mexico’s animal-control rules](https://www.srca.nm.gov/parts/title07/07.004.0002.html) address rabies vaccination for dogs over three months, vaccination records and local animal-control responsibilities. Ask the issuing and receiving veterinarians about the puppy’s actual age and history, and check the relevant local authority’s licensing and animal rules. That age provision alone does not establish every requirement for an interstate journey. Discuss the specific journey through [Delivery & Pickup](https://sagepuppies.com/delivery-and-pickup/) before booking it. Confirm the responsible adults, current entry requirements, documents and receiving arrangements with Cassie, the veterinarian and relevant authority. Use [NMDOT travel information](https://www.dot.nm.gov/travel-information/) for current road conditions; a general route or go-home estimate cannot account for a changed closure or weather event. ## Include a care backup and emergency plan New Mexico’s [wildfire preparedness guidance](https://www.dhsem.nm.gov/preparedness-for-residents/wildfires/) includes household and pet evacuation planning and local notifications. Identify who can take over care or collect the puppy if normal arrangements are interrupted. Keep a carrier, care instructions, necessary records and contact routes accessible. Confirm a receiving location that can actually accommodate the puppy rather than assuming every shelter or lodging option permits pets. Explain your town, household routine, care backup and timing flexibility in the [application](https://sagepuppies.com/application/) . Keep material questions open until the people responsible have answered them. You can return to [puppy guides by state](https://sagepuppies.com/puppy-guides-by-state/) when planning for a different receiving household.
