General Information:

* We don't allow puppy visits until pups have had their first set of shots, (usually at six to seven  weeks). This is to protect the puppies from potential health issues that can be brought in from outside visitors. **Please note that we are a busy family and a visit doesn't always work with both parties schedules prior to pickup day. 

*If you can't pick up your puppy on the day they are ready to leave, there is a charge of $150/week. Puppies take a lot of work. Our pups usually always leave on a Saturday. We can usually give you a good estimate on what Saturdays they will be ready.
 

*All puppies come with limited registration. Unlimited is possible under our discretion and with an added fee.

*Please be ready for a puppy/dog prior to contacting us or scheduling a visit. We are busy and our time is valuable. If you haven't received the approval from other decision makers in the house please do that first.  

 

Our puppies come with a 26 month hip guarantee, and a one year eye guarantee. Puppies will have first set of shots, and several de-wormings prior to placement. We do not remove the dewclaws after researching their importance: http://www.mcrehabilitation.com/blog/the-function-of-dewclaws-101

Give your puppy the best possible start with our exclusive 4-week on-site training program. While your puppy stays with us, we lay a strong foundation in basic obedience, crate training, leash manners, and reliable potty training—saving you time, stress, and frustration. Through a structured daily routine and consistent, hands-on training, your puppy learns faster and develops great habits from the very beginning. We also focus on positive socialization and real-life exposure, helping your puppy grow into a confident, well-adjusted companion. You’ll receive regular updates along the way, and when your puppy goes home, they’ll already be on the right track—making the transition smoother and more enjoyable for your whole family. This program is perfect for busy owners or anyone who wants a head start with a well-mannered, easy-to-manage puppy. The 4 week training program allows your puppy to stay here, which is very beneficial in getting a head start with training prior to living with their new family. Your puppy's stay includes their second and possibly third vaccine, full care board, (food and training treats provided). Our introductory rate is $2000/month. The pups balance due must be paid prior to starting the training program

Going on vacation? Let us take care of your dog while you're away and give them some extra training. Our board and train program provides your dog with a comfortable stay and focused training sessions.
