If you are not certain you are ready for a puppy or if the Shiloh Shepherd is the right breed of dog for you, please Contact Us for more information.

Application (Pre-Adoption Questionnaire) - When you have decided that a Solace Shilohs puppy is right for you, please  read, fill out our interactive pre-adoption questionnaire and email or print and mail to us-- be as specific as you can about what you are looking for in a pup as well as your experience with previous dogs.  It must be received with either a deposit or prepayment to go on our puppy lists.  The mailing address is listed as a footer on each page.  You can also print and fill out the non-interactive pre-adoption questionnaire.

Once prepayment (full price secures your place on a puppy list) or deposit ($500) is received by Solace Shilohs,  you will receive email updates (done via bcc for privacy) on all the breeding activities that take place here.  You will find out as soon as a bitch goes into heat, when they are bred, when they whelp and you will get photo updates (via slideshows on flickr.com) at birth and approximately every 2 to 3 weeks of the pups.  The litter will be evaluated around 8 weeks of age and puppies will be matched with the families immediately following.  It is important for you to be very clear on what you are looking for and where you can be flexible. 

Please note that contracts and agreements must be read, filled out and signed by buyer and complete payment received by Solace Shilohs two weeks prior to the litter evaluation.  Failure to do so may impact your getting a puppy from your chosen litter and you may have to wait for the next available litter.  Puppies will be ready to go to their new homes two days following the litter evaluation.  Please make sure that you provide a phone number to Solace for the puppy placement phone call.
