We maintain a waitlist of families who have gone through our application process.We don’t take deposits from everyone who asks — we take the time to understandwhat each family is looking for and whether we’re the right fit.
When a litter is planned, we reach out to waitlist familieswith details about the pairing, expected sizes, and timeline. Families who area good match for that litter are invited to reserve a spot.
We don’t do first-come, first-served puppy picks. We match puppies to familiesbased on temperament, lifestyle, and what we know about both the puppy and thefamily. This results in better outcomes for everyone.
Our Health Testing Program
Every breeding dog in our program is OFA-certified for hips, elbows, heart, and eyesbefore they’re ever used in a breeding. We run comprehensive genetic healthpanels on all breeding dogs to screen for 150+ heritable conditions.
All puppies receive a full veterinary health check beforegoing home, along with age-appropriate vaccinations, deworming, andmicrochipping.
Weprovide full documentation of all health testing to every family — not just asummary, but the actual results.
Our Socialization Program
We use Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS) protocols from days 3‒16 of life.
Puppies are raised in our home — not in a kennel or barn —with daily exposure to household sounds, different people, and normal familylife.
We use structured socialization checklists to ensure everypuppy is exposed to a wide range of surfaces, sounds, environments, andexperiences before they leave us.
Every puppy goes home with a detailed report of whatthey’ve been exposed to and how they responded, so new families can continuethe work.
