Health & Genetics

Environmentally and Socially Responsible

Our parent dogs have all of the hip, elbow, eye, heart, thyroid, patella and DNA clearances recommended for their breed(s).  Our dogs are tested at or above the GANA Gold Level.

Parent dogs are continually evaluated and paired to produce puppies with the best temperament, health, intelligence, confidence, structure, style and beauty.

To minimize our impact on the planet, we compost, drive an electric car when possible, avoid plastics and use cloth instead of paper whenever possible.  We proudly support the following:

Lifestyle

Environmentally and Socially Responsible

Socialization

Our dogs live with us on 35 acres near Acadia National Park.  They hike, swim, run through the woods and relax with us.​  They eat foods, treats and supplements exclusively from  Life's Abundance, PawTree, and  NuVet.  


We believe in keeping dogs fit, so using just the right amount of high-quality food is important.  We make sure they get the physical and mental exercise they need to thrive.


Socialization

Environmentally and Socially Responsible

Socialization

We raise our puppies using the Avidog/Good Dog and Puppy Culture protocols with adaptations based on experience and new science. We are constantly learning and making improvements to our process, as more is discovered about puppy development. 


Our puppies are well socialized, started on house training and comfortable in crates when they go to their new homes.  

Socially Responsible

Early Neurological Stimulation

Early Neurological Stimulation

An extremely wide range of people/families provide excellent homes for dogs.  Therefore, we will NOT discriminate on the basis of color, national origin, sex, religion, age, or anything else.  We are dedicated to finding loving homes for our puppies where they will thrive and bring joy to their people.


We are also committed to practicing anti-racism and promoting social justice in both our businesses and in our personal lives.

Early Neurological Stimulation

Early Neurological Stimulation

Early Neurological Stimulation

Each of our puppies is handled daily starting at birth, and receives ENS treatments from the third through the sixteenth day of life.  The result is an increased capacity that positively affects the dog for life and includes:

  •  Cardio-vascular improvement
  •  Stronger adrenal glands
  • More tolerance to stress  
  • Greater resistance to disease 
  • Increased ability to learn 

Puppy Pad / Dog Door

Early Neurological Stimulation

Puppy Pad / Dog Door

Our puppies are puppy-pad trained starting at two weeks of age.  They learn to use a  dog door at 4 - 6 weeks of age. 


By the time they go home, they are going outside to potty reliably.  


All you need to do is get them used to YOUR home/yard/dog-door, stick to a schedule, and watch them closely!!
