BORROWED.....
Why does a purebred puppy from a ethical reputable preservation breeder cost so much?
1. Health Testing on Sire and Dam
2. Routine Veterinary Care
3. Breeding Costs. Progesterone Testing, Stud Fees, Brucellosis Testing, Travel to and from. TCI, Frozen Semen, Chilled Semen, Shipped Semen
4. Quality Puppy Food and Supplements
5. Whelping Supplies (boxes, pens, toys, expendables, supplements, other containment)
6. Vet Checks for Puppies, Vaccines, Dewormers, Microchips
7. CKC registration and Microchip Registration
8. My time. It takes about a week of my time arranging the breeding and to raise the puppies until 8 weeks that is a minimum of 1500 hours of work and effort.
9. Puppy kits, printed materials, and health information.
10. My time spent educating owners and continuing to give advice for the life of the dog.
I won’t include the club memberships, championships, travel to shows, advertising, hundreds of hours of time spent promoting purebred dogs. I won’t include missed vacations, sleepless nights, very high repro vet bills, missed breedings, c sections, singletons, or bad luck. All expensive and we do it for no other reason than to preserve our breeds.
If I hear another person say they are just looking for a pet and not a showdog then my advice to them is go ahead and buy a car with no warranty, no manual, no VIN or registration and the odometer is broken. Good luck with that. I hope you have a good trainer and good insurance. Most of what we produce are just pets. Loved cherished companions that go to carefully screened homes. it is only the exceptional ones we breed. That therein lies the difference.

Well, that didn't go according to plan. Karma's ultrasound told us she isn't in whelp so we're going to the plan B.

We are making progress on getting copies of Karma's North America Diving Dogs - NADD certificates and the previous owners never bothered to register the titles with CKC so that'll be next on the list of things to do. Karma is a little rock star at diving!
Puppies (fingers crossed) should be due Mid to late January 2024. https://www.echoview.ca/plannedkarmahunterlitter

This speaks volumes for the temperament of our males. Jackson and Ryder seek out each other's company both in the house and around the ranch. Where you find one....you will most likely find the other. So please with how these two boys have matured.
