The only thing that makes living through summers of regular 110ยฐf days bearable ๐
An escape from all the negative noise that seems to be consuming society.

Update!: wow! Great response. I have a list of people I'm working on getting back to at the moment. I'm not going to take any more applications for her for now BUT tomorrow I will be updating this page with my next two litters. One is being born the end of this month. That is likely a small litter but will confirm by xray on the 21st. The next breeding will be due around the beginning of July. More info to follow!
Okay guys! It looks like I will have one puppy from our current litter. Black female, she is super fun, smart, and driven with a nice off switch. She is going to be on the smaller side with an athletic build. She's confident, very social, and food motivated.
I would love to see her in a home that wants to do sports or as a demo dog for a trainer. She would also do great in an active companion home.
I always prefer that puppies go to homes where there is at least one other dog in the home.
If you already have an application on file please feel free to text me. If you don't have an application on file, send me an email at [email protected] and I will set up a time to talk with you!
As a professional dog trainer, breeding and raising litters of puppies is a fascinating & extremely rewarding experience.
Seeing the development of these guys in warp speed is absolutely mind-boggling. The development at this stage is rapid, the behaviors change daily, and if you're not paying attention, it's easy to miss things.
Unfortunately, many breeders drop the ball when it comes to the purposeful raising of puppies. Training and conditioning should start EARLY!! It's such a missed opportunity to develop healthy and useful behaviors as so much can be influenced at this age.
These guys are just 3 weeks old. They started the potty training just a few days ago. I start as soon as I can see them starting to walk.
The whelping box gets divided into separate sleeping and pottying areas. You can see the sleeping area at the back, and at this stage, the potty area takes up the majority of the box. I use grates for the potty area to keep them clean and poop foot free. At this point the grates are turned upside down but once the puppies are a little bigger they will get turned over and fit into the bathroom trays.
The bed area is cleaned as many times as necessary to ensure there is never any poop or pee. While I spot clean the ๐ฉ in the potty area throughout the day, I only remove everything for a full cleaning 1x per day. I want the sleeping area to smell clean and the potty area... to smell like a potty area. Obviously, within reason, this isn't an excuse for keeping puppy areas dirty.
As this progresses, their sleeing and play areas will expand, and their potty area will decrease to a litter pan. Eventually, they will be given full access to the room with litter boxes for potty. Then, around 5 or 6 weeks old,they will be introduced to the doggy door for outside potty. By the time they go home at 10 weeks old they are generally 95% clean indoors with just the occasional pee accident next to the door.
Their ears and eyes opened around 14 or 15 days old,
The babies first walk around the property! ๐๐
Big adventure for little legs โฐ๏ธ๐ฅพ
I can't belive in just a couple more weeks these babies will be going to their new homes.
We have a black and chocolate planned for later this summer. ๐ค๐ค This litter will be Champion sired and parents fully health tested including hips, elbows, eyes, heart (echocardiogram) and DNA. Taking an interest list now. Phone interview required. โ๏ธ

Puppy nursery got an upgrade this week!
๐ถ๐ผ๐ถ
This is the start of the potty training set-up that begins at 3 weeks old. ๐ฝ
Our training lobby is a long narrow room, 14'x40'. While I was away in March for a girl's weekend Tim built a temporary wall (likely to become permanent as I LOVE the new set up) so we could split it in two. One side is a private puppy whelping/rearing room with its own entrance. The other side is our bathroom, lobby and access to our client dog rooms.
Last night I added a textured linoleum floor (temporary) for better traction for the puppies when they start walking. It's also easier to clean than the tile flooring with the grout. I've used this flooring for my last three litters and we also have it down in our client dog rooms and I absolutely love it.
I also added the playpen frame. This will be sectioned off (currently has two 42"x42" whelping boxes) as the puppies grow to facilitate Potty training. At the start of next week each whelping box will be expanded by 2' so that the begining potty areas can be added. As the puppies become more reliable with hitting the potty ares the boxes will be expanded. Eventually they will have access to the outside with their own private yard via a doggy door.
Eventually we will be adding an additional building to the property that will have our training room, client dog rooms, office and public restrooms. My puppy nursery will move to out current client dog rooms but for now this setup is perfect ๐ฅฐ

Every day is take your dog to work day when you're a professional dog trainer! ๐พ๐พ
For those of you who don't know me, ๐๐ฝ my name is Amy and I've been a professional trainer for almost 20 years. You can check out more on our other Instagram page: @myclevercanine
Zoey, one of our yellow girls, joined me last week as I was working with one of our newest training dogs, Bene a young GSD mix. Bene lacked some confidence and initially didn't want to take any food in training.
Having a happy, social and engaged dog like Zoey join the training session give this boy the confidence boost he needed! ๐ ๐
In this video we're working on helping Bene find the heel position on my left side by rewarding him each time he chooses to go there. This is our first step in teaching an informal heel.
