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 contact me for more
information.  I can be reached at marsha@mandmkennel.com or

Update List!!
We prefer to have you pick your pup up here at our kennel
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
$325.00, 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.
