Converse Premium Labs seeks to provide our CPL families with checks and services that most other breeders do not provide. The following is a list of information about what you can expect to get when you purchase your next puppy from Converse Premium Labs.
Converse Premium Labs normally have 3 to 5 litters a year. Depending on the year, time of the year, we may have more or less. Females who live together often cycle together, so it is not uncommon for us to have more than one litter on ground at a time, or one shortly after another.
2025 Litter Prices: $2000.00*
(*First price increase since 2021!)
$350.00 deposit to secure your puppy
Converse Premium Labs preferred online payment method is Venmo. CPL also uses Cash App and accepts Major Credit/Debit Cards. Please note that our clients are responsible for any fees for using these services.
Deposits for our puppies are non-refundable. Once we accept your deposit we turn away potential buyers securing your puppy(ies). Please contact us for additional information.
(Our deposit policy is as follows: once we receive the deposit one's puppy is secured and the new CPL Family member is placed on the “Wait List." At the time of the deposit, we request the client’s information: name, address, phone#, email address, the litter they are interested in, and their color and gender preference. Our clients will select their puppy(ies) in the order in which we receive their deposits. If at one's selection time their particular preference of puppy isn't available but there are puppies available to choose, the client has the option of selecting any available puppies from the current litter, any other puppies that CPL may currently have available, or they can roll their deposit to a future litter for one year from the date of the deposit.)
Converse Premium Labs reserves the right of the first pick from any litter. These decisions are typically made prior to breeding/whelping.
