What's included

Enrichment and socialization

The socialization of this breed is extremely important. We begin socialization right away with holding and cuddling from the 1st day. During the time they are with us, we have friends and family over very frequently to engage in play and handling. By the time they are ready to go to their new homes, they have been exposed to as many interactions as possible. They live in our home with all of our babies, and are never left in any kennel outside by themselves. I utilize the following enrichment methods: Socialized with other animals, Introduced to people of different ages and appearances, Socialized with other dogs, Daily handling, Socialized with children, Surface & tactile stimulation, Various sounds, Bathing, grooming and nail trimming., positive experiences in all situations, Early stages of crate training, Outdoors (when Weather permits), Various Surfaces , Early Neurological Stimulation, Name recognition , Crate Training, Human Interactions , Litter Box Trained, Socialized with Other Animals, Sound Stimulation, Household Desensitization, Grooming Desensitization, Toys, e.g. Ball, Touch Desensitization, Strangers, and Noises .

Puppy health practices

Our puppies have dewclaws removed by age 3 days. Deworming protocols start at 2 weeks and continue until the first vet visit and fecal tests. Should the result be positive, we continue for the duration of the time the puppies are with us. All puppies come with a record of vaccines and are microchipped prior to leaving our home.

Extras

We send our puppies home with Microchip, Registration, and Vet records.
