If you’ve considered making a Royal T Mi-Ki puppy one of your future furry family members, now is a great time to fill out our Questionnaire and consider placing a deposit for one of our current puppies or upcoming litters. The form can be found at the bottom of this page.
Deposit Policy and Puppy Selection Process
A $300 non-refundable deposit places you in the choosing queue for our current and upcoming litters. We will start contacting the interested breeders regarding their selections and will begin releasing the puppies to our pet waitlist soon. It’s also possible to place a deposit to be in the choosing queue for future litters. The $300 deposit goes towards the purchase price of $3,400.
Breeding rights are an extra $1,500. Breeding requirements and deposits are listed at the bottom of this page. To promote a quality gene pool, established breeders will have the option to make selections before pet deposits. Very few dogs actually end up going to breeders.
Premium hand delivery options are available for an extra fee to your nearest airport. The service is $500, plus roundtrip airfare, and a one-way in-cabin pet ticket.

Tootsie + Cosmo – The Memorable Litter – DOB April 21, 2023
Tootsie and Cosmo had beautiful boys. One is white like Cosmo and one is black and white. These boys are long coats. We may consider putting one of them in a partner home (i.e., with Diana.)
Micah – White chocolate long-coat male – four weeks old – Charting at 4.75 pounds – on hold
Micah has very little cream spotting on him. Now that Micah has opened his eyes, it appears that he is a white chocolate (with light eyes and brown nose leathers and paw pads.) He’s beautiful. He will be considered for a partner breeding home locally. We’ve also had breeder/show interest in him, therefore, he may not be available as a pet. We are testing him for blue.
Maddox – Black and white long-coat male – four weeks old – charting at 4.75 pounds – available for breeder and/or deposit list selection
Maddox has beautiful markings. He carries chocolate and clear red by parentage and could also carry blue. We are currently testing him for blue. He could carry smooth.
Brighton + Harley – DOB May 7, 2023 – the “Notable” Litter
Brighton and Harley had four girls and a boy! These puppies all carry clear red (or are clear red) and could possibly carry tan points and smooth. They were all tested for chocolate. For interested breeders, additional testing may be performed for a fee with instant results as the DNA already sitting at the lab at Animal Genetics.
Nalani – White long-coat female – two weeks old – charting at 4.5 pounds – On Hold
Nalani is Hawaiian and it means “serenity of the skies.” Nalani will likely be going to Cindy as a breeding candidate. Her DNA was tested and she carries chocolate. She is a clear red. She could possibly carry tan points and smooth as well.
Nilla – Buff/cream long-coat female – two weeks old – charting at 4.5 pounds
Nilla is named after vanilla wafers as she looks about the same color. Nilla’s DNA was tested and she is a chocolate carrier. She could also carry tan points and smooth. She is a clear red.
Nyla – Brindle long-coat female – two weeks old – charting at 5.25 pounds
Nyla means “achiever” and “the successful one.” Since she looks just like her father, we’re hoping she might be a future champion like he is. Nyla carries clear red but does not carry chocolate. She could possibly carry tan points and smooth.
Nova – Parti sable long-coat female – two weeks old – charting at 5.5 pounds
Nova means “new” and is also a term for a bright star, which we are sure this pretty girl will be! Nova is not a chocolate carrier but carries clear red and could possibly carry tan points and/or smooth.
Nico – Cream long-coat male – two weeks old – charting at 5.25 pounds
Nico means “victory of the people.” Anyone who has had the privilege of being owned by a Mi-Ki boy knows this is a true statement! I think we see a future champion in this boy’s future… Nico was DNA tested and is a chocolate carrier. He is a clear red and could possibly carry tan points and smooth as well. Additional tests may be performed for interested breeders. Even though he was too sleepy for his photo shoot this week, you can see he’s a very handsome boy.
Lucy + Louie and/or Cosmo – DOB May 8, 2023 – the “Opportune” Litter
This is a new pairing for us. Lucy and Louie can produce long-coat sables and black and tans that can be solid or particolored. Cosmo decided to take a shot with Lucy as well, so we will see who is the winning sire! If these are Cosmo puppies, they will likely be black and white long coats. Considering that none of them inherited tan points like their mother and none are sables, perhaps they are Cosmo’s pups.
Oreo – black and white long-coat male – two weeks old – charting at 3.5 pounds – Available for breeders or pet deposit list selection
Yes, I know “Oreo” is a little cliche for a black and white dog, but since we’re on the letter “O,” this is where we’ve landed. Oreo is a handsome little guy who is relaxed as long as he’s cozy and warm. I love his markings. Oreo could possibly carry blue and/or chocolate. He carries tan points.
Obie – black tuxedo long-coat male – two weeks old – charting at 3.75 pounds – Available for breeders or pet deposit list selection
Obie is just a little guy but is no longer the tiniest. He’s doing great. Obie has a shiny black coat and a big white V down his chest. He has a beautiful head. Obie could possibly carry blue and/or chocolate. He carries tan points.
Ollie – black tuxedo long-coat male – two weeks old – charting at 4.5 pounds – Available for breeders or pet deposit list selection
Ollie isn’t in a hurry to face the world as he’s just now thinking about opening his eyes today. This matches his relaxed, laid-back personality. Ollie has some longer white stockings on his feet and cool markings on his chest. It almost looks like he has a little bowtie on his tuxedo! He has a nice glossy coat. Even though he’s technically the biggest in the litter, he’s still charting small at just 4.5 pounds, but he is trending upwards. Obie could possibly carry blue and/or chocolate. He carries tan points.
Onyx – black tuxedo long-coat female – two weeks old – charting at 3.5 pounds – available for pet deposit list
Onyx is pretty like her mama with a gorgeous head. Her coat seems a bit more wavy than her brothers’. Onyx is not a chocolate carrier but will likely end up too small for breeding anyway. As her name implies, she is a gorgeous gem.
Gabriella + Cosmo – DOB May 24, 2023 – The “Pocket full of Posies” Litter
We have decided to do a repeat pairing with Gabriella and Cosmo for another chance at blue Mi-Kis since we’re so pleased with how their daughter Zelda has turned out. Gabby and Cosmo are both in the 4-pound range, so their puppies are not likely to be very large.
Gayla Vieta is most likely going to be picking one of these puppies as Gabby is out of her beloved Catalaya/Happy Dancer lines. She’s been on the breeder waitlist for one of these pups since before Gabriella had her first litter, so at least one is spoken for. Anne, who has also been on our waitlist for a long time, is also interested in these puppies, so both may be spoken for.
Periwinkle – Blue parti long-coat female – one day old – weighed 4.3 ounces at birth – on hold
Periwinkle is only the second blue dog we’ve produced here at Royal T Mi-Kis – the first being her full sister Zelda. So Periwinkle is very special indeed. Periwinkle is the only name for blue that starts with a “P” we could come up with, and we think it’s kind of cute. She was probably the one holding up the delivery as her head was very flat and wedge-shaped at birth. Thankfully, it’s already rounded out nicely and she’s a gorgeous girl. We look forward to seeing her grow and hopefully be big enough to breed.
Petunia – Black and white long-coat female – one day old – weighed 4.2 ounces at birth – on hold
Petunia is our second gorgeous girl with a short muzzle and a pretty head. She carries clear red, likely carries blue, and could possibly carry chocolate. It took a long time to resuscitate Petunia after she was born, so I’m proud of her for being a fighter and nursing so well on her first day outside the womb.
Upcoming Litters
Dresden + Cosmo – due approximately June 5, 2023
Dresden is Li’l Louis’ littermate. We paired her with Cosmo as they both carry blue. They can produce blue or black/white long-coat puppies. All of the puppies will be clear red and tan points carriers. Dresden is looking nice and pregnant.
Cara Mia + Harley – approximate due date July 30, 2023
If you like the Bitsy/Harley puppy combination, you’ll likely love these puppies too since Cara and Bitsy are full sisters. Cara and Harley can produce white/cream, tricolor, sable, black, and brindles. They can produce both long and smooth-coat puppies.
Planned Litters
Bitsy will cycle again this summer. Bernadette is expected to cycle soon and we hope to have more smooth-face Mi-Kis from her. Umber just turned one and will be paired with Cosmo once she passes the rest of her health screening tests and has her second cycle. Yohanna will likely have her second cycle in November and will be paired with Cosmo or one of our suitable newer young studs. Isabelle and Cocoa Chanel will also be ready for pairings in the fall. See Our Dogs for more information.
Interested in a puppy?
Scroll to the bottom of this page to fill out our questionnaire to show that you’re interested in being contacted for future litters. You may also choose to fill out the adoption questionnaire here, so we can get to know you and your needs.
Feel free to look through our Previous Puppies page to get an idea of what our current or future puppies might look like as they mature.
The Adoption Process
Royal T Mi-Kis makes every effort to ensure our puppies are matched with the right family for a lifetime of mutual enjoyment. The first step towards adopting a Mi-Ki is to fill out our adoption questionnaire (see below) which will help us understand what you are looking for in a Mi-Ki.
We’ll exchange emails, chat on the phone, or even set up a Zoom meeting to get to know each other. Next, a $300 non-refundable deposit will place you in the choosing queue. The deposit goes towards the $3,400 purchase price.
When the puppies are old enough to determine traits (usually around 4-6 weeks), established breeders will have the first choice followed by pet deposits. We will contact you when it’s your time to select a puppy. If you decide to wait for a future litter, you’ll move up in the choosing queue behind others who may have also passed.
What’s Included?
Your Mi-Ki puppy will have a veterinary examination, first shots, a microchip, dewormings, dewclaw removal, and an airline-approved carrier. We also throw in a bunch of puppy supplies to help your young Mi-Ki get off to a great start!
Our Mi-Ki puppies are started on puppy pad training. Our puppies now have their first month with their new families covered by Trupanion Pet Insurance. Trupanion will pay your provider directly for any extra care needed for their first 30 days.
Puppies will be released to their new homes at around 10 weeks of age or 2 pounds. Small for gestational age or preemie puppies may need to be held for additional time. We can coordinate a puppy nanny to fly a puppy to your nearest airport for $400 plus airfare (to include an in-cabin pet ticket plus the courier’s ticket.)
Puppies may also be picked up by their new owners from our home or from Denver International Airport. Puppies should fly home on a direct flight if at all possible.
Restrictions
We are unable to facilitate young puppy adoptions to Hawaii due to the state’s rabies/quarantine regulations. Only available adult Mi-Kis or older puppies are eligible to be adopted to Hawaii if the short quarantine protocol (5 days) can be met with daily visits to the quarantine holding facility by the adoptive family.
Please note that international adoptions will require an additional $200 surcharge for extra paperwork fees, extended boarding, and vaccination requirements. Most international destinations require a rabies vaccination and puppies to be at least 16 weeks of age.
Breeding Information
Breeders looking for puppies will have to be approved by the originators of our lines before we can sell a puppy with breeding rights. Established breeders will be given priority over pet owners to ensure that breed-standard/show-quality Mi-Kis stay in the gene pool.
We reserve the right to keep a puppy for our breeding program if circumstances require it. A deposit refund or replacement puppy will be offered instead.
Breeder Requirements
Breeding rights are an additional $1,500 for approved kennels or new breeders that are willing to be mentored. Breeders agree to perform AMRA health testing recommendations and will abide by the American Mi-Ki Club Code of Ethics for breeding and responsible placement.
Breeder Deposits
- Ms. P – Waiting for a blue or blue carrier male from Cosmo – (Lucy/Gabby are too closely related)
- Gayla – Gabriella/Cosmo puppy.
- Tracy K. – Smooth-face female – no smooth females this round.
- Bonnie – unrelated male, blue carrier
- Cindy – White female, considering the cream female as well
- Jennifer – Chocolate female, unrelated to Sebastian. Also likes Micah.
- Jodi – deposit taken, but not sure we have something that will work for her.
- Diana – smaller therapeutic male – keeping him intact for Royal T stud use
- Sandra T. – new breeder. Wants a white female.
Pedigrees of the parents may be viewed on the Our Dogs Page to determine breeding compatibility. Any puppies sold for breeding out of Belle Amie or Jubilee lines will require approval from Barbara Teichner and/or Barbara Briggs. Additionally, any future puppies produced from these lines are contractually bound to be granted permission before selling to other breeders.
Please note that established breeder deposits will take precedence over pet picks in order to preserve the Mi-Ki gene pool. Breeders are often looking for something quite specific such as a particular color, pedigree, ear set, size, being a carrier of certain traits, and excellent conformation. Because of these preferences, chances are that most of our puppies will be going to pet homes.
Don’t forget to check us out on our YouTube Channel for additional videos of the puppies!
