Water Exposure!
Water exposure is crucial in puppy development because it helps them build confidence, coordination, and physical fitness. It also teaches them important life skills such as swimming and water safety, exposure to water at a young age can help prevent a fear of water from developing later in life, and is an important aspect of a puppy's socialization and physical development!
Despite their usual groomed appearance, my dogs aren't always in pretty fluffy haircuts! They love to just be dogs and play in the mud, dirt, dust, and dirty water, rolling around without a care in the world. Watching them run and get dirty is a reminder that they are happiest when they can let loose and embrace their natural instincts. It brings me joy to see them in their element, living in the moment and enjoying the simple pleasures of life! I wish we could all think like our dogs do!
So while they may not always look picture-perfect, their muddy adventures are a beautiful reminder, to let our dogs, simply be dogs! ❤️❤️

Sound exposure 🤩
As breeders, we push the importance of exposing our puppies to a variety of stimuli, including loud and unfamiliar noises in unfamiliar places. This exposure helps them build confidence and adaptability, preparing them for the unpredictable nature of the world around them. By introducing them to different environments and sounds at a young age, we can help them become well-adjusted and resilient adults. It may seem odd to some, but this intentional exposure is a crucial part of their early development and socialization, ensuring they grow into confident and well-rounded dogs. Here in Kentucky we have an abundance of people who run derby mowers and we all know how obnoxious the sounds can be, flair has not a care in the world. Not a shake not a tremble! 🤩
The face you can never be mad at 🤦🏼♀️😂

Cardinals Go home Day❤️
This litter has grown so fast and I guess since I will be retiring mocha, and maybe even Minnie, these guys are really pulling my heart strings a bit. They have been so good. So smart. And so happy, each with such different personalities, to say the least my heart is really breaking watching them leave but I’m happy to know they are going to the best homes and are going to make magnificent pets for their new families. And I’m so excited to watch them blossom into their new journey ❤️❤️
I know this may look gross and just like “ok you didn’t have to show us puppies pooping” but it is SO much more than that. Consistent hours watching with correctional placement to the potty tray (ok maybe I cheated and moved my couch next to them so I can binge watch Netflix and watch them) 😂 but anyway, this is SO MUCH more than just puppies going potty. As you see they are in a very large play area. I cleaned their area at 6pm and THIS is at 10pm last night! And believe me, Their mommas have left it up to me to be a regular pooper scooper now. I can not be happier with how FAST these guys catch on to things! Now there is a few tiny pees in there. But that’s ok! Their bladders are tiny! But, This will make it for a much easier transition woth house training as they are given 1 designated area to potty!
ENS training done right! 3 week old Starling already a pro on the grooming table! #poodle #stunning #tripoodle

Pet socialization is important for many reasons. Socializing your dog ensures its ability to react to the world in a healthy way, without fear or aggression. Dogs who have not been socialized with other animals and other humans can become fearful in new situations, such as meeting new people, being around other pets, or visiting new places. Through intentional socialization, you can help reduce anxiety for your dog, while also reducing the risk of aggressive incidents or behavioral issues.
We hope everyone is safe in these Kentucky Storms!!
