We believe that proper socialization begins with good experiences from birth and that it's very important to raise the puppies in the main area of our home among our family so they know what it's like to be part of the family.  Puppies are loved and handled extensively by us and all our four children.  We do Bio Dog Exercises with our puppies as part of our socialization program. 

We release our puppies when they are between ten and twelve weeks.  We believe that this extra time with their momma and siblings greatly improves their readiness to transition to your home.  While keeping our puppies longer is a great deal of work for us, it has other benefits for your puppy as well.  It gives us extra time to give them their vaccines without having to administer them early which can cause immune disorders later in life.  They are further along in their crate training so you don't have to have so many sleepless nights listening to your puppy cry when they first come home.  All of our puppies are fully crate trained, sleeping eight hours by the time we release them.

We have excellent references you can either view on our references page, or that you can contact on your own.  We feel it's very important make sure the prospective families are well matched with our puppies.  For this reason I like to talk with you on the phone to get to know a bit about you and your family before we add you to our waiting list.  Please feel free to call or leave an email with your phone number.  I'd be happy to spend some time answering all your questions and learning about what you're looking for in your doggie companion to see if we have a wonderful best friend waiting to be adopted into your family.
