BLUEPRINT K9 PUPPY QUESTIONNAIRE
Proper and conscientious placement of our Blueprint K9 puppies is of utmost importance to us. Please fill out this questionnaire truthfully and completely. This is for us to paint a picture of what you're looking for, and for us to know if we may have what you are looking for.
Dachshunds are a wonderful breed, but they are not the right breed for everyone. The more we know about you and what you are looking for in a Dachshund, the better we can facilitate a lifelong match that is in the best interest of both our puppy/dog and you and your family.

Thank you for taking the time to complete this Questionnaire.
This questionnaire does not obligate the person filling it out nor Blueprint K9 in any way, and is not an agreement of sale. All Blueprint K9 pups/dogs are carefully placed through a screening process. Although there are certain personality and behavioral traits that can be identified as breed specific, every dog is an individual, and every family situation unique. We work hard to educate the public about this wonderful breed, and our greatest joy is the successful placement of our Blueprint K9 puppies into good loving homes.
Please email this completed questionnaire back to us and follow up with an email if you have not received a reply in a few days. There are times it goes unnoticed in our Spam folder. A phone call will be the next step once we've had time to review your questionnaire. We look forward to hearing from you again, and will be happy to discuss our breeding plans and answer your questions.
