Gotcha! Day
- What is Gotcha! Day?
Gotcha! Day is a playful term Breeders, Shelters, and Rescues use to describe the day puppies get adopted. It alludes to the adopter choosing a companion for life.
How to prepare
Before you come to pick up your puppy make sure you have:
A way to safely transport a puppy, either with a seat belt tether, harness, crate, etc. Check out our recommendations for car transportation →.
If you’re taking a long trip, be sure to carry a water bowl or collapsible bowl for water.
You can opt for a car seat cover just in case the puppy has an accident or car sickness.
Bring cleaning supplies for puppy accidents.
Make sure the person on the name of the Puppy Application is present; if you have someone picking up for you, please fill out a Puppy Transporter Form → with the name and details of the transporter or family member.
Bring treats and create positive and loving associations with you and your family from the start.
When?
Puppies go home at 8 weeks old.
Where?
Snow Peak Paws is based in Lebanon Oregon, once you’ve filled out the application and have reserved a puppy, Cat and Anne will share their address for you to pick up your puppy.
