Deposits and cash flow

Deposits help you reserve puppies and smooth income before go-home, but they do not reduce the underlying cost of raising the litter. Track each deposit and balance clearly in your records and in your contract so buyers know what is owed at pickup.

Frequently asked questions

How is the suggested price calculated?
We take your total litter cost, add the profit you want to keep from the litter, then divide by the number of puppies you plan to sell. That yields a simple average list price per puppy.
What about deposits?
Deposits help cash flow, but they do not change your total cost of raising the litter. List deposits in your buyer agreements and track them in software so balances stay clear at pickup.
What is the price floor?
Here it is the average price needed to cover costs only (no extra profit). Anything below that average means the litter loses money unless you adjust spending or puppy count.
