Daily
Routines
We
start at 6:00 am, taking the puppies out to potty and play.
As soon as they get tired, they go back inside into their cages
on bath towels. In two hours, we take them out again, etc.,
etc., all day, every day, until 10:00 pm. Within 24 hours, they
are not pooping inside, and by 7 weeks of age, they are hardly
even wetting inside, especially during the day. Our
puppy runs are about 12' by 15', and 30' by 45', all patio blocked
so the puppies don't dig and get dirty, and also so the water
or urine doesn't sit in puddles for them to run through, keeping
them cleaner.
There is
a gym set, tunnel maze, slide, and kids chairs for them to climb
on and run through, and we have boxes of toys for them to play
with. It is a virtual day care center for puppies. We get the
puppies used to loud noises and crash sounds, to help them not
be afraid of storms or startling sounds. Puppies are held and
cuddled, kissed every time they are picked up, as we feel nurturing
is very important with early training. We teach them the concept
of what the word no means. They are bathed and leash broken
when they leave here, and puppies have their first shots and
worming. We send you home with pages of instructions, and go
over them with you along with showing you some simple training
and handling tips. We are also here to answer any questions
about training for the life of the dog.
Pick
up and Delivery
Although
we would rather you come here, meet us, and pick up your puppy,
sometimes that is not possible and we have to ship the puppy.
We can safely ship a puppy anywhere in the U.S. and Canada.
Our preferred method is VIP or counter to counter, as the puppies
are not sitting and waiting anywhere during the transfer of
flights at the airport. This service runs approximately $175.00,
with declared value, and the puppy is hand delivered from plane
to plane during the transfer.
Two things we insist on for any of our puppy buyers are:
No.1.
The puppy absolutely has to be a housepet. We do not sell any
of our puppies to anyone wanting an outside dog.
No.2. There has to be someone home for the puppy to keep
up with his or her schedule. A wee puppy needs to be let out
at least every 2 hours to potty, to be played with, and needs
to be fed at noon. If people work full time and still want a
puppy, they need to make arrangements for a: a good day care
center, or Gramma's house to drop the puppy off during the day.
Or b: a neighbor, friend, or relative to come and let the puppy
out, feed, walk, and play with him or her, until the puppy is
old enough to be left longer. At 12 weeks the puppy could probably
go until noon and then after work, and at 1 year, the puppy
could go almost all day. But be assured, that if you are a working
parent, your puppy needs lots of attention, love, and training,
when you are home.
