—————————————————————————————————————————-

Socialization is about exposing your puppy gradually and systematically to different types of people, places, things, surfaces,noises, touch (from you and strangers), other dogs and other species of animals.

Socialization is all about setting the dog up for success introducing them to each new situation in such a manner that they will not be afraid. My puppies leave here confident, happy, people oriented, and eager to learn.

I offer Registry AMRA and/or UKC, DNA with proof of parentage(Once proof of spay/neuter by a licensed vet has been provided, never before that), one year life threatening genetic guarantee with contract, I remove their dewclaws (sometimes they reappear, so I don’t guarantee dewclaws),worm at 3,6,and 8 weeks old, vaccinate @ 9 weeks ,they go home anywhere from 10-12 weeks old, unless they are ready before or later if they are not fully weaned. They go to a licensed vet before they leave to go to your home, and they are accompanied by a health certificate.

 

I take weekly videos of the puppies so that the parents can see how they are doing, and how their personality is progressing. As a courtesy, I teach them basic obedience training (not guaranteeing results, since obedience must be maintained by owner adopting) pee- pee pad and outside potty training, socialization.
