🏠 Our Breeding Philosophy and Practices

Home-Raised with Love Every dog in our program lives as a beloved family member in our home environment.

This enriched environment creates confident, well-adjusted puppies ready for their new homes.

Selective Breeding Standards

• We breed only dogs with exceptional temperaments, sound health, and proven genetic backgrounds
• Limited, carefully planned litters each year
• Breeding females are retired at appropriate ages and live out their lives in loving homes
• Every breeding decision prioritizes the welfare of our dogs over financial considerations

Optimal Puppy Development

• Puppies remain with their mother and littermates for a minimum of 8 weeks
• Early Neurological Stimulation protocols during weeks 3-16
• Progressive socialization introducing new people, surfaces, sounds, and experiences
