Because we loved them first...
We raised your puppy’s mother and took her everywhere with us, loving her, training her, socializing her, watching her grow. We scrutinized her conformation, her temperament, her movement.
We completed her health testing and provided the best pre and post whelping care possible. Because we loved them first.
We missed life events, family gatherings, work, and sleep. We didn't sleep. When we did, it was in a whelping pen. We wouldn't have had it any other way. Because we loved them first.
We had many conversations with you and asked you all of the questions we could think of. Because we loved them first.
We worried, prayed, and watched over your puppy for weeks. We washed what felt like a million blankets and pads. We cleaned SO MUCH! Because we loved them first.
We were the first to trim their nails. We were the first to give them a bath. We were the ones who gave them confidence, comfort, and encouragement. Because we loved them first.
We will always welcome them back into our home. Even after they go home with you, we still worry. We still have sleepless nights. Because we loved them first.
When you call us with questions or concerns, please don't ever feel like you're bothering us. You're not. Because remember...
We’ve loved them for years before their dam was even born. We will love them until the day they leave this world, and we will love them for the years and years following.
Thank you to all the wonderful people who love our puppies as deeply as we do.
