Submit your application to join our waiting list. Applications are necessary to ensure your commitment and capability to provide a safe, loving environment for a Shiloh.
Connect
We'll schedule a phone call to discuss your interest and lifestyle. It's ok if the time is not right NOW, that does not mean the time will never be right! We are happy to support whatever avenue is right for your family.
Wait!
Finalize contract and deposit and follow along with our litter posts, weekly growth updates, Pre-Puppy Send Home Meeting, and other announcements. This is always the longest and hardest wait!
Pick Up
After the LER at 7 weeks, a puppy will be chosen for you that is best matched for what your goals are. Puppies must be picked up from our home in Pennsylvania, no earlier than 8 weeks of age.
Future
All of our puppies must be holtered between 5 and 12 months of age. We will keep in contact and encourage lifetime connection and updates, we want to be like family and continue to provide support!

Application FAQs
What is the application timeline?
We typically begin reviewing applications 4-6 weeks before a litter is born. This allows us to ensure a thorough vetting process and find the best match for our puppies before it is time for them to go home. However, you may submit an application at any time, even if you are not ready for another year or more. It is common for many of our owners to wait until after a big life event like moving to say they are ready!
What are the selection criteria?
We prioritize applicants who are prepared for a long-term commitment. This includes a stable home environment, a genuine love for Shiloh Shepherds, and a clear understanding of the breed's unique needs and temperament. We want to ensure both you and your puppy are set up for a lifetime of success and happiness together.
What are the next steps after submitting an application?
After your application is received, we will contact you to schedule a brief phone call. We will review your home environment as you described it and discuss your goals for the puppy to ensure a perfect fit.
Do you offer a puppy health guarantee?
Yes, we provide a comprehensive health guarantee for all puppies. This includes a health certificate, a health history, and a lifetime support line for any questions regarding your puppy's health. We guarantee your puppy will be free from communicable diseases at time of purchase, have a 2 year health guarantee for congenital defects, and also have a lifetime puppy take-back clause, meaning if for any reason at any point in your life you are no longer able to provide proper care for your Shiloh, we will take them back into our home to ensure their continued safety and success. This way, none of our Shilohs can end up in a shelter or bad situation.
