How the puppies are raised

Puppies are handled several times a day from birth and get early neurological stimulation (ENS) and socialization. They are litter box trained and crate trained, vet checked with current vaccines, and dewormed before going home. Each puppy goes home with a goodie bag, registration and health records, and ongoing breeder support.
