Our Breeding Practices
Behaviour and socialisation
Our dogs are part of our family! They are well socialised with other dogs and kids and are exposed to a variety of different environmental factors to reduce reactivity and create more well-rounded pups. We crate train our dogs and they will all have begun toilet training.
Health
All breeding pairs are DNA tested and clear of all major genetic risks. Our dogs have been given health checks before breeding to ensure.
Home environment
We have a HUGE yard with plenty of room. We offer our puppies and dogs plenty of enrichment and activities to keep their brains busy! They experience a variety of different environments, both indoor and outdoor with sleeping/napping offered in their crate.
Included with our puppies
All puppies will come home with a puppy pack full of goodies. We will provide photos and videos as often as our buyers want, with weekly picture updates and as much continued support as needed, once our pups have joined their new family!
