We believe that the first 16 weeks of life are critical in the development of a puppy. Your puppy spends the first 8 weeks with us, and we want to make the perfect puppy match to allow the following 8 weeks, and beyond, a great fit for you & your family. We have specifically bred puppies to have the right temperament, intelligence, and health to be an extraordinary pet, and the fact that they are unbelievably adorable is icing on the cake! At 6 weeks old, we perform a series of tests that allow your puppy to give us a snapshot of their true temperament. Then we can match our puppies with the family that would be a good fit and the family with the puppy they want and need. We provide the testing scoresheet along with an explanation for each of the categories that we tested for.. After you have had time to read the evaluations, we schedule a Zoom call with each of our puppy families to answer questions, give suggestions, and help them be matched with one of our puppies. For example, in situations where the family is very active and always on the go, we would suggest a puppy with a medium human focus score and a medium energy score so that they are able to adjust to their owners not always being home but they can also join in on the fun when their owners want them to tag along. This allows for a more seamless transition as you bring a new pet into your home and your family dynamic.

We are now offering boarding to all of our previous puppies, Guardian Home dogs, and also doggie siblings of our previous pups. Boarding for puppy families is $50 a day and for Guardian Home dogs it is $25 a day. We provide crates, treats, toys, etc so no need to pack anything except for your pup & their food unless they are on Open Farm. They will be able to play with our dogs as well as any other visiting pups or program dogs who are with us at that time. We recognized the need for guardian dogs and their doggie siblings to have a safe environment to go for boarding. We take pride in being able to offer a comfortable and familiar location to all of our past puppies as well as program dogs. We offer boarding at both locations so depending on where you are located, we will let you know which location works best. Click the forms tab at the top of our website to fill out a boarding request form and we will be in touch within 48 hours. We will send an invoice for half of the cost to reserve your spot as spaces are limited. The other half is due at the time of pickup.

We believe in feeding the best food to our puppies and our program dogs to ensure they are getting all the nutrients they need and none of the fillers and additives that are in most dog foods. We did extensive research and sought direction from veterinarians and several canine nutritionists while exploring the best options for our pets. We knew that this needed to be a feeding choice not only for the dogs in our home, program dogs in guardian homes, but also for our puppy families. After talking through all of our options, we decided on TLC Pet Food. TLC Pet Food has had one goal since our founding in 1994; to offer well-balanced, life-enhancing pet food formulas using only the highest quality ingredients. TLC is known for its superior quality ingredients, holistic and biologically appropriate formulas, and unmatched customer service.

The health of our program dogs and our puppies is of the utmost importance. We run a full panel on all of our dogs to test for any kind of genetic conditions. We also perform OFA exams and/or x rays to ensure their hips, elbows, heart, patellas, and eyes are up to par for breeding. We provide each of our puppy family’s with a 2 year health guarantee to protect from any kind of genetic or life altering conditions. If your puppy were to have any of these conditions arise within the 2 years, we will cover vet costs up to the price in which you paid for your puppy. 

All of our puppies are raised at our home and all of our breeding dogs are family pets, first and foremost. “The Puppy Nurseries” are outfitted with cameras and individual whelping areas for each mom. It is our goal to guide, shape and mold our puppies during critical developmental periods. We expose our puppies to many sights, sounds, textures and people, at age appropriate times, to give them the best start possible.  We also begin working on potty training & crate training (we know you’ll appreciate this one) and bring in volunteers to handle and socialize our puppies, providing maximum safe socialization.
