Eric has been certified by Good Dog's screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices. When you're ready to reach out, feel free to ask any questions about the breed, their program, or specific puppies. You'll also have the chance to share a bit about yourself and what you're looking for in a new companion. Together, you'll choose the puppy that's right for you, stay in touch with regular updates, and plan how to bring your new puppy home.
Puppy prices range from $1,000 - $1,500 and include a non-refundable deposit of $250.
“We do not ask for deposits till after all pups have been checked by the vet, vaccinated, BAER tested, and microchipped.”
Eric may provide a written contract or health guarantee when you purchase a puppy. This helps protect both you and your breeder, ensuring that you both have a clear understanding of the terms of your puppy purchase. If Eric offers a contract or guarantee, the details will be personalized by them. If you have any questions or want to know more, don’t hesitate to reach out to Eric directly.
Starting at the time the pup's eyes open, we encourage our children to hold and play with the pups to help socialize them. After 4 weeks we start them on a mash and progressively move to hard food. While being monitored we introduce toys and encourage outdoor play and potty training. At around 5 to 6 weeks we start introducing loud noises, car rides, walks with leashes, meeting different animals and people. During this time we also work on basic obedience and commands. I utilize the following enrichment methods: Potty Training, Crate Training, "No" Biting or Chewing, Sit Command, Socialized with Children, Socialized with Adult Dogs, Socialized with Cats, Sound Stimulation, Early Neurological Stimulation, Touch Desensitization, Grooming Desensitization, Chew, e.g. Bone, Strangers, Various Surfaces , Fireworks , Stores, Car Rides, and Outdoors (when Weather permits).
All puppies get a check by two days after birth, they are weighed daily to ensure proper development. After 6 weeks they are seen by the vet for eyes, lungs, heart, the first round of shots, BAER test for hearing, and microchipped. Copies of all paperwork will be given at the time of purchase.
Your puppy may come with extra benefits, like a small bag of food or a toy carrying the scent of their littermates. While Blackwood Dogos hasn’t shared specifics yet, we encourage you to reach out directly to learn what thoughtful extras they may include to help your puppy transition comfortably into their new home.
