OUR PRIORITY
Christian and Marlise Ricker, as professional retriever breeders, uphold two primary commitments:
Priority One: To enhance the breed by ensuring the dam and sire of each litter undergo
comprehensive health testing, to produce intelligent, healthy retrievers.
Priority Two: To ensure our puppies are placed in homes that will love and care for the pup properly its entire
life.
OUR GUARANTEE
Your puppy will come with a 27-month genetic
hip and elbow guarantee, dewclaws removed, de-worming, up-to-date shots, vet examined, microchipped, and AKC Full Registration.
PUPPY DEPOSITS
A deposit is required to secure your position in the picking order for the
litter you have selected. Puppies are chosen based on their sex and color. If the number of puppies in the litter is less
than your position in the picking order, you have two options:
Waiting List: You can choose to be placed on a waiting list for the next available litter that meets your preferences.
Refund: You can
opt to have your deposit fully refunded.
PUPPY PICKING ORDER
The
order in which puppies are chosen is determined by the sequence in which we receive deposits along with the completed contract
for your specific litter.
27 MONTH GUARANTEE

the dog is, or was not obese or otherwise improperly fed. Nor signs or evidence of injury or trauma.

the dog is not being returned to Bold Bay Retrievers, the dog must be spayed or neutered at the owners' expense, and proof

The Bold Bay Retriever guarantee policy covers a refund of
the purchase price of the puppy. Any and all other expenses, including but not limited to, veterinarian fees, testing fees,
medical expenses or transportation are not covered by the guarantee nor eligible for refund. All guarantee requirements must

Although it is not mandated, Bold Bay Retrievers believes it
is a respectable practice to recognize the breeder when selecting the official AKC registered name by including the breeders’
company name. Should you use “Bold Bay” in the official naming of your pup, we offer our genuine gratitude and
our warmest “Thank You” for the acknowledgment.
