Thoughts?
I don’t totally disagree as long as the funds to take care of the puppy are there.
We may be entering the world of bartering again!!

You want a puppy but don’t have the money?
You’re a carpenter? Cool inbox me.
You’re a mechanic? Cool inbox me.
You’re a welder? I’ve got fencing to do
You own your own business? Cool inbox me.
You have something to trade? Cool inbox me.

The point is I have something you want and you might have something I want/need. Business is business. Value is value!!

A long read but worth the time.

As puppies head to their new homes I wanted to touch base on a common issue that breeders come across with new owners.

Realistic Expectations

You go to the breeders home. The pups are all social. They are quiet in the pen. The breeder shows you videos of them being totally relaxed at a dog show. All looks amazing and you bring your puppy home.

Then reality hits. The puppy may cry in the crate for the first few nights making you tired and agitated. The happy social puppy is refusing to greet the half dozen overly excited friends you invited over to see your new puppy. The puppy refuses to walk on a leash. Many are wondering how did my perfect puppy turn into a nightmare.

So let’s discuss realistic expectations of when a puppy goes home. First of all the puppy has been in the breeders home since birth. They had their mother and often littermates. They had their routine, were taught expectations and were completely in their comfort zone.

Now suddenly they are taken to a totally new environment. Picture yourself being dropped into an unknown country, often in a different part of the world. You know only a few words of their language. Differnt trees, animals, smells, temperature and people. Now in the middle of this we are switching up your routine, decide to have a party with people you dont know, and ask you to do jobs you have no idea about. Overwhelming to say the least.

This is what every puppy goes through when going to their new home. Stress manifests in different forms. From not eating, reluctancy to play and greet people. Being apprehensive at the vet’s office or as strangers reach for them. Diarrhea, vomiting and being depression can occur.

So what can you as a new owner do to help your little one acclimate?

- most puppies take 3-4 weeks to acclimate to their new home. Repeat after me THREE to FOUR WEEKS! Not a 1-2 days. I can’t stress this enough about how much time is needed for a dog or puppy to feel comfortable in their new home!
- limit guests during the first week. We understand you are excited to show off your new baby but they need time to adjust. Plan on waiting 1-2 weeks before inviting people over
- ask guest to sit on the ground and let the puppy approach them. No squealing and grabbing the puppy
- set up a good routine
- restrict the puppy to a small area of the house. This not only reduces them being overwhelmed but also allows you to watch them
- don’t expect a 9-13 week old puppy to walk on a leash. Instead work at home with a leash where they are comfortable. Let them drag the leash, use treats to encourage them to walk with you
- if your puppy is refusing to walk give them time. My first trips to town with puppies a walk around a small block took 1 1/2 hours. We only move when they initiate the movement as they need time to take in the different environment
- understand your puppy needs time to see you as family. Expecting an immediate bond is unrealistic
- train your puppy. This not only helps you to bond but the puppy to look to you for direction and input
- lastly be patient. Don’t declare “omg there’s something wrong with this dog”. Nothing occurs overnight. Outings should be planned at puppy speed. So while you might imagine a fun walk around the lake in reality your puppy might only be able to handle walking a short distance that day.

Most outings for me take a long time, as I am often just standing still as the puppy cautiously explores the new environment. Patience is key!

Remember if the puppy was wonderful at the breeder’s house but now struggling you as the owner need to help the puppy adjust which takes time, patience and training. have realistic expectations and give the puppy positive experiences. Each puppy is an individual, don’t compare your current puppy to past pets and judge their behavior based on how another dog handled things. Lastly, try to see thing’s from a puppy’s perspective and adjust situations accordingly.

Safe travels to Icicle ❤️ She's heading to NJ and will be showing off a nice ear crop soon!

01/13/2023

Let's take a moment for some real talk 😅 DO NOT leave your dogs unattended with a blanket, a toy, or anything they can get a blockage from!!! I don't care if they've never chewed anything a day in their lives it takes one time and you'll have an almost 2.5k vet bill from a pretty serious surgery 😩
Pray for my bank account and all my dummy dogs 🤦‍♀️

Little miss Kelee was the first to go home today! ❤️ We will miss her tons, but she's got an amazing family!

This little guy is the remaining pup for 5️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ pet only! Pickup or transport can be arranged. He is AKC registered with a 2 year health guarantee and contract.

*Parents pictured*

01/05/2023

Today ONLY these 3 are HEAVILY reduced to 5️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ pet only!! Place a deposit by today and we can arrange pickup or transport for one of these sweethearts to join your family.

All come with a 2 year health guarantee and contract. AKC registered. Full rights to approved homes (price will differ for full).

These are amazing babies and none of our future litters will ever hit this price again. We have a family emergency so we will be traveling a bit soon and it's not fair to them to not have all the attention in the world so they are priced to find their families asap.

I shared this from a fellow breeder friend.

POTENTIAL OWNER: How much is the puppy?
BREEDER: $2,000
POTENTIAL OWNER: What?? It's way too expensive!!
BREEDER: What do you think would be a good price?
POTENTIAL OWNER: No more than $500. You breeders are so over priced.
BREEDER: I am sorry you see it this way, why don't you try it yourself?
POTENTIAL OWNER: But I've never done it!
BREEDER: For FREE I can teach you how to do it, and in addition you will have the knowledge to do it again.
POTENTIAL OWNER: Perfect, thank you!
BREEDER: To start you will need a female(average cost $3000 and up). Also a male(average cost $3000 and up) or semen (average $1500 and up). You will need to do genetic & health testing on them, averages about $1200 per dog. Raise and provide daily care, feeding & grooming for 2 years. (So minimal $250 per month)
POTENTIAL OWNER: But I don't have that much money...
BREEDER: For $500 you can raise a litter and then keep one of the puppies. Obviously, you will pay the cost of whelping & care.
POTENTIAL OWNER: I can do that.
BREEDER: OK so I have a female due to whelp in 2 weeks. You will need to be available 24/7 around the clock for at least 8 weeks to help with delivery and care.
POTENTIAL OWNER: Eight weeks?? it's way too much time for me! I have to work.
BREEDER: You will also need the reproductive vet to do xrays($200-$300), possibly progesterone testing($100-$250) & C-section($2000-$5000) and initial vet care on pups until old enough to be placed.
Have on hand a scale, thermometer, latex gloves, sanitizer, absorbent tissues, scissors, hemostats, heating pad, whelping box, blankets, cleaning supplies, appropriate food with supplements for mothers, formula, medications & hand feeding supplies in case of emergency....
POTENTIAL OWNER: But I don't have all these things!
BREEDER: For $1000 you can buy them.
POTENTIAL OWNER: Ummm .... You know, I think it might be better if I just buy a puppy.
BREEDER: Wise decision.
For us breeders there are no vacations or holidays, while you go to visit with family & friends we are home at our dogs side caring for them. It is a no breaks commitment.
THIS IS THE REALITY
When you choose a professional you don't only pay for the puppy but also:
Tools, knowledge, experience, love, time, sacrifices, etc...

Don't forget we do have payment options available if you've wanted a pup, but don't have the full amount upfront! We want all of our pups to go to loving homes and understand a big purchase is easier to do with payments. Plans are set up case by case with weekly, biweekly, or monthly options up to a planned date.
