My puppies are raised and trained in my home. I put a lot of care into socializing my puppies so they can transition easily into their new lives with their forever families. I utilize the following enrichment methods: Basic Manners, Initial House Training, Various Surfaces, Sound Stimulation, Household Desensitization, Various People, and Socialized with Adult Dogs.
I prioritize the health and well-being of each one of my puppies, and I follow all appropriate puppy health protocols.
Your puppy may come with extra benefits, like a small bag of food or a toy carrying the scent of their littermates.

Wendy offers options to help you easily get your new puppy home.
If you’re nearby, you can visit in person to pick up your pup. If you’re far away, you can travel by car or plane.
“I do not ship puppies. I will try my best to meet at half way point or you may come pick your puppy up from my home. ”
We’ll meet at a mutually convenient halfway point to drop off your puppy. Once your application is approved, we’ll coordinate the details for your pick-up day together.
