We raise our puppies right in our home, not in a kennel. Because we only have a few litters each year, we carefully set up a special puppy area in our great room before each litter arrives and take it down once the puppies go to their forever families.

Puppies are especially vulnerable in their early weeks since their immune systems are still developing. They haven’t built up resistance to viruses and parasites, which makes them more susceptible to illnesses. One particularly dangerous virus is parvovirus (parvo), which can cause severe illness and even be fatal to puppies.

To keep our puppies safe and healthy, we don’t allow in-person visits. Allowing foot traffic into our home can unintentionally introduce harmful germs and compromise not just one litter, but our entire breeding program.

Instead, we offer scheduled FaceTime calls so families can meet the puppies virtually, ask questions, and watch their personalities blossom as they grow. This way, you can still feel connected while we keep the puppies’ environment safe.

Thank you so much for understanding and supporting the health and well-being of our little ones.
