While we would love to keep each and every one of our little darling puppies,
unfortunately we cannot. We do have puppies available from time to time.
Female Biewers are harder to come by because there just aren't as many born
as males and often they are kept by the breeders.
Please give equal consideration to male and female puppies. The males do not
mark if they are neutered when they are young and have not learned that
practice yet! Males tend to want to be with you more, are more loving and are
not as independent as the females.
On occasion, we do have tiny puppies however, we most certainly do not breed
for that particular size on purpose.

If and when we do have tiny pups, we most certainly do not refer to them as
"Tea-Cups". Keep in mind that the term widely used describing some Biewer's
as Tea Cups is NOT a term that reputable breeders use. There is NO
SUCH THING as a teacup Biewer! These are terms that certain breeders
use to increase interest in their dogs (and most always the price). Ask me for a
tea cup and I will most likely pour you a cup of coffee and give you a 20 minute
dissertation on "teacups"! ;-) If you would like information on "SO CALLED"

I am quite often asked if Biewers are toy, standard, teacup, babydoll or
miniature. The Biewer is in the TOY or Companion Group. Some Biewers
are smaller than others. The breed standard weight for the Biewer,
recommended by the RVD/UCI and the Biewer Breed Club International,
should be between 4 and no more than 7 lbs.

We will only sell Biewer pups with full registration papers for show/breeding if
they are of breeding/show quality. That said... we are VERY particular about
who will get a Biewer from us.
I do not condone in any way mixing breeds. We, as well as all members of the
BBCI breed exclusively purebred Biewer to Biewer. We are the only club in
the United States that from it's inception has bred Biewer to Biewer only and
we are very proud of that accomplishment.
Please be advised that I will not sell any Biewer puppy for breeding/showing
purposes to anyone who has intentions now or in the future to breed this pup to
a Yorkshire Terrier or any other breed for that matter.
All Almost Heaven Biewer pups will be under a very strict contract
prohibiting any mixing of breeds whether you believe the Biewer to be a
Yorkshire Terrier of a different color or not. It is MY belief as well as the
Biewer Club that I belong too from it's inception that the Biewer is a breed of
it's own, having it's own standard in Germany and the United States and
NOT a Yorkshire Terrier of a different color or a variant of the Yorkshire
Terrier.

All pet quality pups will be sold on a strict spay and neuter contract to prevent
irresponsible breeding if they have not been already spayed and or neutered
before leaving my home. Buyers will be given registrations for pet quality pups
from the Biewer Breed International Registry (BBIR) and designated as NOT
FOR BREEDING.
All of our Show/breeding quality Biewers will be dual registered in the Germany
and the Biewer Breed Club International (BBCI) here in the United States of
America.
We maintain strict records and adhere to the Code of Ethics that the BBCI has
set forth for us as breeders.
Our Biewers and their pups are healthy, beautiful, sound and have loving,
wonderful temperaments. We temperament test our pups at 45 days.
Temperament testing helps us match our pups to the family's that wish
to adopt them.

Our pups are raised in our home and under foot. They are whelped in my
bedroom and stay there next to my bed for 2 weeks. After that they have their
own puppy bedroom until they are old enough and big enough to be with the other
fur-family! In their puppy room they have music, television for stimulation and a 2
compartment whelping box for the beginning stages of early potty training.
We feed them only the highest quality puppy foods to ensure they have the best
start in life. When they are old enough, they are moved to the family room to be
properly socialized. I have a large home so all of the rooms are equipped with
digitally recorded video surveillance system so I can watch the pups and adult
dogs anywhere I am including our cars and cell phones. I love technology! I have
4 computers and a laptop in my home so I can see them at all times. While I am at
work I have constant monitoring of my home and pups and my housekeeper takes
good care of them while she is here!

I will put interested parties on a waiting list. A $500.00 deposit is required to
hold a Biewer puppy and is NON-REFUNDABLE. If you would like your
deposit to go towards a future litter, that is acceptable. The balance is due in
cash when the puppy is picked up. I WILL NOT take deposits before the
puppy reaches 8 weeks of age. After that, I will take your deposit to hold your
puppy until it reaches it's proper age to leave. Deposits are taken on a first
come first serve basis for picking out your puppy. That means, whomever gives
us the first deposit has the first pick AFTER Almost Heaven Biewers has
chosen any puppy we want may want to keep.

If a congenital defect is found or death should occur, you must notify me
immediately. In the event of death of puppy, the Buyer (at Buyer's expense) must
provide us a letter stating cause of death from the attending veterinarian along
with a copy of necropsy report. I will not cover the death of any puppy due to
Hypoglycemia, neglect or gosh forbid...abuse. :-( These steps are to make you
aware that I am a caring breeder who is willing to back up my pups. It also
ensures that I will be notified of any hereditary defects so I can alter my
breeding program if necessary.
If the cause of death is found to be due to a congenital medical condition and my
vet is in agreement, a replacement puppy of the same quality will be arranged. If
one is not available at that time, I will replace it from the next litter of equal
quality. All veterinary bills are the responsibility of the buyer.

We sell our pups at 12 weeks of age or older if they are small. I will never sell a
pup before 12 weeks so please... don't ask! As founding members of the BBCI,
we follow the BBCI guidelines to a T.
As stated above... all pups will have been vet checked at least twice, had at
least their first set of shots, are wormed 3 times, fecal tested, ears and eyes and
knees checked, random bile acid tested and are structurally evaluated.
We put a great deal of time, money, love and attention into our breeding
program. We reserve the right to not let a puppy go to it's forever home until we
and our vet are in agreement that it is ready to leave our home. We reserve the
right to not let a puppy go if we do not feel that it is that pups best interest to go
there. Under our contract, you must take your new baby to your vet within (3)
days of adoption.

Biewer's can be HIGH MAINTAINENCE especially if you keep them in
coat! Biewers are simply gorgous but they aren't for everyone so do your
homework. We encourage our buyers to come and sit with the pups. Your puppy
will pick you as much as you pick them! They will steal your heart so be careful!!

In order to give our pups the best possible start in their new homes we send a
puppy care package that includes useful information about the Biewer breed,
some valuable information on grooming, feeding, potty training, and how to tape
the ears if it is necessary.
Also included are Wee Wee pads for training, our contract, the pups
health records, BBIR registration (or a promise of) registration papers (pending
spay/neuter if necessary). We supply a bag of food with our pups, a bed, a
blanket and toys that they love. New things are added to the puppy packs every
time! They will be groomed, perfumed, and ready to go! If I am really organized
I will give you pictures too!

My name is Molly Forman and I am owned by my exquisite Biewer's and my
beautiful Yorkshire Terrier's .
I am proud and honored to be on the Executive Committee of what I think is
the finest Biewer Club in the United States of America, The BBCI ~ Biewer
Breed Club International. I am also a member in good standing in the
RVD/UCI in Germany.
I am in training to show my beautiful dogs in conformation and showed my
first Biewers last spring and fall in Virginia.
We strictly follow the breed order, code of conduct and club objectives of the
BBCI. I invite you to join our clubs Biewer Fanciers Forum to see many
beautiful pictures and learn about the breed from some of the most highly
respected, highly regarded and ethical Biewer Fanciers and companion Biewer
owners in the United States, Canada and abroad.
We spare no expense for our Biewers. We do DNA testing on all of our
breeding pairs. Our Biewer pairs are tested for Liver Shunt by doing random
Bile Acid testing and all are Liver Shunt free. All pups are random Bile Acid
tested, wormed 3 times, fecal tested at least twice and vet checked at least
twice before leaving my home.
We have a one year Health Guarantee for all genetic defects. My pups are
raised in my home under foot. My furbabies sleep in my bed, they warm my
heart! They are not kennel kept. I sell my puppies at twelve weeks of age or
later depending on size, temperament and recommendation of my veterinarian.
My Biewers are all well behaved, beautiful and wonderful representations of
the Breed Standard. Any Almost Heaven Biewer puppy always has a home to
come back to if for any reason the adoptive parents can no longer keep them. If
there are any questions please feel free to call me. Below you will find all the
necessary information that you'll need to adopt a Biewer pup from me!
I am easier to reach on the phone than I am on email. I am a very busy person
because of my fur-babies, my business's, my affiliation with my Breed Club
and last but not least my family! :-) I am usually up late so feel free to call
anytime between 9 am and 9 pm.

| Male or Female? |
| What are Biewers? |
The Biewer (pronounced Bee-va) originated in Hunsruck, Germany, in 1984.
Werner and Gertrude Biewer bred the first Biewer through a gene mutation,
also known as a recessive piebald gene, in their Yorkshire Terriers.
The master parents were "Darling von Friedheck" and "Fru Fru von Friedheck".
Both dogs were blue and tan and were world youth winners in 1981 at
Dortmund. Their breeding brought the first blue, white, and golden Biewer
Yorkshire, "Schneeflocken von Friedheck", born in January of 1984.
Mr. Biewer continued breeding his colored Yorkies to achieve their white
bellies and four white paws. In 1989, the Biewer was accepted as its own breed
with the ACH German e.V.
The breed standard is that of a Yorkshire Terrier except for the coloring and
the full tail. The head must have three colors: black or blue, white, and gold in
good symmetry. The belly, chest, legs, and the tip of the tail are white. The tail
is full. The back is blue or black with white in it. The hair is silky. Just like in
Yorkshires the black on the pup generally turns blue with age. Sometimes it
does not change!

| Full or Limited Registration? |
in comparison, Biewer prices are considerably higher than a Yorkshire Terrier.
My prices are not determined until the pups are evaluated for structure,
soundness, health and temperament.
I have noticed that Biewer's as in many breeds, will range in price usually based
on pedigree, registrations, health checks, vaccination protocol, micro chipping,
markings on the body, and the estimated adult size... etc.
On average, a good pet quality Biewer usually ranges around $2000 and
upwards. Yet there are some adorable larger (pet) Biewers who's price may be
set a little lower in hopes of finding the perfect forever home. I would not expect
to pay under $3000 for a show/breeding quality male pup and $3500 and up for a
female.

Any Biewer pup that must be re-homed for what ever reason by the buyer
must be returned to Almost Heaven Biewers and will be re-homed or kept
by us. Any proceeds from the sale of the pup will be given to the buyer
(minus any expenses involved in the subsequent re-sale of said pup).
This measure alleviates the chance for any of my pups to be re-sold to puppy
mills, brokers, auctioneers, pet shops, unscrupulous breeders or breeders that
do not mirror my very strict ethics... people we choose not to sell our pups
too.
As you can imagine... This is MOST IMPORTANT to me!!!!
This TRULY breaks my heart ... but the word must be told....
In an effort to educate you about these terrible people you will see why I am
so VERY particular about where my precious pups go. One of my pups must
NEVER EVER end up in a place like this!!! :-(
I think it is imperative to let people know what is happening out there to
the babies that get in the wrong hands and strictly for GREED. Thinking
of buying from a Pet Shop? This is where your pup will come from, or one
just like it or much much worse! Turn up the volume ...

Puppy Supplies
Believe it or not, Biewers are already in puppy mills! They buy whole litters
from brokers or shady breeders here in teh USA and in Germany or purchase
pups or adults one by one from unsuspecting breeders who are unaware of who
is buying. If breeders do not have iron clad contracts to protect their dogs, they
CAN end up like these poor dogs. Please, please, please... spread the word.
DO NOT buy from Pet Stores, puppy mills, unscrupulous breeders and Amish
puppy farms.
