Note: We will periodically update the Charting Weight above as the puppy grows. Please understand that we cannot guarantee any puppy's adult size.

Personality Testing

We use the Elite Breeder Puppy Personality Testing & Matching to match each puppy to the right family and each family to the right puppy.  Be sure you understand Why Getting A Professionally-Matched Puppy Is So Important.  We will perform the testing at 7 weeks old and will post the results on this page at that time.   

Early Potty Training, Socialization, Family-Rearing & So Much More ...

We put a great deal of time, care, money, and work into our puppies to ensure they are the best pet they can be for you and your family.  

For example, we begin early potty-training with our puppies as soon as they are able to walk.   Raising Potty-Trained Puppies Using Their Natural Instincts explains about the approach we use with our puppies.  Additionally, our puppies are raised in the hustle and bustle of our busy home with all our children and lots of pets, which provides a lot of early socialization and helps them grow into well-adjusted pets.  There are many Benefits of Family-Reared Puppies that help make life easier for you when you bring your fur-baby home. 

Starting at just three days old, our puppies begin a carefully designed enrichment program that goes far beyond the basics. While we incorporate Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS) and Early Scent Introduction (ESI), we also utilize our own thoughtfully developed puppy stimulation protocol. This exclusive approach includes a wide range of early sensory, tactile, and environmental exposures to help nurture confident, adaptable puppies. These experiences lay the foundation for a variety of real-world situations. 

We also begin basic command training with each litter. While they won’t have fully mastered these commands before going home, they will have been introduced to key cues like “Sit,” “Down,” “Stay,” and “Come.” This early start gives their new families a helpful foundation to build upon.
