Puppy Health Guarantee from Sage Puppies

- Written health policy
- Health-tested parents
- Veterinary wellness care
- Pickup and delivery guidance
Important Policy Note
The written agreement controls the exact health terms.
This page explains our health-focused approach and what families can expect before go-home day. Exact terms, timeframes, documentation requirements, exclusions, and remedies should always match the written Sage Puppies agreement provided to the family. Please review that agreement before placing a reservation or bringing your puppy home.
A written health policy is not a promise that a puppy will never experience a health concern. It is designed to create clarity, encourage timely veterinary care, and help families understand the steps to take if a concern comes up after go-home.
What Families Receive
Health-focused care before your puppy comes home.
Our written policy is one part of a broader care system. Sage Puppies families should understand the puppy’s start, the records provided, and the next steps for their own veterinarian after pickup or delivery.
Health-tested parents
Thoughtful breeding starts with parent dogs. Sage Puppies considers health, temperament, structure, size, coat traits, and family fit when planning Havanese, Havapoo, and Cavapoo pairings.
- Breed-aware parent screening
- Temperament-focused pairing decisions
- Clear conversations about the specific puppy or litter
Vet wellness care
Puppies receive age-appropriate care before go-home. Families receive health-related information they can share with their own veterinarian after their puppy arrives.
- Veterinary wellness guidance before go-home
- Age-appropriate vaccine and deworming information when applicable
- Health records and transition notes
A clear written policy
The written agreement gives families a framework for what to do if a concern comes up. It should be read together with your reservation, go-home, and veterinary follow-up instructions.
- Review before reservation
- Keep all veterinary records
- Contact Sage Puppies promptly with concerns
Health support begins long before go-home day.
Puppy wellness is built through careful observation, clean routines, age-aware handling, and clear communication with each family. This helps buyers understand the puppy’s early start before they review the final agreement and prepare for pickup or delivery.
First Days Home
Your first vet visit is an important part of the transition.
Every family should establish care with their own veterinarian after go-home. This helps confirm your puppy’s transition, creates a medical relationship near your home, and gives you a professional resource for vaccines, nutrition, parasite prevention, and routine care.
If your veterinarian identifies a concern, contact Sage Puppies promptly and keep written documentation. The written agreement explains the exact steps, timing, and documentation needed.
For general pet health education, you can also review the AVMA pet care resource library.
Schedule your appointment
Book a new puppy wellness visit according to your veterinarian’s recommendation and the guidance provided with your puppy’s records.
Bring your go-home records
Share vaccine, deworming, wellness, food, and transition information with your veterinarian so your puppy’s care continues smoothly.
Contact us with concerns
If a health concern is identified, contact Sage Puppies promptly and keep the written veterinary findings for review under the written policy.
Clear Definitions
Health testing, vet care, and a written guarantee are related — but they are not the same thing.
Understanding the difference helps families ask better questions and make a more confident decision before applying, reserving, or preparing for delivery.
Health Testing
Screening and evaluation used to make more informed breeding decisions for parent dogs. Testing can vary by breed, parent, family line, age, and veterinary recommendation.
Veterinary Wellness Care
Care and observation puppies receive before go-home, including wellness guidance, age-appropriate records, and information families can share with their own veterinarian.
Written Guarantee
A written policy that explains what is covered, what is not covered, what documentation is needed, and what steps families should follow if a concern comes up.
Pickup + Delivery
Health information is part of go-home planning, whether you pick up locally or arrange delivery.
Sage Puppies works with families in Utah and across the country. Before your puppy comes home, we help you understand timing, records, transition care, and what to discuss with your own veterinarian.
Nationwide puppy delivery
For families outside Utah, delivery planning includes timing, preparation, health records, arrival expectations, and support before your puppy comes home.
- Go-home timing confirmed in advance
- Health and transition records provided
- Preparation guidance before arrival day
Pickup in South Jordan, Utah
Local pickup is available by appointment in South Jordan. Families receive go-home instructions, health-related records, and transition guidance before puppy comes home.
- Pickup by appointment
- Records and go-home details reviewed
- Questions welcomed before pickup day
A healthy transition includes movement, routine, and observation.
Before pickup or delivery, families should feel prepared for food transition, rest, potty routines, and the first wellness visit. Clear planning helps your puppy settle into home life with less stress.
Before You Reserve
Good questions are part of choosing a reputable breeder.
We welcome thoughtful questions about the puppy you are considering, the parents, health testing, go-home records, delivery or pickup, and the written agreement.
Before placing a reservation, review the puppy’s availability, pricing details, expected go-home timing, and written terms so you understand the next steps clearly.
