FAQs

We are located in Idaho, near the Utah border. Most of our puppies go out of state. I am happy to welcome you to my home where the puppies are raised if you would like to fly or drive in to pick up your puppy. I can also deliver your puppy to you! I fly in cabin with your puppy to your local airport. Cost is usually between $500.00-$900.00 depending on location and ticket pricing. I can also drive your puppy to your home for a fee depending on your location. I am also happy to meet you at the Pocatello, Idaho Falls, or SLC airport if you fly in to pick up your pup.

The puppies stay with me for 8 weeks while they complete our Developmental Puppy Nursery program. You can plan on picking them up 8 weeks from the day they are born.

This is a great question. THANK YOU for being a conscientious and informed buyer! Our method has been heavily influenced by well researched experts, including The Puppy Culture Method, The BadAss Breeder Protocols, and The Rule of Sevens, among others. At this point, we are using a modified version of all of the above methods, along with our own adjustments and unique additions. We’ve developed this through lots of trial and error with our specific breed. Our method is unique to our family dynamic and the specific goals we have for our puppies. Different breeds have different “jobs,” and we have specific goals for our puppies which may not be realistic for other breeds, and vice versa. Our method has been very successful at providing new families with well-adjusted, bright, and easily trainable puppies. They are very used to new experiences and being handled by humans. Their job is “loving companion.”

On average, they are 12-18-ish pounds full grown. Some are a little smaller, and some are a little bigger. There is no way to guarantee full grown size. I will tell you the full grown size of the parents, and the full grown size of past puppies between the same parents (if they have had a previous litter). While most siblings stay around the same size, we have had litters where there was clearly a pup who was smaller/larger than the rest and remained that way into adulthood.

Puppies are de-wormed every two weeks, and kept up-to-date on vaccinations.

I do not remove dew claws in this breed. They are usually only born with a very small front dew claw, which does not need to be removed. Puppies are dewormed every two weeks, and kept up-to-date on vaccinations. We do not remove dewclaws in this breed. We feel it is unnecessary and interferes with agility.

Puppies are $2,600- 3,600. based on gender, color, and breed. The deposit to join the waitlist is $400, and is not refundable. The deposit goes toward the total cost of your puppy. You can defer your deposit to a future litter of puppies if you would like.

There is a 1 year genetic health guarantee on all of our puppies. We are confident in this guarantee as we do much testing before a breeding is even planned. Should something terrible happen and your dog develops genetic disease by age 1, we will either refund or provide you with a new puppy.
