WHAT WE YOU LOOKING FOR IN A HOME ?

We are looking for homes that have some experience with the breed or similar breeds. Homes that will take the time for an active dog that will need training and exercise.

​

WHEN CAN I TAKE MY PUPPY HOME ?

We like puppies to go to their new homes at 8 weeks. If the puppies stay in the litter too long they start to develop a pecking order and a strong pattern of dominant or submissive behaviors around their littermates. These carry over when they leave and can be a source of social and behavioral problems later on. Socialization of dogs with other dogs comes first (from three to six weeks), and socialization of the dogs with people comes next (from six to 14 weeks). If puppies do not have a chance to start socialization during these time periods then the chance that the dogs will ever be properly socialized becomes small indeed. A poorly socialized dog is apt to be more fearful and will have difficulty fitting in the world of dogs or people, which means that it is not likely to succeed as either a pet or a working dog

​

WHAT WILL YOU BE DOING FOR MY PUPPY BEFORE IT COMES HOME ?

We start our puppies on socializing before puppies go to their new homes.
