Mom sees the vet PRIOR to being bred to ensure good health and hips, and is given added raw meat, eggs and supplements to her diet to keep her healthy. Mom may be given an ultrasound to confirm pregnancy and a ROUGH puppy count. X-RAY radiation is TOXIC and should NOT be done unless there is an emergency! All our moms deliver NATURALLY, and once born started on extra supplements.

Any puppy with a POTENTIAL birth defect, or otherwise unwell vettable condition sees the vet asap. Our vet is ONLY 5 minutes away. Puppies are naturally wormed and immune system strengthened using special supplements to help keep their systems functioning at PEAK condition. Fecal samples are professionally done at 7 weeks and any positive samples are re-tested a week later after litter treatment. Puppies receive their first round of vaccines and a vet check at 7 weeks old. Vet checks head to toe and heart/breathing, and notes ANY conditions found.

Really it depends on the dog mama and her comfort level, but generally 10 days of age or older is fine for adults, and 5 weeks or older for families with kids under the age of 8. We do ask for groups of more than 4 that you either rotate visitors in the puppy room (you are more than welcome to hang out upstairs and have snacks and drinks while you wait). By 6 weeks of age we CAN accommodate groups of 4-6 people in the puppy room. If your group is larger, we will work together to find a comfortable solution.

Starting at 14 days of age, puppies are started on potty training with a hay box. This hay is grown in our fields with NO chemicals – it’s the SAME GRASS all over our property and directly replicates the smell of outdoors. Starting at 5-6 weeks, puppies are introduced to the potty bell and going outside to potty. Our puppy room perfectly simulates a home, and puppies are worked with every 2 hours where they are let out to potty and allowed free roam of their puppy room – giving them the FREEDOM to make the RIGHT CHOICE on where to potty. This ENSURES they are 90-100% POTTY TRAINED by the time they go home! IT WORKS!

Puppies are started on basic commands such as “sit”, and taught NOT TO CHEW furniture, people or JUMP AND BITE faces. I am constantly working with them to ensure proper behavior when they go home.

Your puppy comes with a booklet from our vet with proof of their vaccinations and ANY medical anomalies the vet finds. Out of state puppies that fly will ALSO receive a microchip. All puppies come with a puppy take-home bag, filled with an assortment of toys and teethers, a 5lb bag of food, a fancy collar or bling AND a booklet with ALL the info on the parents (health and color testing as well as personality). You are also given a TRAINING AND CARE GUIDE SO PLEASE READ IT. It’s written JUST FOR YOU BY ME. Your puppy ALSO comes 90-100% potty trained!

Puppies can go home NO EARLIER than 8 weeks of age. This gives their vaccines a week to adjust in their bodies. REMEMBER – vaccines are only the start of immunity and a puppy can STILL GET SICK once taken home, so do not bring them in areas other dogs have been until they have had their 2nd round of shots. Any puppies held LONGER THAN 9 WEEKS will be charged an additional fee of $25/day so PLAN AHEAD WITH TRAVEL PLANS

YES! From time to time we DO have customers that feel MORE CONFORTABLE with their own vet administering meds or vaccines and we RESPECT YOUR CHOICE. Please let us know from DAY 1 that this is your plan! Your puppy will STILL be examined thoroughly by our vet and still come with an (empty) vaccine book. You WILL need to sign a waiver stating that you will be doing your own healthcare program at home.
