Happy New Year 🥳
As we say goodbye to one year and welcome the next, sometimes all we really need is a hug.
Not big promises or loud celebrations, just warmth, comfort, and a moment to breathe. Ending the year with love makes the new one feel less heavy already.
Dogs remind us how simple kindness can be. Their loyalty, affection, and calm presence support our mental health and emotional well being every day. Pet companionship brings peace, reduces stress, and turns hard moments into softer ones, especially during times of change.
Here’s to a new year that arrives gently. May it bring healing, safety, and quieter joy into our lives. Hold your loved ones close, cherish your pets, and step forward with hope and gratitude.

You may hear us mention limber tail, also commonly called limp tail, cold tail, or swimmer’s tail, especially with hardworking dogs.

Limber tail is a temporary muscle strain at the base of the tail. It often happens after intense activity, cold exposure, swimming, long hunts, or extended time in a crate or trailer.

You’ll usually notice
• The tail hanging limp or drooping
• Limited or no wagging
• Sensitivity near the base of the tail
• The dog otherwise acting fairly normal

The good news is that limber tail is typically short lived and improves with rest, warmth, and time. Most dogs feel much better within a few days.

Working and hunting dogs are especially prone to it because of how much they use their bodies. Knowing what it is, and what it isn’t, helps prevent unnecessary worry and allows us to manage it appropriately.

As always, if symptoms persist or your dog seems uncomfortable beyond a few days, it’s best to consult your veterinarian.

Education helps us take better care of the dogs we love. 🐾

People say it all the time:

“I promise, they’ll have a good home.”
But what that means to me, as a breeder, goes so far beyond what most people think.

A “good home” isn’t just a nice house.
It isn’t square footage or a fenced yard or matching dog bowls.

It’s a feeling.
A standard.
A commitment.
A heart-space where a dog is truly seen, deeply loved, and intentionally cared for.

A good home is someone who understands this isn’t “just a dog.”
This is a piece of my heart.
A life I stayed up with at 2 AM.
A life I prayed over when they were the size of a lemon.
A life whose first breath I celebrated… and whose first latch I protected.

A good home is someone who shows up for that dog, not just the cute moments.

Someone who:
• rearranges their schedule without complaining.
• gets on the floor and comforts them through fear stages.
• trims nails even when the dog wiggles.
• shows patience through the puppy chaos.
• doesn’t quit when it gets inconvenient.

A good home is someone who asks questions, not someone who pretends they already know.

Someone who chooses growth.
Consistency over shortcuts.
Love over frustration.

A good home is someone who sends updates not because they HAVE to, but because they WANT to.

Those messages mean more to me than people realize.
When I see your puppy smiling in your arms.
When I see them with your kids.
When I see them sleeping in their new bed.

My heart exhales.

Because that’s when I know they’re safe.
That’s when I know I made the right choice.

A good home is someone who honors the contract not because it’s a rule, but because it protects the dog.

Someone who understands:
“If life ever falls apart, this puppy comes back to me.”

Not Craigslist.
Not a shelter.
Not a stranger.
Me.

A good home is someone who remembers that behind every puppy is a breeder who cared so deeply it hurt sometimes.

Who cried over the weak ones.
Who weighed them through the night.
Who kept mama comfortable.
Who didn’t travel because babies needed her.
Who poured time, money, emotion, prayer, and intention into every moment of their beginning.

A good home values that.
Respects that.
And cherishes the puppy because of it.

A good home isn’t perfect.
It’s present.
It’s committed.
It’s willing.
It’s loving.

A good home is someone who looks at this dog and thinks:
“You’re not here to make my life cuter, you’re here to be part of my family.”

That’s what I look for.
That’s what matters to me.
Not perfection.
Not aesthetics.
Not status.

But heart.
Real, patient, everyday love.

Because when I send a puppy home, I’m not “selling a dog.”
I’m trusting a stranger with a life I’ve carried in my hands.
A life I’ve already loved deeply.

And a good home is the kind of home where that love continues for the whole lifetime of the dog.

🤍

The Dog

A dog has an extraordinary gift — it remembers every act of kindness.
It doesn’t matter if it’s big or small: a gesture, a scrap of food, a gentle word — it all stays in its heart forever.
And with that loyalty, it will guard its human’s home until its very last breath.

In this self-centered world, a dog is the only truly selfless friend — it won’t leave, betray, or turn away.
It’ll stay with you when you have everything, and when you’ve lost it all.
When you’re strong and when your body fails.
It won’t laugh at your tears or judge your mistakes.

A dog will curl up at your feet on the cold ground, enduring wind, rain, or snow — just to stay close.
Its only wish is simple: to be near you.

It will kiss your hand even when that hand can no longer give.
It will lick your wounds as if to say, “The world can be cruel, but I’m here.”

It guards your sleep — whether you rest in a palace or on a sidewalk.
Wealth or poverty means nothing to it; only the person matters.

When everyone walks away, it stays.
When everyone goes silent, it’s still there — with eyes full of quiet understanding.

Even when luck turns its back and your world falls apart, the dog remains beside you —
looking at you with the same faithful, unwavering love, like the sun that rises every morning.

Because a dog doesn’t understand “tomorrow.”
It loves here and now — with its whole being, asking for nothing in return.

And that’s why, in a world full of betrayal and disappointment,
a dog remains the one creature that still reminds us what true, pure love looks like —
the kind that stays until the very end. ❤️
