About this document

The document in detail.

The full Waitlist Kit is twelve documents. This is the 1-page version. The communication windows you have to memorize. The decision trees for "should I take this deposit." The 5 rules that hold the system together. A map of where every file lives in the kit.

It's the document you print, pin next to your desk, and reference daily without having to open any other file.

What this document does:

It compresses the operational rhythm of the entire kit into a single page, so you can find an answer in five seconds instead of opening three documents. The cheat sheet covers the standard workflows (new inquiry, litter on the way, litter born, placement done, something goes sideways) and lists the response windows that need to be memorized.

What is included:

  • The new inquiry workflow as a 6-step checklist.
  • A communication windows table covering monthly updates, litter announcements, deposit due, mid-pregnancy logistics, pick day match, go-home logistics, and pickup.
  • The "when a litter is on the way" workflow as a 7-step checklist.
  • The "when the litter is born" workflow as a 6-step checklist.
  • The "when the placement is done" workflow as a 4-step checklist.
  • A "when something goes sideways" lookup table mapping each scenario to the relevant Difficult Conversation Script.
  • The 5 operating rules of the entire system condensed to one sentence each.
  • A decision tree for "should I take this buyer's deposit" with explicit branching logic.
  • A file location map showing where every kit document lives.
  • A "when to upgrade beyond this kit" section describing the signals that mean you've outgrown spreadsheets and need a full tool.

Format and how it works:

Includes a Word version for editing and a PDF version designed to print cleanly on a single letter-sized sheet. Print at 100 percent scale and pin next to your desk or above your computer. Refer to it daily until the workflows are memorized, then refer to it weekly. Update annually if your operating windows change.

Why this listing exists:

This document ships automatically with every full Waitlist Kit bundle. The standalone listing exists for two cases. First, breeders evaluating the kit who want a single-page reference to see what the system actually looks like before committing to the full bundle. Second, mentors who want to share the system summary with a fellow breeder without giving away the full content of the working documents.

Who this is for:

For every breeder running the Waitlist Kit. Also for breeders evaluating the kit who want a one-page preview of the system before buying the bundle. If you're buying the full kit bundle, don't buy this separately. It's already inside the bundle.

Get the cheat sheet on its own for evaluation, or pair it with the rest of the Waitlist Kit at the kit price.

Updates

When the laws change, the document updates too.

You bought version 1. When a state adds a registry requirement, a new federal rule lands, or a working breeder catches something that belongs in the document, the new file shows up in your inbox. No upsell, no annual subscription, no "unlock by upgrading." The document is yours, updates included, forever.

Common questions

A few things before you buy.

The contracts were drafted with an attorney and pressure-tested across multiple working programs, but they are templates — not a substitute for a lawyer for your specific state's laws. Each file ships with a clear note about that. Most breeders use them as a starting point and have a local attorney review for state-specific edits.

DOCX + PDF. The DOCX opens in Word, Google Docs, Pages, or LibreOffice. The PDF is fill-on-screen or print-and-fill. Everything is editable.

When I ship a new version of this document, the new file lands in your inbox. Laws shift. A state adds a registry requirement. A working breeder tells me something that belongs in the document. The next version goes out to everyone who bought the previous one. No upsell, no annual subscription.

14-day no-questions-asked refund. If the documentdoesn't fit your operation, you get your money back and I'd genuinely like to hear why so the next version is better.

Yes, by a wide margin if you need more than two or three documents. The Puppy Waitlist System Kit bundles this and every other waitlist document for $22.
