Striving for the "in your pocket" pup. Our goals are to have diabetic dogs geared for kids.

When you get your 8 week old puppies, please keep these images in mind. Their bones do not even touch yet. They plod around so cutely with big floppy paws and wobbly movement because their joints are entirely made up of muscle, tendons, ligaments with skin covering. Nothing is fitting tightly together or has a true socket yet.

When you run them excessively or don't restrict their exercise to stop them from overdoing it during this period you don't give them a chance to grow properly. Every big jump or excited bouncing run causes impacts between the bones. In reasonable amounts this is not problematic and is the normal wear and tear that every animal will engage in.

When you're letting your puppy jump up and down off the lounge or bed, take them for long walks/hikes, you are damaging that forming joint. When you let the puppy scramble on tile with no traction you are damaging the joint.

You only get the chance to grow them once. A well built body is something that comes from excellent breeding and a great upbringing-BOTH, not just one.

Once grown you will have the rest of their life to spend playing and engaging in higher impact exercise. So keep it calm while they're still little baby puppies and give the gift that can only be given once.

[NOTE: This photo is just picture of a pond in the summer. NOT a picture of a pond with the toxin.] Cyanobacteria can have many different looks, including not being visible at all. Link to Kentucky Division of Water for more photos and information: https://eec.ky.gov/Environmental-Protection/Water/Monitor/Pages/HABS.aspx #:~:text=Harmful%20Algal%20Blooms%20Division%20of%20Water&text=A%20harmful%20algal%20bloom%2C%20or,skin%20in%20animals%20or%20humans.
"Death follows minutes to hours after exposure to a small amount of this toxin." As the weather gets hotter, ponds can start to have "algae blooms." The water itself can look like pea soup, or like green paint is spread on the surface of the water. Sometimes it is not visible at all. Some of these blooms are cyanobacteria, which can produce potent toxins. Dogs are exposed when they wade in the water and either drink the water directly, or lick it off themselves when they come out. There is no antidote; treatment is supportive and many dogs don't survive. If you believe your dog has been exposed, bathe him immediately. If he has any symptoms, bring him right in to a veterinarian. See comments for more information about signs and treatment. (Most ponds that look like this are not dangerous, but it is not possible to tell which ones are toxic and which ones aren't except by having the water tested; If in doubt, keep pets out.)

Some more photos of the pups outside. They are now 7.5 weeks old. They passed their final vet check with flying colors. They are all set to start heading home late next week. I can't believe I still have a couple puppies left, I have some families that had to wait to get a puppy..... so I have a couple left. This does not happen very often, normally our pups are all on hold by 3 weeks old.

Ears above the ground.  Puppies trying to take flight last night. Love those Springer ears.

The puppies got outside for the first time, since the snow has melted and the temps have warmed up. They were so cute - the first 15 minutes they hid out by Tom's boots and under Riley. Then the playing started and they began to explore.

Pups available - ready in 2 weeks. The only female is taken. Do your research everyone - neutered males make amazing pets. My males LOVE my kids and adore being with you. They are very loyal and loving. 🥰

Pups are growing quickly now, they are starting to wrestle and play. They love attention - tails wagging like crazy when they see and hear you.

We will no longer HOLD pups without a deposit.
