I have been breeding for years, and I own the parents.
We don's ship our pups because we like to have interested people come to our home, visit with the pups and parents and it gives us a chance to get to know "you" and little. Our pups are like our babies and we make sure that they are going to the best home possible.
My parents and pups live in our home, pups are raised in either the living room or my daughters room until they are old enough to be moved into the kitchen ( and I wouldn't have it any other way).
We health test the parents for eyes, hearing and patellas. I am always available to answer any and all questions you may have!
