Our puppies are born inside with us and stay inside until 3 weeks. We handle them multiple times a day. We take extra care to give a shy puppy extra attention, so that in general our puppies are even natured and social.

Our mums are a picture of health due to their premium diet and unlimited exercise. Adults are wormed and receive parasite protection regularly and puppies are wormed every 2 weeks from birth.…
