Puppies are crate trained before they go to their forever homes. I start the house training to grass as early as 5 weeks. Obedience training is done on puppies that are older. I utilize the following enrichment methods: exposure to agility tunnel, wobble board and other novel items, conformation stacking and nail trimming, isolation conditioning, Chew, e.g. Bone, Toys, e.g. Ball, also have lots of friends and family who come over to handle the puppies and help out with the puppies daily. I do not take them to public places to expose them to people as they are not fully vaccinated until 16 weeks. , Early stages of crate training, car riding , Various Surfaces , Noises , Touch Desensitization, Grooming Desensitization, Sound Stimulation, Household Desensitization, Socialized with Adult Dogs, and Socialized with Cats.
All of the above are noted on the puppy check with the exclusion of Hip Dysplasia. However, the parents are checked and cleared at 2 years of age. All puppies get their first wellness puppy check at 8 weeks at which time they are vaccinated, dewormed, and microchipped.
Your puppy may come with extra benefits, like a small bag of food or a toy carrying the scent of their littermates.
