Our pups are socialized from the moment of birth.  We
are there when the pups are born and stay with mom  
through the entire delivery.  Just to lend a helping paw
if  she needs it.  At birth, after mom has cleaned up the
pup it is weighed, has it's picture taken and an id tag is
placed on the pup.  This ensures us that we know who is
who in the group.  We record the weight and id number
then monitor it daily to ensure proper growth.
We work with the pups daily.  At first just getting them
use to human touch.  Then as their eyes begin to open, we
gently start to socialize them.  We have several
socialization skills that each pup goes through to ensure
their safe transition from our family into yours.  For
example we use various textures under their feet to get
them use to carpet, vinyl, wood and so on. We also get
them use  to the everyday sounds of the household. This
helps the little guys explore, and truly trust humans.  
From the very beginning they need to understand we are
here to care for them, love them, and spoil them rotten!  
If you are interested in one of our babies, please

Update List!!

in Tennessee.  This way we can meet and greet the new parents and
answer any and all questions that they may have.  This can take
place after the puppy is 8 weeks old.  If pick up is not an option
for you then shipping arrangements can be made.  Either way we
will not allow a pup to leave our kennel before he or she is at least
8 weeks old.  Our shipping fee is usually around $300.00, although
pups shipped to Canada and Alaska tend to run a bit more.  The
shipping fee includes a health certificate (required by the airlines,
and the state to which the pup is being shipped), a pet carrier, a
blanket for snuggling, air way bill, transportation to the airport,
shipper's certificate, acclimation certification and last but not
least $500.00 of Airline insurance.  All shipping fees and
insurance are prepaid on my end .  All you have to do is pick up
your baby at the airport!!!  Please remember shipping prices are
not set by me, but by the airlines so all prices are subject to
change.
