Do all puppies raised get the Puppy Culture program?

How often do females come in season?
- Female dogs come in season approximately every 6 - 9 months. The heat cycle lasts 3 weeks
How long is a dog pregnant?
- Pregnancy in dogs lasts between 59 - 72 days. The whelp date usually falls on day 63
When will you know which puppy is mine?
- Temperament testing is done around 11 weeks of age and this is when we decide which pup will be best suited to each waiting home.
When are ear crops done?
- At 6-8 weeks of age is when I take the pups for ear crops at our ear crop veterinarian.
What age can my puppy come home?
- At 11 weeks is when puppies are ready to go home or enter our Advanced Puppy Program
Do you only sell to show homes?
- No. The majority of puppies are sold as gorgeous companions. Only a select few are chosen to be competitive prospects in conformation shows and/or performance venues. For these prospects, we want potential owners to have experience in some sort of competitive sport prior to getting one of these prospects.
How much are puppies?
-All puppies companion or prospect are $4800. This includes all age appropriate shots, deworming, ear crop and tail docked. We also offer puppies from our Advanced Puppy Program click here for info.
Are your dogs health tested?
-Yes we do health testing on the stock we are breeding. We typically do OFA preliminary testing, which occurs before the dog is 2 years old. Health testing is a tool in breeding but not a guarantee that all puppies will be free of any disease. There are many factors we take into consideration when pairing a male and female dog and health is just one part of the process.
Can I choose what color my puppy is?
No. I don't place puppies by color, instead I place them by temperament matched for each family's needs.
